Introducing "Stories of the Indian Immigrants in Germany: Why Move?", based on a decade of fieldwork, ethnography and participant observations. I had to depend substantially on primary data as there was no book on this topic so far. Releasing in the end of September, 2023.

This is a critique. Good/bad - a separate question. But why are some Ashoka Uni faculty members trying to appropriate Ms. Misra's writing? This critique is not about Ashoka. Let Ms. Misra be her own writer & not be owned by the institution. Set aside your academic god complex.

A colleague is looking for people who have studied religious stakeholder facilitating onward migration both legally or else how in Asia. This is for a journal special issue. Please get in touch if you work on this subject.

My column in @scroll_in "Germany is at the cross-roads of a 'migration ambivalence'. Growing anti-migrant sentiment fuelled by the rising popularity of the far right party (AfD) does little to help Germany project a pro-migrant image for Germany." https://t.co/mh4UXcpI1G

India's obsession with sindoor has a long historical Hindu tradition. From suhaag to ek chutki shindoor to Cannes Sindoor, vermillion has got international attention spreading across politics and Hindi cinema. Is this what we call globalization of primordial identities?

BJP Jails Professor for Exposing its Hypocrisy
