Writing is an art. English is a language, rather a class affect in India, but writing clearly, is about thinking clearly. Writing is the best pedagogical tool for thinking through ideas, cutting the clutter of noise.
It is sad writing is learnt by default rather than by design. Writing is not about scribbling your class 10/12 essay from the guide book. Attention spans might be plummeting, however text is not dead, rather sky rocketing as we are reading the most.
We need Amish as well as Spivak. Hoping that formal writing education picks up in India.

Intersectionalities of Migration and Climate Change, Amitav Ghosh has written The Great Derangement and The Gun Island, which are on the zeitgeist of our times. Time we look the long view seriously.

My first published poem ever in Banglar Kantha Eid 2020 edition. I had written last for the paper in May 2017.

Many thanks to Mohsin Da for his mentoring through the years. I am an adviser to the migrant workers collective in Singapore where i remotely support operations.
