In The Name Of Blasphemy: A Book About Religious Riots In India
The second largest migration in India after its partition. A story that shows a glimpse of the inhuman 2013-riots of Muzaffarnagar. When everyone was moving out of the city, a retired teacher takes a decision to stay.
Masterji once used to have answers to everything in life, from small outwardly doubts related to ordinary life to unfathomable inward contemplation that tortured a human soul. But as the inhumanly evil in the form of riots continues in the city, he finds himself again surrounded by so many disturbing questions that nobody can answer.
A painful story of learning, friendship, life, childhood, riots, religion, and politics

Wow. Very touching book. I really liked the character development. This book really sinks its claws into you and doesn't let go until the very end.

Just finished reading In The Name Of Blasphemy, Couldn't have loved it better. Maturity and knowledge of the times certainly helped my bliss.
Masterji is no doubt a meticulously created characters.
This is no doubt one of the best books I have read this year.

It is one of the most heart wrenching books I have read till now. It makes me feel sad about what happened. I nearly bawled my eyes out during the last few pages. I will highly recommend it.

It is sad that the things turned out like this, and whatever happened was very sad. This one indeed is a tearjerker.
