ABOUT US

Aakhyan, the Creative Writing Society of Atma Ram Sanatan Dharma College, is a vibrant literary collective dedicated to fostering creativity, critical thinking, and artistic expression through the written word. Guided by its motto, “Scripta Manent”, meaning, The Written Word Never Dies, the society celebrates multilingual expression and encourages students to explore diverse literary forms, including poetry, prose, fiction, non-fiction, and experimental writing. By providing an inclusive and intellectually stimulating environment, Aakhyan nurtures emerging writers and promotes meaningful engagement with literature across languages and traditions.

The society regularly organizes writing workshops, literary discussions, seminars, competitions, and interactive sessions that encourage students to refine their craft and engage with contemporary literary and social themes. Notable initiatives include Pankhuri Series, Sepideh: The Quarterly Digest, and many more. Through inter-college competitions and thematic writing events, Aakhyan encourages participants to engage with issues of inclusivity, identity, leadership, and social change while developing their creative and analytical abilities.

Aakhyan also promotes intellectual exchange through interactions with distinguished scholars, writers, and thinkers. A significant highlight has been its seminar series featuring accomplished speakers such as Prof. K. Sridhar, Prof. Gitanjali Chawla, Ms. Bhaswati Ghosh among many others, whose interdisciplinary perspectives inspired students to explore the intersections of literature, philosophy, and creativity. Through its diverse initiatives and commitment to literary excellence, Aakhyan continues to cultivate a dynamic community of writers, readers, and thinkers, ensuring that the written word remains a powerful medium of expression and reflection.
