Description

A report from the epicenter of the Naxalite war In its war against the Maoists, it is the Indian state that usually gets to tell its side of story.

But official explanations are not meant to convey truth.

Most often they attempt to cover up the reality and obscure it.

The claim that only one warring side has the right to propagate its views whereas the other does not because they are projected as enemy is questionable when we know there are two sides to any conflict and where both sides comprise our own people. In this situation of internal war, not satisfied with the knowledge offered by books and documents, Gautam Navlakha went into the heart of Bastar to get to know the Maoists first hand.

This book is an account of the fortnight he spent in the guerilla zone where the Maoists run their people s government, the Jantana Sarkar.

His enquiry unflinching and his perspective critical but partisan, Navlakha succeeds in the difficult task of making the demonized human, laying bare the heartland of rebellion.
