Author
Dr. Kamlesh Bajaj pioneered cyber security and data privacy in the government and industry for over two decades, both as the Founder Director, CERT-In, and Founder CEO, Data Security Council of India. His interest in ancient Indian history and Vedic heritage, and a critical reading of Nehru’s Discovery of India — a colonial narrative through the western lens, resulted in his book Discovering India through the Bharatiya Lens: Breaking the Colonial and Marxist Myth.
