My Sister Malati is not a witch

Abstract The story is loosely based on accounts of rape and witch‐hunting I came across during my fieldwork in Kokrajhar, Assam, India. It is set against the backdrop of insurgency, armed conflicts, and peace accords signed in Assam in the past. Although I have used original names of places and festivals, this work is a piece of fiction.
