Radio Haanji Podcast
Can a single lamp halt the advance of absolute darkness? In this deeply moving episode of Des Punjab Ki Gal Kiche on Radio Haanji 1674 AM, hosts Pritam Singh Rupal and Gautam Kapil dissect the cinematic masterpiece Satluj and the intense political controversies surrounding its sudden censorship and ban in 2026. Chronicling the real-life investigation of Shaheed Jaswant Singh Khalra, who uncovered municipal records proving the secret, illegal cremation of over 25,000 citizens by state authorities during Punjab's counter-insurgency era, this episode goes beyond the headlines. The hosts break down the harsh realities of the 1980s and 1990s, the tragic loss of innocent lives across community lines, and the fear that grips the political establishment when cinema demands systemic accountability. Furthermore, they draw striking parallels to the controlled journalism landscape of 1995, detailing how mainstream national media echoed state narratives while the local Punjabi press operated under an atmosphere of suffocating terror. Tune in for an honest, humanized, and unfiltered exploration of a history that refuses to remain buried.
