MEGHALAYA & NE EDITION

About us

In a world today, which speaks of only conflicts, thanks to a brain tearing, brainstorming media, South Asia Views should be the new spokesman of not an endangered world, but that of cosmic fusion, a new bearer of the media and the world wide web. This integration of the world, upheld by small or big cultures, has only one thing to fall back upon- history and the past, a cosmology of tradition and contemporaneity. South Asia Views will articulate world views, seen from new and fresh perspectives, that of single and singular humanity. The ‘ other’, the ‘ them ‘ or even the ‘ us ‘ will commingle in the grand diversity of the world, aided by new technology of hope, to cement and foster growing world relationships. The opinions expressed in the articles will be solely that of the author. South Asia Views will in no way be responsible for them. However, to accommodate divergent viewpoints and in keeping with the spirit of democracy South Asian Views host such ideas for healthy debate and discussion. South Asia Views is a forum for exchange between South Asia and the rest of the world, seeking cross-cultural discussion and mutual exchange of ideas.
