About the Magazine
Founded in 2022 | India
The Hooghly Review is a digital non-profit and free-access magazine of literature, culture & arts with the aim to shine a light on emerging and underrated writers, storytellers, poets, artists, and other creatives across the globe. Named and conceptualised by Tejaswinee Roychowdhury in July 2022, she invited fellow writer-poet and friend, Ankit Raj Ojha, onboard in October 2022. The two have since been editing the magazine, expanding and developing it, and building its foundations to humbly serve the literary community in the years to come.
