Release of ASM Journal Volume 92

We are happy to share with you that on 26 th  November 2024, on the occasion of the 220 th Foundation Day of the Asiatic, the Society has released Volume 92 of the ASM Journal. This is the latest volume of the journal released by the Society. The editors of the journal are Professor Madhu Kelkar and Professor Usha R Vijailakshmi. It has come to the Society's notice that some unscrupulous elements are collecting money for publishing papers in the Society's Journal and are offering bogus certificates. Some of the candidates had mailed these certificates to the Society. These certificates carry the names of the editors of previous volumes. The Asiatic Society does not collect money for publishing research papers in its journal, nor does it guarantee publication, and most importantly it does not issue any certificate. Authors must verify with the Society before submitting any papers, and papers will be published only after rigorous peer review and editing. The Society does not take responsibility for any payments made to third parties claiming to represent the Society, or for their papers appearing in a cloned/spam journal. Ours is a print-only journal. We do not publish the journal online.

THE ASIATIC SOCIETY OF MUMBAI
The Literary Club of the Asiatic Society of Mumbai
invites you to a presentation on the book 'Twin Tales from Kutcch'
on Wednesday 8th October, 2025, at 5.00 p.m.

The Literary Club of the Asiatic Society of Mumbai cordially invites you to a presentation on the book Twin Tales from Kutcch at the Durbar Hall of the Asiatic Society of Mumbai, at 5.00 p.m. on Wednesday 8th October, 2025.
Twin Tales from Kutcch is a family saga with a strong ethnic flavour set in colonial India - a poignant story of two courageous women orphaned at a tender age. Had they not been separated by a large age gap, they may well have been twins, so uncanny are the parallels in their young lives. The new century dawns and sweeping changes take place in their personal lives as well as on the national stage. Will their paths cross again? Through a compelling and immersive narrative, the book offers a fine blend of nostalgia, historical detail, ethnic traditions and family lore, at the same time touching on issues like the status of women, communal co-existence and the plurality of religious traditions and cultures.

Saeed Ibrahim was educated at the St. Mary’s High School and St. Xavier’s College in Mumbai, and later, at the Sorbonne in Paris. He is the author of two books - “Twin Tales from Kutcch,” and a short story collection entitled “The Missing Tile and Other Stories.” His short stories have appeared in various magazines including The Blue Lotus Magazine, Borderless Journal, The Hooghly Review, and Lothlorien Poetry Journal to name a few. In addition, he has been writing for newspapers and travel publications as well as publishing book reviews

Please join us for tea at 4.30 p.m.

- Prof. Mangala Sirdeshpande, Hon. Secretary Asiatic Society of Mumbai
- Meenal Kshirsagar, Vice President of the Society & Chairperson-ASM LitClub
