What’s in a name, an armpit with another stinks the same.
 


 
 

I was born in Prayag (Allahabad) in 1978. I was schooled mostly in cities across Madhya Pradesh (Khandwa, Ujjain, Pachmarhi, Bhopal, Datia/Jhansi), barring one year excursions to Vadodara, Jaipur and Delhi. Fell in love with mathematics in class 5 and mechanics in class 11. Went to a college on the Ganga and and an upstate University. Even did a post-doctoral stint somewhere on an Island. Now am back at the same college from whence I began, still trying to do mechanics with a dash of mathematics.


The more things change, the more they remain the same.
