Film Screening: Prisoner No. 626710 is Present, or Qaidi No. 626710 Haazir Hai
This event is co-sponsored by the Center for South Asia and the Department of Art and Art History.
Prisoner No. 626710 is Present chronicles the arrest and prolonged incarceration of activist Umar Khalid, accused of orchestrating the 2020 New Delhi riots. Through archival footage and personal accounts, Lalit Vachani explores Khalid’s activism, the impact of his imprisonment on his partner Banojyotsna Lahiri, and the broader crackdown on dissent under the Modi government. The film situates Khalid’s story within the larger political repression of civil rights movements and Muslim voices in India.
