Up Against Darkness
Girish, Prajakta and their countless lieutenants have willingly torn apart the silky case of their life’s cocoon and thrown themselves into treacherous social battlefields to help thousands of people over the years. Whether it is rescuing trafficked people sold to brothels, rehabilitating rape survivors, sheltering and educating orphaned children, helping HIV/AIDS patients in need or safeguarding neglected and abandoned children, Snehalaya has done it all. Up Against Darkness not only documents the various lives that have been transformed by the work that Snehalaya does but also shares a glimpse of everything that goes into running an organisation that primarily deals with the marginalised.
