My work

I am contributing to Wikipedia and its sister projects for more than 16 years. After attending WikiConference India 2016, and TTT2017, I felt there is a lot of work to do in the field of awareness of Wikipedia among societies and outreach activities so, other than online editing I am more involved in organising conferences, meetups, GLAM, online photography competitions like Wiki Love Monuments,Wikipedia Asian Month, IIAB Hardware development and doing Hardware Hacks and Hackathon etc.

Disclaimer: I contribute to the Wikimedia projects, and this is the account I try to use for edits or statements I make in a volunteer role. However, the Wikimedia Foundation does not vet all my activity, so edits, statements, or other contributions made by this account may not reflect the views of the Foundation. I also provide paid translation support for the Wikimedia Foundation's organization communications translators group. I contribute to Wikipedia from multiple locations, including my home, office, and at various outreach events, workshops, meetups, and conferences. As a result, I occasionally share an IP address with other volunteer colleagues or participants.
