Come here for my latest thoughts and reflections on India and the rest of South Asia

Should David Cameron apologise for Britain's colonial past in India, particularly the bloodiest moments like the Amritsar massacre?
His chief diplomat here was confronted with the issue after giving a speech in Delhi a couple of months ago, when an elderly man jailed by the British demanded to know when the UK was going to say sorry.

Neat stacks of medical text books, a sharply-designed carrier bag from a clothes store, an English novel and pairs of smart shoes in the draughty bedroom of the 23-year-old Delhi gang rape victim, tell the story of a woman determined to make the leap to a middle class lifestyle for her and her family.

A warm welcome to my new page on the BBC News website, with my thoughts and reflections on events in the headlines - and sometimes not - across India and the rest of South Asia.
I'm based in Delhi, so working out where the world's largest democracy is going takes up most of my time. I'm also keeping an eye on Pakistan, Bangladesh, Nepal, Sri Lanka, Bhutan and the Maldives - and I make frequent trips to Afghanistan where I used to be based, watching the run-up to Nato's pull-out in 2014.

His BBC career started as a producer at the World Service, when only a select few had email and the word blog had yet to be invented.
Andrew's life in journalism began on his student newspaper while doing a geography degree at the University of London.
