About
Indica Times is an independent publication for readers, researchers, and the incorrigibly curious.
It draws inspiration from the literature, traditions, and material culture of the Indian subcontinent and surrounding areas. Stories therefore range from vedic texts to the epics, classical literature, and later works. Stories and features cite their sources.
Indica Times is written by Anindita Basu.
