R. Prasad

R. Prasad (born 17 March 1966) is an Indian cartoonist associated with Delhi-based Mail Today daily. Since Mail Today is a joint venture between India Today group and Daily Mail, Prasad's works appear in these publications.

R Prasad was born on 17 March 1966 at Pala, Kottayam in the southern Indian state of Kerala in a Hindu Nair family. He currently lives in Safdarjung Enclave, New Delhi. Prasad's cartoons usually get widely circulated in India for their political insight, humour and irony.
