Welcome to Gargi’s World!

In case you’re wondering, Gargi is an unusual name even in India, where I come from. Not many people know that it’s the name of a celebrated woman scholar from the Great Hindu epic, the Mahabharata.

And yes, after a glance through these pages, you’ll be wondering, like many others before you – ‘What, in God’s name, were her parents thinking?’

Well, I don’t know, but they were young and reckless, so let’s just forgive them for this faux pas.

What you’ll find on this site is a collection of my articles that have had the privilege of being published in various magazines or newspapers.
