This is the story of Bhupendra Vira, a dedicated Dalit activist and RTI crusader who was murdered in 2016 for daring to expose illegal land grabs and corruption in Mumbai’s Kalina neighbourhood.

  • The challenges and intimidation he faced from those in power
  • The investigation into his murder and the prime suspects
