The separate state of Jharkhand was a dream of all. A layout had been made of how it would be.
How did this come about? Who made the sacrifices? Where were the people tortured? How many lost their lives? The reason for this book to be written was to document the sacrifices of these people who created Jharkhand. It is a tribute to keep alive their memory and contribution.
The book deals with stories of these unsung heroes in six sections. The first highlights the tragedy of those killed by the police. Also those who were caught in cross-firing.
The second section comprises stories of revolutionaries who became victims of the mafia and thugs.
The third section throws light on the role played by the non-tribal revolutionaries.
In the fourth section, the stories are dedicated to the role of women in the Jharkhand Movement.
The fifth section discusses about the Role of All Jharkhand Student Union (AJSU).
The sixth section brings forth the plight of those who died due to lack of treatment, of natural causes or in accidents. They, however, played a major role in the Movement. It also mentions those who are living and carrying on the good work.
