Mr Yadav also holds an MBBS degree from the All Indian Institute of Medical Sciences in Delhi.
The description on his personal website says it’s a “young bureaucrat’s perspective on global and national events.” It contains photos and reports about his work and that of the government in Arunachal Pradesh.
The last post dated April 12 is titled “Kengkhu: A Basti Model for Drug Deaddiction.”
“At the current ongoing death camp, 17 remaining youth have been treated with opium addiction and will soon be released to lead normal lives. They will work in cluster farming using the latest agricultural technologies… Amid all the gloom of COVID-19 and countless failed initiatives to combat the drug threat, Kengkhu Basti Model is a ray of hope to turn Arunachal into a drug-addicted society,” Yadav writes in his blog.
