The End of Karma a book by Ex-Delhi & Dakar bureau chief of The New York Times and a quintessential bongo gal Somini Sengupta tells the stories of unprecedented youth surge through the lens of young Indians, hungry and hopeful and keen to write their own destinies. A daughter of the slums who wants to protect other daughters of the slums, a peasant woman who escapes the barren hinterland, a couple who follow their hearts over the dictates of caste - driven by aspiration—and thwarted at every step by state and society—India's young are making new demands on India’s democracy.
Indians are "born with one destiny but they're trying to write another." My interview w/ the NYT's @SominiSengupta: https://t.co/UhRpC3Wa6U— Christiane Amanpour (@camanpour) March 29, 2016
