In this chapter, the author describes his meeting with a man who had put him on a hit-list. This man, Mr. Barotia, was a member of an ultra-right-wing Hindu group, and offended that the author had married a Muslim. Mr. Barotia was proud of the killings of Muslims in Gujarat. The author disliked Mr. Barotia and his views but also saw a part of himself, and his own provincial past, in Mr. Barotia’s prejudices.
