The book follows the journey of Anzer Ayoob, a commoner born in the foothills of the Himalayas in Thathri, Jammu, and Kashmir. Anzer's journey begins with his activism work as a teenager and the struggles he faced in getting local issues covered by mainstream media. Frustrated with the lack of response, Anzer takes matters into his own hands and creates a web portal that focuses on the issues of the Chenab Valley. Through this platform, he gives a voice to the people of the region and brings attention to their struggles.
