Kullu valley is steeped deep in faith. It isn’t an exaggeration to say that nothing moves in the valley without the consent of the local gods. The many deities from the valleys spread across the length and breadth of the district from Manali (that shares its border with Lahaul-Spiti district) to Seraj (that meets Mandi and Shimla) are at the centre of life. The colourful palanquins, or raths as they are called, are the fulcrum of all activity; not just during the world-famous Kullu Dasehra, but also at every major and minor festivity, in times of trouble too. ....

A confidential letter from Mesopotamia in March 1916 called urgently for 450 latrine sweepers from India. In temperatures unlike what they had ever faced in India, the Indian Labour Corps had been constructing roads, railways, bridges. Basra was to be a major port to launch the military campaign during World War I. When Radhika Singha came across this letter dated March 1916 at the National Archives in New Delhi, she wondered why it was marked “Confidential”. More research revealed that there had been a cholera outbreak in Basra and “.sweepers were going to be placed in jeopardy at the epidemic front”. Later, dhobis were to be called in, too, tasked with disinfecting military hospitals, exposing them to high risk. By the time the Mesopotamia campaign ended, 3,000 men from Indian Labour Corps had died in Basra alone. During the five-year commemorations of the Great War, not a tear was shed for these dead.
