This is the second issue of our Shankha International on the Web. We are still going through the growing pains as is evidenced by our delayed appearance. Although our desired appearance was scheduled along with our celebration of Durga Puja, for one or another inexcusable reason, we faltered to present this issue on time. We sincerely apologize for this delay.

We would like to take this opportunity to express our gratitude to those who have visited our site and read our magazine. We particularly appreciate those who took time to let us know their opinion about the magazine.

Our magazine has not fully matured yet. Many departments that we hope to add in the near future are still in their formative stages. Thus, we request all authors to contribute their articles to the editor (Sunil Ghose) or to our Internet Architect (Anupam Bagchi) and help us grow.

We have made a major addition in this issue - we have added a Children's section. Another attractive feature is the article by Calcutta's famous author Sri Narayan Sanyal. We hope you will enjoy our magazine. Thank you.
