Magazine
KINAARA ONLINE
‘An online literary magazine
for the youth in South Asia
and the diaspora, Kinaara
will be published monthly
and intends to create a safe,
encouraging space for
experimentation in art form
as well as new opinions and
perspectives on social
issues from youth’
STARTED by a group of young college students in
Kolkata, Kinaara is the brainchild of Monidipa Mondal, a
student at Jadavpur University, also the editor of the
magazine, assisted by Rohit Dasgupta and Anomitra
Biswas. The online nature of the magazine, the group
believes, will help Kinaara reach out through the scattered
South Asian readership and develop dialogue
among its different sections. There are also thoughts of
bringing out print anthologies of the best contributions
received. An entirely self-funded project launched at
the beginning of July, the first issue of the magazine can
be read at www.kinaaramagazine.org
