Juddho - Aparadhi by Moumita Ghosh [Hardcover]

When India attained Independence on August 15th, 1947, trampled under the merriment were cries of torturous pain and impending death that was meted out to certain individuals. These very people had fought for the Independence of the country and yet were branded as ‘war criminals’ by India. Who were they ? They were members of Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose’s Azad Hind Fouj a.k.a Indian National Army (I.N.A). While other freedom fighters received badges of honor for their martyrdom, INA soldiers spent their nights in prison after Independence waiting to be fired at. What was the conspiracy that removed their existence from our soil forever? Ritwik and Banhi are two youngsters who embark on a mission to uncover this seemingly large conspiracy. Ritwik’s grandmother was a fellow INA member and he is determined for their deserved recognition. Moumita Ghosh, through a gripping storyline, brings to light the unflinching fight of the INA, their eventual outcome and a large national conspiracy theory through the eyes of present-day youth in Juddho Aparadhi.
