I write with Khushi Shetty in an article, "Gender discrimination is a multi-faceted problem; hence a single solution cannot bear the brunt of the weight. Steps have to be taken at each stage to make the long journey more approachable and ensure there is true empowerment. Stepping into the unknown future after a pandemic, we need the best leaders we can get, irrespective of gender. Our leaders of today shape the world of tomorrow. It is time we get equal and equitable in who gets to decide what’s to come".

"Any policy implementation should not only be simple but also meaningful. To do this, one of the first things to be kept in mind is the objectives, which should be crystal clear to ensure that all stakeholders understand and participate in the success of the policy. A good way to understand and ensure clarity is to see that the goal is accurate, manageable and achievable" I write in my column NextGen Insights in Meghalaya Monitor.

I write "in recent times, social media has played a crucial role in all walks of life. In public policy, it has taken a new turn to reach out to people, people reaching out to governments, sharing views, developing transparency and bringing in a wee bit of trust. It often serves as a tool for better management of policy-making processes" in my column NextGen Insights in Meghalaya Monitor.
