Thirty Stories of Agony: Poignant Accounts from a Community Forced to Migrate

PRSO in collaboration with Open Society Foundations brings out & documents personal narratives and life stories of 30 Hindu and Sikh citizens of Afghanistan compiled in a book form in English, Persian/Dari and Pashto languages. The book serves as an oral history of this ethnic and religious minority in Afghanistan who have gone through years of persecution, discrimination and humiliation. These thirty narrations are gathered through face-to-face interviews with members of Hindu and Sikh communities in 10 provinces including Kabul, Kandahar, Nangarhar, Ghazni, Kunduz, Helmand, Paktia, Parwan, Khost and Laghman. Interviews have also been conducted with diaspora Afghan Hindus and Sikhs in India, Canada, the United Kingdom and Australia where they have migrated.
