- Uranium is a vital mineral for India’s ambitious nuclear power programme. Out of the seven states with uranium reserves, Jharkhand and Andhra Pradesh have currently operating mines. In Jharkhand’s Jaduguda region, which has India’s oldest uranium mines, local communities narrate stories of suffering due to degrading health and the environment. The government, however, denies any ill-impact of uranium mining on people. The Indian government is aiming to increase uranium exploration and mining.
These images and interviews were taken by photographer Subhrajit Sen between 2016-2019 around uranium mines in Jharkhand. Some of the photos contain sensitive content.

I liked how you are trying to raise awareness about this. But at least you could have used a Geiger counter and measured the level of radiation. That would have given you enough data to show how high the radiation in the surrounding villages is compared to the safe level. Also, don't use the black and white filter unnecessarily to dramatise the condition, it looks stupid, not great.
My God, what a beautiful landscape, This what happened in Thuuthukuddy in Tamil Nadu, people who opposed it were shot dead by the Govt. We should stand together and fight against this corrupted government. No choice.
Soon this will happen in Meghalaya also becuase of Uranium in Domiasiat
