Have joined Edinburgh University as a Newton International Fellow of the British Academy. Coming from DU & Jamia and a working-class Delhi family, this opportunity means a lot. My new work explores the history of domestic servants in early modern India.

I am very excited to join University of Leicester as an Early Career Leverhulme Fellow. In my research, I will do a social history of astrology in early modern India. I will examine how astrology found a great career in the lives of kings & queens, merchants & ordinary people.

As we progress, what solace does politics offer to those employed on precarious contracts or with no contracts on low salaries? Their lives encapsulate both the injustice of social and economic life
