IndiaWorld launched in a new "Avataar"
Hamburg (23.03.2005): Welcome to the new version of IndiaWorld on the net. In its new form the site has moved to a professional web-hosting and is no more hosted on a free-of-charge server that caused inconvenience for visitors by its pop-ups and advertisements.
Further the site is being extensively updated in its offer on information. Some pages are still under construction and are expected to go online soon. The site will be available in English and German languages. A limited edition in Hindi is also in planning.
It is hoped that the site will thus increase its' utility even more and would contribute to a better understanding of India and Germany in particluar and South Asia in general. If you wish to contribute in this effort by ways of writing articles, providing news or in any other way, you are most welcome.
With best wishes, Rajnish Tiwari, Hamburg, 23.03.2005
