Description
Once Upon A Time in Jaipur is a compelling non-fiction account that revisits one of the most tragic chapters in the history of Jaipur—the serial bomb blasts that shook the Pink City on 13 May 2008. Written by Satya Pareek, this extensively researched book presents a detailed narrative of the events, investigations, court proceedings, eyewitness accounts, and the lasting impact of the tragedy on the city and its people.
Through factual documentation, archival records, photographs, and legal analyses, the author explores how a peaceful evening in Jaipur turned into a nightmare within minutes. The book sheds light on the human stories behind the headlines, the struggles of victims’ families, the complexities of the judicial process, and the broader social and political questions raised by the incident.
Rich in historical context and investigative detail, Once Upon A Time in Jaipur is more than a chronicle of a terror attack—it is a record of resilience, remembrance, and the pursuit of justice. This book is an essential read for readers interested in contemporary Indian history, true crime, terrorism studies, public policy, and the socio-political landscape of modern India.
