The Incarcerations by Alpa Shah

A Memoir of Survival and Resistance in India's Red Corridor

**The Incarcerations** explores the unraveling of Indian democracy through the lens of the Bhima Koregaon case. This gripping narrative follows the story of 16 individuals, including scholars, lawyers, and artists, who were imprisoned without trial, accused of being Maoist terrorists. Despite the lack of credible evidence, they were charged with inciting violence at a 2018 event they did not attend and plotting against the Indian prime minister. Alpa Shah delves into the lives of these individuals, highlighting their work with India's marginalized communities and uncovering shocking revelations of cyber warfare used against them. The book paints a vivid picture of the challenges faced by India's minorities and the broader implications for democracy in the country.
