Biography
I have completed my PhD from IIT Roorkee where my thesis titled as “Assessment of Agricultural Sustainability in Punjab, India: Factors and Farmer's Perspective”. I have analyzed and examined the various dynamics of sustainability in the field of sustainable agricultural development in India. Specifically, I have assessed and compared the sustainability of agricultural systems in Punjab, India, by utilizing indicator-based sustainability Assessment tools. I also worked as a student assistant in one of the ICSSR Sponsored project titled as "Agriculture Sustainability and Economic Efficiency under Conventional and Alternative Farming Systems in the Ganga River Basin." Also, my proficiency in research tools such as STATA, SPSS, SPSS-AMOS, NVivo, QDA and my working knowledge of QGIS and Tableau enables me to employ cutting-edge methods to analyze and visualize data, facilitating innovative research outcomes.
