She went to the Institute of Rural Management, Anand, for further studies and worked in the field of development.

About the book: The book, published by Westland in 2021, traces the evolution of public policy in mental healthcare since the early 20th century. Some of the issues covered include: What prompted the initial reforms of mental hospitals? Which new ideas then took root? Who were the people that pushed for change? How did political events affect the pace of progress? When did international opinion begin to matter? What did all of this mean for the treatment and care of the mentally ill? And why do four out of five mentally ill persons go untreated even today? The book draws upon archival records, official reports, parliamentary debates, court proceedings, academic journals, and news articles.
