Project Heartland captures the struggles of people from marginalised communities, mainly Dalits in Gujarat. It shows the courage and determination of Dalit women and men to assert their rights despite all odds. Project Heartland wants these brave people to be known, recognised, and be seen as an inspiration to others.
This YouTube mini series brings out different stories from the heartland of Gujarat which are often left unheard.
In Episode 1: We focus on Ramji bhai, a Dalit from the Amargadh village, who has been fighting for justice for many years. He hasn't given up despite the threats and pressures.
