Education

He attended Scindia School, Gwalior and University of Cambridge. Clare Hall, a Cambridge college, elected him a life-member in 1991.[6] He was also a fellow of Queen Elizabeth House, University of Oxford.[7] Yadav holds a doctorate in international politics.[8]

Writings

The ideas developed in The Invasion of Delhi have been the subject of critical press comment.[9] The author argues that the people of the Delhi-Yamuna basin constitute the indigenous people of the union territory of Delhi and their systematic exclusion from the city is fundamentally unfair. Migration from far away, it is held, is responsible for environmental degradation in the entire middle Yamuna basin. Yadav's book was given a five-star relevance rating by the Library of Congress, Washington DC, USA.[10] It has been the subject of extensive international reporting. A report alluding to the work was first printed in The Christian Science Monitor.[11] It travelled round the world and was re-printed in Yahoo! News India,[12] Yahoo News Canada,[13] Gulf News,[14] Minnesota Post (USA),[15] Topix news,[16] Immigration Concern (UK)[17] and LexisNexis.[18] An international environment related database, noting the relevance of the book to contemporary ecological issues, carries a biographical entry of the author of The Invasion of Delhi.[19] The Environmental Crisis of Delhi is Yadav's latest work. In this study the author categorizes contemporary Delhi as an imperial city, similar to its Sultanate, Mogul and British predecessors when ethnic oligarchies with no local roots held sway. The singlular objective of today's ruling oligarchies is the appropriation of the land of the middle Yamuna and its allocation to their kin from beyond the Delhi basin. This predatory design, argues Yadav, underlies the ecological threat confronting India's capital city.The Environmental Crisis of Delhi too has been given a five star rating by the Library of Congress, Washington.[20]The Indian edition of the Wall Street Journal, one of the leading newspapers in the world, has also done an extensive report on the environment book.[21]

Yadav’s third work, Portraits of India, is a collection of poems. Extracts from this work received praise from Khushwant Singh, India’s premier writer.[22][23] Writing in one of his regular weekly columns, Singh remarked that the couplet of one of the poems "sycophancy is a practice in which, modern-day India is very rich" was an accurate summation of the mental state of Indians and “deserved to quoted”.[24]

As a researcher Yadav was associated with the Institute of Defence Studies and Analyses, New Delhi (1987–89) and Queen Elizabeth House, University of Oxford (1991–92). He wrote largely on South Asia, especially Afghanistan.,[25] where he has travelled in difficult and dangerous conditions of war. One of his papers on Afghanistan continues to be cited two decades after it was first written.[26][27][28][29][30] He contributed also to two major Indian journals, The Illustrated Weekly of India[31] and The Hindu.[32] Additionally he wrote on the Indian Rebellion of 1857[33] and this work was the subject of a lecture he delivered at University of Oxford’s South Asian Studies Centre at St Antony’s College.[34] Yadav has also made other seminar presentations at University of Oxford. One of these was on the anti-Mandal riots of the 1990s[35] and another on inter-ethnic relations and hierarchies in Delhi.[36] The former has been praised and extensively quoted by former Harvard professor, senator and diplomat Daniel Patrick Moynihan;[37][38] the other has been translated into German and published by the European Migration Centre.[39]
