About

Cafe Dissensus Everyday, the daily update of Cafe Dissensus Magazine, was born in New York City (USA) and is now based in India.

Our ISSN No.: ISSN 2373-177X.

We are genuinely committed to the idea of alternative media. Here each piece will be considered and published only on its own merit and not on some other considerations.
