Welcome to GRM 2024

The Graduate Research Meet is an annual research conference conducted by the Department of Humanities and Social Sciences. It provides a platform for various humanities and social sciences researchers to interact and share their research, initiating a conversation to open up new horizons. Through the 10th edition of GRM, we aim to explore new ideas and methodologies revolving around the theme of 'Power, Movement, and Memory'.

Since its inception in 2013, GRM has been conducted successfully with the help of contributions from premier academic and non-academic organisations of the country like the Indian Council for Social Sciences Research, North Eastern Council, Indian Oil Corporation Limited, Canara Bank, among others.
