Description

This book of photographs takes us to the West Khasi Hills in Meghalaya and the defining moment when 90-year-old Kong Spillity Lyngdoh Langrin, under whose land lay a rich seam of high-grade uranium, stood up and told those who sought to mine it: “Em”. No.

That refusal turned into a rallying cry for a people fighting to save their homeland.
Tarun Bhartiya’s compelling images, made over several decades, and his terse journal notes, distill Kong Spillity’s defiance and the protest it inspired into a moving celebration of civic resistance.
