Purchase options and add-ons

Jaswant Singh Khalra was not born a revolutionary—but he became one out of moral necessity. In the turbulent era of Punjab's insurgency and counterinsurgency during the 1980s and 1990s, he uncovered one of the darkest chapters in India's human rights history: the secret abductions, killings, and illegal cremations of thousands of innocent Sikhs. When others turned away in fear, Khalra stepped forward with unwavering resolve.

This book traces Khalra’s journey from a quiet civil servant to an internationally recognized voice for the voiceless. With a commitment rooted in Sikh principles of justice and compassion, he meticulously gathered evidence that shocked the nation and the world—until he himself was disappeared, becoming one of the very victims he was fighting for.

Drawing from historical documents, legal records, personal interviews, and news archives, Jaswant Singh Khalra: The Unquiet Conscience and the Fight for Truth in Punjab exposes the machinery of state-sponsored repression, and the courage it takes to challenge it. The book also examines the broader socio-political context—Operation Blue Star, the anti-Sikh pogroms of 1984, and the systematic breakdown of democratic accountability in Punjab.

More than a biography, this is a profound reflection on the cost of truth, the burden of memory, and the resilience of justice. Khalra’s legacy continues to inspire activists, scholars, and everyday citizens to ask uncomfortable questions, and to never remain silent in the face of injustice. StorytellerUK2025
