About

Here’s what we DO: 1. We look at South Asia only — sue us but that’s the way we are. Our playing field: India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Nepal, Afghanistan, Bhutan, Tibet, The Maldives, Bangladesh and Burma (we like it better than Myanmar).

2. We post daily and we post as often as we can.

3. We post stuff that we find fun. We’re guided solely by our personal tastes.

4. We believe in ethical blogging (ooh that sounds pompous, but we believe it with our hands on our hearts): all stories link to the original source. All tips and suggestions are gratefully acknowledged.

5. We welcome comments, ideas, story suggestions and criticism (though we prefer praise) and will look for your mail at: asianwindowteam@gmail.com.

Now, here’s what we DON’T do: We don’t post original content. We’re a filter blog.

This is who we are:

Shekhar Bhatia has launched and edited more newspapers than he cares to remember. His last assignment was with the Hindustan Times as its editor.

Namita Bhandare quit full-time journalism to be a full-time mom. She writes a fortnightly column on social trends for Mint (which, of course, she uploads on the site) and spends way too much time on the Net.
