Release of ASM Journal Volume 91

We are happy to share with you that on 25^th November 2023, on the occasion of the Foundation Day of the Asiatic, the Society has released Volume 91 of the ASM Journal. It has come to the Society's notice that some unscrupulous elements are collecting money for publishing papers in the Society's Journal and offering bogus certificates. The Asiatic Society does not collect money for publishing in its journal, nor does it guarantee publication, and neither does it 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.

Dr. Usha Thakkar will narrate the compelling story of passion and daring of how a 22 year old student of Wilson College, Usha Mehta, with the help of her colleagues, started an underground radio station in August 1942 to broadcast reliable news and to disseminate information about the struggle against the coercive rule of the British Government.
The clandestine Congress Radio continued to broadcast news and messages from prominent leaders to the masses, fighting the disinformation for almost three months till the arrest of its members in November of the same year.
The book “Congress Radio: Usha Mehta and the Underground Radio Station of 1942” by Dr. Usha Thakkar was published in August 2021 by Penguin.
