Nayi Dhara reigned in the era of Harivansh Rai Bachchan and Nirala. It’s now creating a new niche for Hindi literature online, as well as through writers’ residencies and events.
Maitreyi chooses the knowledge that leads to immortality over her husband’s offer of money. Her philosophical ambition reveals the roots of women-led institutions in Buddhism and Jainism.
The concern is not that 2025’s rally was irrational, but that it may be difficult to repeat. Outlooks remain anchored to AI investment and growth without reigniting inflation.

Many of you might think I got something so wrong in National Interest pieces written this year. I might disagree! But some deserve a Mea Culpa. I’d deal with the most recent this week.
It is the curse upon Hindus that they will abuse their own motherland, culture, religion and traditions and think that it is being “progressive”.
One unnoticed sample is distortion of the name Ashok as Ashoka. Was the king called अशोक or अशोका? Does any single book of ancient history, even of the fanatical communist variety, write his name as Ashoka ? Over centuries, lakhs and crores of families have named their sons after the name of the illustrious emperor, but was or is any single of them called Ashoka? No , every one named so is अशोक not अशोका. How can they do it? The very pronunciation अशोका sounds ugly and foolish.And this egregious distortion in the very name of the university itself !!! It says a lot.
Pramatha Raj Sinha has done the nation a great service by establishing the Indian School of Business (ISB). The ISB will stand as his legacy in the years to come.
However, the immense goodwill and respect he has enjoyed as the founder of ISB is depleting fast. Why? Because of his patronage of all kinds of anti-India and anti-Hindu elements at Ashoka University. Professors like Aparna Viadik openly teach anti-Hindu hatred filled courses and indoctrinate young minds to hate their own culture, religion and heritage. Foreigners like Christophe Jaffrelot who have made a career out of spewing bile against Hindus and denigrating Hinduism are provided safe shelter. The recent unsavoury episode of Ali Khan Mahmudabad did not exactly bring glory to the university.
Most of the faculty are extreme Left wing and openly pursue an anti-Hindu and anti-India agenda in their teaching and research activities. Some like Mahmudabad are Islamists.
Mr. Sinha must take care not to ruin his reputation by providing shelter to such people at his university.
