Review: Under Cover; My Journey into the Darkness of Hindutva by Ashish Khetan -Vipul Mudgal

-Hindustan Times

Ashish Khetan uncovered the shadowy world of messy local politics, of bigots and slumlords, in Gujarat and beyond. The stories which were assembled through daring undercover operations, show that it takes decades of hard work to infuse hostility and create an ecosystem of fear

From journalism to judiciary and from police to Parliament, do you see a trend of partisanship getting rewarded and excellence punished? In Under Cover; My Journey into the Darkness of Hindutva, AshishKhetan walks you through such a dystopia in the making.

The judge, the prosecutor, and the defence lawyer can sometimes gang up to punish the victim or sabotage the trial. It is equally likely that the cops staging a daylight murder are rewarded handsomely and an honest investigator gets reprimanded or removed.
