— Appears in: Australia and India : Interconnections : Identity, Representation, Belonging 2006; (p. 168-181)

Keya Majumdar says: 'My point of interest in this article would be to see how between the cracks of the diasporic narratives appear not the text of the Diaspora alone, but the inherent meaning of humanity.
