Vantage is the annual publication of the Department of Communication, University of Hyderabad. It is produced by the students of the "Feature and Analytical Writing" course which was taught during the final semester. We are the first batch to be producing the magazine online. 

I am so lucky to have my article "Trauma pushes women to give up pursuit of justice" to be chosen as one of 'the cover stories'  by our course instructor Prof. Anjali Lal Gupta.  

My article dealt with finding out important reasons for the glaring gap between the investigation and punishment for human trafficking in Telangana. In spite of a humongous charge-sheeting rate of 98% for the 184 cases registered that year, the conviction rate is abysmally low at 1.9% only. 

I had the opportunity to speak with lawyers, police officials and counsellors during my research for this piece. I would say that it was mostly possible because of the able guidance of Prof. Anjali and her constant support throughout this journey.
