About the Book:

Whither Justice is a compelling and thought-provoking exploration of the lives of women in Indian prisons. In this gripping narrative, Nandini Oza, an activist and social worker, gives voice to the voiceless, a name to the forgotten, and justice to the abused. Drawing from her firsthand experiences, Oza takes readers inside the walls of India's prisons, offering a disturbing yet necessary look at the struggles of incarcerated women.

Through her work in the Narmada Bachao Andolan and her fieldwork in the Baroda Central Jail, Oza was exposed to the hardships faced by women prisoners. These women, often victims of government apathy, family neglect, and crushing poverty, are the silent sufferers of society's injustices. In Whither Justice, Oza recounts their battles, their resilience, and their relentless fight for justice against the overwhelming forces of society.

This book is not just an expose but a heartfelt call for reform, shining a light on the systemic issues within the prison system and the gender-based injustices women endure. Oza’s powerful storytelling and her deep commitment to social justice make Whither Justice a significant contribution to discussions on human rights and the need for change in the Indian legal and prison system.
