Website design, layout and graphics by Gautam Patel. Content and research by Kushal Mor and Kumar Sumit Rai.

Gautam Patel is on the Advisory Board of the BEAG. He is hopelessly addicted to (among other things) books, music, software, technology, useless widgets, and tinkering around with website design. Sometimes he also practices law.

Kushal Mor is a dude. He has an enormous capacity for hard work, is infinitely adaptable to diverse situations and people, can touch his toes, and is thoroughly and delightfully confused about his future, which is rapidly becoming his past. He does, however, want to improve the world, which is a Good Thing. Among other things, he wants one day to own a private jet. In the meantime, he walks.

Kumar Sumit Rai is your quiet, bespectacled, totally focussed kind of bloke. He is determined to be a lawyer, and equally determined to spend part of his professional time taking up environmental legal issues.
