I am an Assistant Professor in the Department Of Philosophy, Kamala Nehru College, University of Delhi। My areas of interest are Ethics, Indian Philosophy, Educational Philosophy, Ecofeminism, Mahabharata Studies and Youth Issues. As a student of Philosophy for last 15 years, I really feel that it is an urgent need to introduce Philosophy as a subject in the schools. Logical skills, ethical outllook and understanding of some epistemologial issues must become an integral part of school curriculum in India if we want to secure better future of this country. Hoping for the best....
