Forty Children of Bhopal
Debut Photobook by Savraj Kaur

"This book reminds us how the gas leak of December 1984 continues to cause devastation, even four decades later. Yet the stories in this collection are of hope, resilience, and joy..."
Dr. Vandana Shiva
“This little book of Savraj’s that you hold in your hand is a great achievement…. The clinic it celebrates, founded to help the innocent victims of a greedy US corporation, itself sprang into existence out of nothing. The Chingari clinic was the dream of two humble ladies who had nothing but will-power to make it come true.”

"This timely, warm, devastating book puts a human face on the human price of one of the world’s worst industrial disasters … still going on, unbelievably, after 40 long, bitter years. What has happened to Bhopal is a terrible tale, but there is also much light and joy in this book. As there is in Bhopal itself."
