Chauhan CAMERA: Athar Rather PRODUCER: Zijah Sherwani THE QUINT's Tridip K Mandal shot the documentary Diaries from a Detention Camp in September 2019, soon after Assam NRC was
announced. The final NRC left out more than 19 lakh people, and since its announcement, the pressing question has been: _Will these 19 lakh people end up in detention camps?_ He travelled to
Goalpara in Assam to seek answers. There, he met 9-year-old Sawata Dey. Her father, Subrata Dey, was put in a detention camp in 2018 due to a mismatch in his name on his voter ID card.
Declared a ‘foreigner’, he was arrested. Within two months, Subrata lost his life in the detention camp. Sawata had believed her father would be released but one day, they brought home his
dead body.
