Exploring Gender and Ageism: Ms. Anushkaa Arora's Insightful Chapter in latest International Publication

Celebrating a Remarkable Milestone for Ms. Anushkaa Arora and ABA Law Office

We are thrilled to announce that Ms. Anushkaa Arora, Principal & Founder of ABA Law Office, has contributed a chapter to the prestigious international book Later Life, Sex and Intimacy in the Majority World, published by Bristol University Press.

Her insightful chapter, titled “Kinnars, Ageism, and Sexuality during the Covid-19 Pandemic,” delves into critical conversations surrounding gender and sexual identity in the context of India’s third-gender community—Kinnars. At today’s intimate launch event, Ms. Arora eloquently highlighted the relevance of the Four Puruṣārthas—Dharma (righteousness), Artha (prosperity), Kama (pleasure), and Moksha (liberation)—for all of humanity, transcending gender, including the often marginalized Kinnars.

This approach set the tone for the chapter, emphasizing the need to retain the essence of Indianness in a global discourse.

The event was graced by Mr. Ajay Bose, Director of the Dhruvbose Foundation, and a key contributor to the book, as well as Sh. Colonel Neeraj Arora, Deputy Secretary, Cabinet Secretariat of India, Ms. Arora’s father, making this a truly special occasion.

Congratulations to Ms. Anushkaa Arora and her research team, Ms. Navya Prathipathi, Sr. Research Associate, ABA Law Office, for this significant contribution to global scholarship!
