About the Founder
In 2019, 19-year-old Anirudh Phadke observed that India lacked a dedicated foreign affairs media platform, and the research papers published by Indian think tanks were often too technical for the general public to understand. Combining these observations, he conceived the idea that became known as ‘The Viyug.’
In late 2024, he launched the ‘Phadke Journals’ to promote Indian-centric academic research and bridge the gap between academic research and industry applications.
Anirudh Phadke holds a Master’s degree in Strategic Studies along with a Certificate in Terrorism Studies at S. Rajaratnam School of International Studies (RSIS) at Nanyang Technological University (NTU). He is currently serving as a Member of the Board of Studies (BoS) for the Department of Defence & Strategic Studies at Guru Nanak College (Autonomous). He previously worked for the International Criminal Police Organization (INTERPOL).
