New Address

Dear All,

I hope all of you are missing the lack of ‘updation’ (if such an abstract exists) on this blog. College commitments keep me occupied.

But at the same time, I am planning to shift the blog to a different host with hopefully a swankier name than rohitnair.wordpress.com..

The new address will soon be updated.

Till then keep patience and enjoy the older posts
