I am the founder of the website Indian Kanoon -- that allows common people to quickly find relevant Indian laws and court judgments. I did my Ph.D. in Computer Science and Engineering from University of Michigan under the guidance of Professor Farnam Jahanian. My Ph.D thesis is here. Earlier I picked up my M.Tech and B.Tech degrees in Computer Science from IIT, Madras. My master's thesis was guided by Prof. C. Siva Ram Murthy. I was born and brought up in Jamshedpur. I did my entire schooling from Rajendra Vidyalaya, Jamshedpur. My detailed resume is here.
