BBC and The Ghosts of 2002

A number of people have asked me a question: what is your view on the recent BBC documentary on the 2002 Gujarat violence. As someone who spent days, weeks, months, years, tracking the violence and its aftermath, I honestly have been reluctant to give typical soundbite casual throwaway opinion. Gujarat 2002 is a multi-layered story, the BBC documentary only un-peels one part of that complex story , leaving much unspoken and unsaid.
