[Clicking on the links will take you to the page that lists all the articles published under individual projects]The E-Internship usually runs for three months and is unpaid. However, the period can be extended. The E-Interns will work as Lead Researchers in the projects and are expected to write at least three publishable articles during the period of E-Internship, which will be published in Mantraya.org and assist in other projects depending on the candidate’s interest and skill set.
The schedule under E-Internship is flexible and provides an opportunity to work with Mantraya’s team of Experts and Advisers. We invite researchers and students to avail themselves of this opportunity. We strongly encourage those interested in primary and field research to contribute to this initiative.
To apply please mail a three-page CV, a passport-size high-resolution photograph, and a writing sample of 500 words indicating your preference for either of the Projects to mantrayaoffice@gmail.com and office@mantraya.org
Short-listed candidates will be contacted within a week.

Article /Brief/ Opinion Submissions: Style sheet and Guidelines
The style for both the ‘Briefs’/ ‘Articles’ and the ‘Opinions’ can both be analytical as well as descriptive. While ‘Articles’ and ‘Briefs’ need to be on the theme relating to Mantraya’s research focus, submission as ‘Opinions’ could pertain to topical issues and in a narrative style.
- Submissions should be in English (United Kingdom).
- All submissions must be original and should not have been published in any other (print or internet) platform.
- While references (footnotes/endnotes) are generally not required, sources for critical data and figures cited in the articles should be provided. This makes fact-checking and the process of making a decision on publishing a particular submission faster.
- All publications will be under the actual names of the authors.
- Authors should provide their mugshot and a brief bio along with the submission.
- The authors can expect a decision on publication status within three days of submission. The Mantraya editorial team would work with the authors on making required amends to the published piece.
- All submissions should be sent to mantrayaoffice@gmail.com and office@mantraya.org
