@ Hindi Heartland

This blog is all about the Hindi heartland, its vibrant socio-cultural ethos, its poor economics and volatile politics. Dubbed derisively as India’s cowbelt, bhaiyaland or the badlands, it’s the Hindi heartland that produced the best of babus. But it became infamous for its incontrovertible controversies and crimes. If Mumbai is known for its undying spirit, cowbelt can be known for the special warmth that the people here exude.
