Nrisingha Prasad Bhaduri is an Indian writer and Indologist. He is a specialist in Indian epics, Vedas, and Puranas. In 2012, Bhaduri undertook the large-scale project of creating an encyclopedia of the major Indian epics of the Mahabharata and Ramayana. The project is freely available online. Due to the difficulty and complexity of the task, it took Bhaduri a decade to conceptualize the project. During the compendium’s creation, several Indian journalists stated that the encyclopaedia was poised to challenge many long-held beliefs about the epics.
