My field of specialization is Medieval Indian History (Regional History – Malwa). Having done my M.Phil. on Malwa, 1531-1605 and Ph.D. on Malwa under the Mughals, 1562-1707, I have published 30 research papers of which 25 papers deal with various aspects of history of medieval Malwa. One of my papers has been cited by Professor Irfan Habib in his book The Agrarian System of Mughal India 1556-1707 (Second Revised Edition, OUP, New Delhi, 1999, p.435) and another cited by Professor Shahabuddin Iraqi, in his book, Bhakti Movement in Medieval India (Manohar, New Delhi, 2009, p.64). I teach Undergraduate courses on Delhi Sultanate and Postgraduate courses on Political and Socio-cultural history (Later Mughals, 1707-1761).
