About this title
In the years following the 2002 communal riots, the Indian state of Gujarat was rocked by a series of 'encounters': extrajudicial killings conducted by the police staged as acts of self-defence against escaping detainees. Shubhradeep Chakravorty’s cogent, straight-talking Encountered on Saffron Agenda? unearths the truth behind four notorious encounters that took place in Ahmedabad, Gujarat, between 2002 and 2005.
