Hung on the Horizon

About Hung on the Horizon

Gaje Singh strove to improve the lives of the peasantry and labourers by revolting against the powers that he believed embodied the bourgeoisie. He had to flee to avoid arrest but ended up getting involved with the Naxalites. His progeny sank deeper into the quagmire, no matter how hard they tried to extricate themselves. The system they were fighting against progressed despite wars, calamities, poverty, and violence, moving towards economic liberalisation, technological revolution, and self-reliance; however, this progress did not make much of a difference to the lives of the destitute. Notwithstanding this, they did not lose hope, as was the case with a captive young Maoist who, despite all hardships and disadvantages, still believed that the dawn of justice was somewhere on the horizon.

Description of Hung on the Horizon

Gaje Singh strove to improve the lives of the peasantry and labourers by revolting against the powers that he believed embodied the bourgeoisie. He had to flee to avoid arrest but ended up getting involved with the Naxalites. His progeny sank deeper into the quagmire, no matter how hard they tried to extricate themselves.

The system they were fighting against progressed despite wars, calamities, poverty, and violence, moving towards economic liberalisation, technological revolution, and self-reliance; however, this progress did not make much of a difference to the lives of the destitute.

Notwithstanding this, they did not lose hope, as was the case with a captive young Maoist who, despite all hardships and disadvantages, still believed that the dawn of justice was somewhere on the horizon.
