After the launch of our non-profit scholarly venture with the Rupkatha Journal, we now consider it a sacred duty to respond to the call of times by organizing this conference to interact and understand our present situation and the emerging future in a fuller and critical manner. The objective is to create a dialogue and affect the social and cultural discourse at a crucial phase of our history.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In opposition to the closed-door format of traditional conference halls <em>Rupkatha<\/em> shall make the conference Open Access by streaming all presentations and discussions Live. Curation and content archiving shall be done by <em>Rupkatha<\/em> in accordance with international publication standards<\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span style=\"font-size: 14pt; color: #0c5791;\"><strong>Mission of the Conference<\/strong><\/span><\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">RIOC is being floated as a virtual platform for the latest innovative and critical research in Humanities. If the lack of advanced non-Anglophone discourses in linguistic, philosophical, phenomenological and computational research is regretted Rupkatha none the less resolves to promote all kind of experimental analyses and novel thinking. The recent pandemic will definitely affect our discourse more deeply than ever. We are not sure in what ways the pandemic will shape our future with its collateral damages. There is little for celebration but much for introspection. This conference can offer a halting point for such reflections. Much responsibility rests on young researchers. For several decades, the academic atmosphere in the Humanities has been dominated by the thick smog of western critical theories which fail to address the local issues and local cultural experience. This is why <em>Rupkatha<\/em> emphasizes on translation studies directed towards, and not out of, the Anglocentric direction. <em>Rupkatha<\/em> encourages the vernaculars, language consciousness and identity against the linguistic invasion of the internet and cultural imperialism. Whereas other disciplines have progressed through transparency and scientific temperament, the Humanities in many countries have been stuck in quagmires and with stagnant allegiances to pre-existing cultural tomes.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">We shall not discourage conventional politics and polemical discourse in criticism. But we should be aware that the neoliberal economy demands uniformity and conformation. Globalization itself, as the instance of Indian global influence demonstrates, can provide us with tools to resist modeling and encourage or preserve difference.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In the context of the pandemic and given the uncertainty of the situation we decided to keep the conference open for a wide range of areas. Submissions can be made on any topic listed below but are not restricted to the areas mentioned.<\/p>\n<h4 style=\"text-align: left;\"><span style=\"font-size: 12pt; color: #0c5791;\"><strong>Conference Archive<\/strong><\/span><\/h4>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Rupkatha also intends to diversify into e-publishing and hard format publishing under its banner for effective and wider dissemination of research and reference.<\/p>\n<h4><span style=\"font-size: 12pt;
