Journalist and online content writer. I am a former news producer with the NewsX and have had various research stints. I hold a Masters in Public Administration and a Bachelors in Mass Communication with a major in journalism. My interests lie in qualitative public policy research and analysis in urban governance and international relations. I use my blog Critilizers and the newsletter Set Up Circular Cities. When I am not discussing policy and current affairs, I indulge my love for food, travel, and cricket.

Pakistan Unmasking Itself As a Terror State?
In the aftermath of the Pulwama terror attack, India retaliated by hitting the terror camps of the responsible terror organisation located within Pakistani territory. But Pakistan retaliated against this trying to bomb Indian military installations. These actions of Pakistan do not substantiate its claims of being a victim or terror. Or has it shed its mask?
