Official launch of 'Until my freedom has come: The new intifada in Kashmir'. India Habitat Centre, New Delhi. May 25, 2011. Photo: Subir Ghosh
The much-awaited launch of Until My Freedom Has Come - The New Intifada in Kashmir happened. The editor of the compilation, Sanjay Kak, had been warned by the publisher about people walking out of book launches quite early in the evening. That didn't happen on May 25, 2011. The Gulmohar hall at India Habitat Centre remained choc a bloc till the end. And that too with the book being already available in stores. That's what made the evening special.
The recording I have here has been split into two files. For the better part, it is audible and discernible enough.
Part I
Part II
PS: This report has been slugged under 'People'. That's because I believe the Kashmir "issue" is about people.
