A Mission to End Impunity
Ensaaf is a nonprofit organization working to end impunity and achieve justice for mass state crimes in India, with a focus on Punjab.
Watch survivors and human rights activists tell how the Punjab Police destroyed families by illegally executing and "disappearing" tens of thousands of Sikh civilians. Impunity in Punjab also exposes the near total failure of India's judicial and state institutions to provide justice, and highlights the continuing impunity enjoyed by the officials responsible for the crimes.
