Indian emigrant, since birth. I have spent most of my life in Netherlands, and not-insignificant time in Iran and Turkmenistan. I edit on topics concerning S. Asian History (sp. Northwestern India, Bengal, and Northeastern India) and Turkmenistan. Rarely, Dutch politics. A newfound interest is Polish Jewish relations.

I do not own any other account over any other internet-platform and anybody who claims otherwise is impersonating me.

Thanks!
