After having broad exposure to the field of international law, he chose to dwell into a subject where there is a blend of law, sciences and application of technology for the betterment of the society. Hence, he chose Air and Space law as the field of law for to research and work upon as a part of his research while pursuing his M. Phil and thereafter Ph.D. at Jawaharlal Nehru University (J.N.U.)., New Delhi.

He chose the field of Air and Space Law not only for his passion for aircrafts and other objects in flight, but also because this area is an emerging area and does not have many academicians or research scholars, who could contribute to the development of this field, which was and is even growing at a rapid pace. Subsequently, he also co-edited two books with his teachers, which is again a unique achievement in JNU.

It was with the above solid academic and research credentials in this field that he joined NALSAR University of Law, as Assistant Professor in the year 2000. Since then he has closely been associated with the development of NALSAR brick by brick. He was elevated as Associate Professor in 2005 and as Professor in 2009. Thus, in his teaching career, he has grown step by step not just expanding his teaching horizons in the process but also being cognizant of the issues concerning teachers at every level especially which come with a new university. Apart from being recognized for his teaching capabilities by being given timely promotions, he has also been closely associated with the administrative dimensions of this university as he has served in different capacities. He was appointed as the Convener, Examinations Committee and the Proctor. He has also served as the Convener, Moot Court Committee. In all these capacities he had to work with faculties from different backgrounds and students at both graduation and post-graduation levels. These positions also allowed him to introduce several reforms which he had always planned as being necessary to the working and development of this university in three important areas which are central to any university: academics and examinations, moot court and student discipline. In the recent past, he has been contributing to the field of air and space law (including other subjects in international law) by teaching, introducing innovative and value-added courses, publishing, organizing national and international conferences/workshops at the national level and offering advice to the Government of India in matters concerning aerospace law in particular and other international laws in general. Over the past few years he has also been working on draft space legislation for India in association with Indian Space Research Organization (ISRO). At NALSAR, he has spearheaded many unique and contemporary courses on air and space law namely, Masters in Aviation Law and Air Transport Management (MALATM), Masters in Space and Technology Law (MSTL), Post-Graduate Diploma in Aviation Law and Air Transport Management (PGDALATM) and Post-Graduate Diploma in Remote Sensing and GIS Law (PGDRSGL). These courses often receive overwhelming response from the working professionals. Today’s academic education is not only restricted to giving lectures but he believes in organizing different International and national level extracurricular legal activities in university. He has always focused on organizing International/National Moot Courts Competition, Conferences, Workshops, Debate, Literary & Cultural Fest, Penal Discussion, Guest Lectures, Parliamentary Recommendation on bills, Parliamentary debate, Zest etc. He was also instrumental in bringing the final rounds of Manfred Lachs Moot Court competition to NALSAR campus where three sitting World Court judges (Their Excellencies Abdul G. Koroma, Peter Tomka and Hisashi Owada) judged the final round of the competition. He recently had the privilege of organizing the 78th Session of the Institute of International Law (Institut de droit international), an institute which has won Nobel Peace Prize in 1904 for its contribution to the field of International Law and peaceful settlement of disputes. It has as its members many scholars of international law including sitting and retired judges of International Court of Justice and many other international tribunals, professors from Harvard, Oxford and Yale. In terms of career aspirations, he has always enjoyed teaching law in general and teaching Air and Space Law in particular and would in future also intends to direct his energies towards teaching this specialized field of law. Especially, from a developing country perspective, where people are not aware of the significance of this emerging field of law or subject per se, it is important to bring in awareness and contribute to the building-up of knowledge base and talent pool. This branch of law assumes great significance both politically and economically on an international scale in the increasingly globalized world. In future, India (globally) will be confronted with many legal battles in this emerging field of law. Therefore, there is urgent need for teachers and lawyers and other stakeholders to equip themselves aerospace specialization in order to effectively face the emerging challenges in this field of law, which may a potential to turn catastrophic in nature if proper and timely initiatives not taken. Last year, he was also invited by the Moragoda International Law Trust, Sri Lanka to deliver a series of lectures on international law and international space law to law faculty and students at the General Sir John Kotelawala Defence University, Colombo from September 1-10, 2016. Every year the Trust invites a distinguished European and American Professors from abroad to offer a series of lectures/seminars for a period of 10 days every year. This is the first time they have invited an Indian to conduct the above said lectures. In the past couple of years, he has also ventured in the field of land rights and land laws.
