Chapter VII: The X-Ray
For decades, the border region has witnessed the atrocities of Indian border guards whose terror reigns over the people of that area. The unclear identity of the Indian inhabitants of the border zone confounds the security guards with the Bangladeshi people. It is hard to distinguish Indians from Bangladeshis because of their identical physical structure and language.
I used the X-ray plates and the image of the victims to portray the atrocities. It is hard to determine a person’s nationality by viewing an X-ray plate.
