He is a Muslim Kashmiri boy who is shifted from his home in Srinagar’s down town, to a madrasa in New Delhi. Mind you, shifted by his own parents in the hope that he will be able to survive and study in a stress-free scenario, far away from the curfews and crackdowns that disrupt life in the Kashmir Valley.

He writes details of the painful taunts and situations, as he is shifted from one locale to the next, finally finding safe refuge in a Calicut situated ‘home’ for children from all communities. Until another destined turn intrudes, leaving him devastated.
