Jharana Jhaveri & Anurag Singh

Jharana Jhoveri (originally from Bombay) and Anuragh Singh (of tribal origins, in the Madhya Prodesh district, which now lies under water as a result of the construction of the Bargi dam) have been working together since 1991 under the Jan Madhyam label. Their goal is to provide “a megaphone for voices that no one listens to”. They have made a dozen documentaries on civil battles and human conditions, from the Santhal tribe resistance movement to protests by miners in Chattisgarh; from exiled Burmese students’ peace efforts in India to the horrid working conditions of rickshaw drivers: from reports on homeless rural immigrants in big cities to battles for people's rights to be informed.
