South Asia
Panchayat
is a discussion forum that aims to critically assess and
debate pressing issues in contemporary South Asia.
The site provides a portal to other news sites in South
Asia
The
South Asian aims to present news of people and events
in South Asia, and news in the US that we feel is relevant
to our communities. It also aims to provide a platform for
discussion and analysis of events happening in South Asia.
Lines
is an online magazine that engages with the political spaces
of Sri Lanka. We seek to provide a forum that inspires and
challenges us to critically scrutinize the terms of received
debates, and enable alternative political imaginaries.
While Sri Lanka is the principle reference for the conversations
engaged with in lines, it is not the sole concern. We actively
seek articles that engage with the kind of issues enumerated
above in addressing different territorial entities, from
the occupied territories of Palestine to the state of Gujarat
in India.
