Talk by Shri Rajeev Bhattacharyya on Travelling with the Insurgents

Venue: Room no. 105, IDSA

Shri Bhattacharyya’s talk will be based on a 4 months assignment he undertook deep inside the jungles of Myanmar. During his trek though the inhospitable terrain, he met and interviewed a number of Northeast insurgent groups, who have set up bases in that country and their leaders such as the elusive ULFA (anti-talk) leader Paresh Barua. Besides sharing his experiences and insights, Shri Bhattacharyya will also show exclusive pictures of the region as well as that of the insurgent leaders he met and their bases.
