Forty years later, the survivors remain on the margins, struggling with time, old-age issues, and the gruesome experiences of Chaurasi that drastically impacted their lives. Those who were children at the time and survived are now past their middle age. They have witnessed the struggles of their elders, particularly mothers and grandparents, who courageously fought for justice often until the end of their lives. The aftermath of these events resulted in forms of trauma that have remained unaddressed, leading many children from these families into drug addiction and petty crimes.</p> <p> </p>2024-12-31T00:00:00+00:00Copyright (c) 2024 Coolabah
