Aishwarya joined NLSIU in 2022 as an Academic Fellow, and since April 2023, has been working as a Research Associate for the Pluralist Agreement and Constitutional Transformation (PACT) project. Her broad interests include human rights law, anti-discrimination, refugee law, and constitutional law. Her published work includes a paper on the applicability of the principle of non-refoulement in India as a non-signatory to the Refugee Convention.
In her research for the PACT project, she has looked into the founding of the Indian Constitution, with reference to the Constituent Assembly Debates. She has also been involved with organising various events that aim at constitutional awareness.
