Why I Write: Stories about my fieldwork that capture the Pulse of a Changing India

Welcome to illume Insight, a space where fieldnotes turn into reflections, and small stories carry big meanings.

I’m an independent researcher, and over the years, I’ve traveled across classrooms, homes, and communities across India—listening, observing, and trying to understand the ‘why’ behind the ‘what.’

This blog is for anyone who values the richness of qualitative research: policymakers looking for texture behind data, insight managers wanting to sense cultural shifts, and curious readers who know that a conversation on a village swing can say more than a hundred surveys.

I write in a reflective, conversational tone, because I believe the best insights come not just from analysis, but from asking good questions—and being still long enough to hear the answers.

Dive in. Reflect. And if something resonates, let’s talk.
