Sarai is a programme of the Centre for the Study of Developing Societies, Delhi (CSDS), founded by Ravi Vasudevan & Ravi Sundaram from CSDS, and Jeebesh Bagchi, Monica Narula & Shuddhabrata Sengupta. The Sarai collective interprets the sense of the word "sarai" to mean a very public space, where different intellectual, creative and activist energies can intersect to give rise to an imaginative reconstitution of urban public culture, new/old media practice, research and critical cultural intervention.
