Dear Reader,
This fortnight, we have some regular columns and some new. In our conversations we have two Professors Dr Neelima Shukla Bhatt and Dr Hope Fitz. October 2nd was Mahatma's b'day. Dr. Hope Fitz suggests that Gandhi's Ahimsa idea is needed more today than ever before. Dr Bhatt talks about the increasing need of South Asian Studies in Universities.We also have a video clip on Pranab Mukherjee talk at Harvard University recently. Click here to listen to his talk on India's Security Initiative.
According to relaible sources, the Diwali petition was a hoax. So we have removed the link.
Happy Columbus Day ! Revel in the colors of the fall !
