ଆମ ହାତେ ଆମ କୋଡ୍ ଲେଖିବା: by Subhashish Panigrahi — published Sep 17, 2016 — filed under: CIS-A2K, Odia Wikipedia, Access to Knowledge
I authored a column on writing our code in our own hands for the editorial of Odia-language daily the "Samaja". The piece is about the philosophy of software freedom and how free and open source software is making a significant difference in our lives. I have also shared a little bit about how anyone can celebrate the Software Freedom Day today by contributing to and sharing about to FOSS.

ଓଡ଼ିଆ ଉଇକିପାଠାଗାରର ଆବଶ୍ୟକତା (Need for an Odia-language Wikisource): by Subhashish Panigrahi — published Oct 27, 2015 — last modified Dec 15, 2015 08:21 AM — filed under: CIS-A2K, Odia Wikisource, Access to Knowledge
This post is about the Odia library movement and the conventional archival, touch-bases on the problems with dissemination of knowledge with more public domain books that are entering into the "rare and perishing" category, a comparative study of the conventional and new medium--like Wikisource--for book archival. It sheds light on how Wikisource functions as a collaborative platform in engaging with readers for digitizing books that are yet to be digitized.

India's Supreme Court Axes Online Censorship Law, But Challenges Remain: by Subhashish Panigrahi — published Mar 27, 2015 — last modified Mar 27, 2015 02:38 AM — filed under: IT Act, Censorship, Freedom of Speech and Expression, Internet Governance, Chilling Effect

In response to a public interest litigation filed by Indian law student Shreya Singhal, the court made this landmark judgement calling the section “vague”, “broad” and “unconstitutional”. Since Tuesday's announcement, the news has trended nationally on Twitter, with more than 50,000 tweets bearing the hashtags #Sec66A and #66A.
