Anand Pagare is a media activist working in one of the most sensitive areas in the country, Malegaon.

A boiling pot of communal strife, the town is in the constant grip of violence and religious tensions, but while these stories are picked up by the mainstream press, there are still atrocities that happen under the radar. Anand, born into a migrant Dalit family, chronicles the oppression within the rigid caste system, the denial of basic rights to his community, the toll that migration has on them and the fallout of communal violence on his community.
