The Road from Ayodhya: Muslim Inclusion in a New India

Open Society Fellow Basharat Peer discusses his visit to the city of Ayodhya, site of the destruction of a historic medieval mosque by a Hindu mob in 1992. Through a series of interviews he conducted in Muslim neighborhoods in New Delhi and several other cities, Peer looks at the ways India's Muslim population—the world's largest religious minority—have been trying to find their place at a time of rapid economic growth and lingering sectarian tensions.

Peer is introduced by Amrit Singh, senior legal officer of the National Security and Counterterrorism Project of the Open Society Justice Initiative.

Peer's new book, Curfewed Night, has just been published by Scribner.
