Nivedita Khandekar (Delhi)

Vasundhara Mitra, Journalist

Nivedita Khandekar, from Delhi, is an independent journalist covering development and environmental issues. She is working with Press Trust of India, a news agency, and the Hindustan Times newspaper in Delhi. Nivedita has been writing for newspapers since her final year of college, but she decided to become a full-time journalist in order to be the voice of people in rural areas. She strongly believes that awards and fellowships encourage and assist her in travelling to the interior areas to explore less written topics. Her famous articles are : Kanyakumari - Wind Power: Missing Nuts and Bolts in India's RE Transition Journey. Tamil Nadu - Only Decentralized Renewable Energy Can Help Achieve 2030 Targets: Experts Nagpur - Power Distributors Are Holding Back Rooftop Solar Power in Maharashtra. Tinsukia (Assam) - A wetland too popular for its own good. Arunachal Pradesh- Tiny hamlets take giant steps to save India's Red Panda. New Delhi- India to monitor all large Himalayan glaciers.
