This book begins with a significant episode in Indian politics in August of 2019: The abrogation of Article 370. An issue that got confusing in no time with people jumping to conclusions and making baseless statements. Then came the JNU protests, caused by the administration deciding to increase the fees. WhatsApp University was right at service, polarising people as either ridiculing the protest, or coming out fully in support of the administration, dismissing all claims by the students. Then, the Hyderabad killings happened: A group of men allegedly gang-raped a woman near Hyderabad. The police, after first being reluctant to even take register a case, killed the alleged perpetrators, creating an uproar in the society, dividing the Netizens. And as the final massive blow for the year, the Legislature amended the Citizenship Act of India to add provisions for refugees coming from Pakistan, Afghanistan and Bangladesh—refugees who had faced religious prosecution in countries where they are religious minorities.
This book goes through each of these issues in depth, trying to inform the reader about them so that if they choose to take a side, they can do so with information, rather than being driven by emotion and political or social narratives alone.
