About Us

The Social Lens is the official academic and intellectual platform of the Department of Sociology at Mahatma Gandhi Central University, Motihari, Bihar. Run by the students and academic community of the Department of Sociology, this platform embodies collective inquiry, dialogue, and critical engagement with society.

The Social Lens seeks to examine the world through a reflective, analytical, and ethically grounded perspective. It is a space where young scholars, researchers, and academicians come together to interpret social realities, question power structures, and generate transformative ideas.
