Shadikhampur, an urban village located in west Delhi, has a rich history upheld by its community members. It evidently got lost in the vivid mess of urbanity.
In an initiative to resurface its community's history, Jana Natya Manch,a left-wing theatre group in collaboration with the Ambedkar University of Delhi (AUD) is organizing a neighbourhood museum beginning today.
The exhibition will be put up in Safdar Studio, a part of an adjoining cafe cum bookstore, popularly known as May Day, a cubbyhole for Left-wing idealists and theatre enthusiasts.
The idea was grafted by Surajit Sarkar who works with AUD. The exhibition has been curated by Sarkar and Sudhanva Deshpande, an old associate of Janam and the editor of the publishing house Left Word books.
The scheme of the exhibition is to record the community's local history, attract its dwellers to visit and form a cohesive bond among each other and recount their days of yore.
"It is a bilingual exhibition in which the local residents will be able to watch their own stories and will also interest the other community members to eventually reveal the tales of their forefathers," says Komita Dhanda, coordinator of this project.
