About Us
At Shabd India, we are dedicated to preserving, translating, and amplifying the diverse voices of Indian literature through the power of digital humanities. Our mission is to ensure that lesser-known, marginalized, and underrepresented stories, particularly short stories, are not lost to time, but instead thrive in the digital age, accessible to readers across languages and cultures.
Our Vision
We envision a world where the richness of India’s linguistic and cultural heritage is celebrated and accessible to everyone. By bringing stories written in Indian languages to a global audience, we aim to bridge linguistic divides, preserve regional narratives, and create a platform where the past, present, and future of Indian literature converge.
Get Involved
We believe in the power of community. Whether you are a translator, a scholar, a literary enthusiast, or simply someone who loves stories, there’s a place for you at Shabd India. Join us in preserving and promoting the voices that deserve to be heard.

Heengwala
(The Asafoetida Seller)
By Subhadra Kumari Chauhan
(English Translation by S Anas Ahmad)
A man named Khan, who was about thirty-five years old, stopped in the courtyard. His familiar voice, as always, was heard, “Amma,” will you buy some heeng?” He opened the cask tied to his back, set it down, and settled onto the platform beneath the Maulsiri tree. A boy of nine or ten emerged from the inner veranda and said, “We don’t need anything right now, go away!”
