About the Millennium Fellow
Rishit Jain is a bright law student at the National Law University, Delhi. As a teenager, he has was convinced that a profession is much more than a mere source of income, and with that belief he proceeded into the study of law. He is devoted to the idea that the consequence, or the lack thereof, produced on the ground by a policy, law, or social practice shall be studied. With this in mind, he is working on death-penalty to understand the stark realities that the convicts, undertrials, and their families face. In particular, he finds it significantly important to analyse the consequences faced by those who are vulnerable, and accordingly, he seeks to use this opportunity to understand the living conditions of refugees.
