He is not new to debian, he was already contributing to Debian Installer Malayalam translations. I'm happy to see him maintain packages too. Anish is already active in many Free Software communities already - Swathnthra Malayalam Computing and Indian Libre Users Group Trivandrum to name a few. He runs a company which offers web hosting completely on Free Software.
