I was on a hiatus for a while, and have only recently resumed updating this web site. I'm currently working on putting up all of Akhilesh's writing from 2007.

To the left are the newspaper articles from 2007. In addition, in January 2007 Akhilesh wrote the introduction and epilogue to the book Trial and Execution of Mungul Pandy by Leela Gajadhar Sarup, published by Neogy in India.
