Excuse Me, Can We Have Our Country Back?

Every day, the common man of India struggles against the ills of corruption, poor governance, pollution, a dysfunctional educational system and more. The common man, who is at the receiving end of it all, feels betrayed and abandoned by the powers that be. With tongue-in-cheek cartoons, illustrations, prose and poetry, this highlights the plight of the citizens of this country. The citizens want a better India, but what will that India look like? With just the right touch of humour, Suraj ‘Eskay’ Sriram gives us his take on the present and his vision of the future.
