Start of the foundation
The foundation started with the name Vidyasar Trust (1990) and for several years until I began using the prototype name, Indus Valley Conservatory, for the proposed institution. This was until I came to terms with the ownership politics, as if, being played over the legacy of Indus Valley civilization by both Indian and Pakistani experts.
As my original intent was to look at the evolution of thought and expression from a time which none could lay any ownership whatsoever, I decided to go with the name Anad, which means “beyond expression” and/or “with no beginning”.
