AAP and Down

‘In the first NC meeting after AAP’s creation, Arvind had said: “This party is not the property of 300 founding members but of the lakhs and crores of people in this country.” This refreshing stance shifted over time, got corrupted by power . . . till, one day, Arvind told me: I do not want intellectuals in the party, just people who say “Bharat Mata ki Jai”.’ Authored by a former member of the Aam Aadmi Party’s (AAP) National Executive, AAP & Down is an in-depth account of the emergence and sudden unspooling of one of India’s most closely watched parties.

Ruhaan and Ayesha, a young couple from Mumbai, are on vacation in the southern beach town of Pondicherry when they receive the shock of their lives—their two little children have gone missing from the famous Promenade Beach. DSP Siva Raghavan, who is battling his own demons, takes over the investigation, but complicating matters is the presence of NGO worker Gayathri Meshram and ex-CBI man Girish Pradhan, who bring their own perspectives to the case. Meanwhile, the Jan Seva Dal and its vice-president Sesh Kumar are making their presence felt in the southern state in their own way. As the investigation leads Siva and his men to some unexpected places, will the perpetrators be found in time? Will the two little swallows who once lived in Ruhaan’s nest ever return home?

An Engaging Compilation of Perspectives on Climate Activism The impassioned essays, noteworthy profiles and first-person narratives in this anthology champion grassroots and global environmental movements that have persuaded policymakers and mobilized communities to take note of the worsening state of the natural order. From the Global South to the Global North, change advocates and those experiencing the thick of the emergency revisit the tipping points in their activism journey, lay out harsh truths about the extent of damage caused and offer scalable solutions to combat the mounting crisis. Outlining their rage, despair, fears and hope for the future, the campaigners underscore that there may be reasons to be optimistic despite the dreary reality we find ourselves in. While calling for collective action, these wide-ranging, inspiring and urgent stories reflect a diverse landscape of climate activism and are enough evidence that a sea change is possible.
