india-scifi

According to some critics like Dr.Shivgopaln Mishra(2000) Aascharya Vrittant written by Amika datt Vyas should be credited as first sf written in Hindi.I tend to agree with the claim.The novellette was publishe ina serial form during 1884-1888 in PEEYUSH PRAVAH aliterary magzine published from Madhya pradesh ,India.This is influeced by Jules Verne'A journey to the centre of the earth'.
