Synopsis:
Highway safety is an accurate barometer of our economic health, so poor roads, truckers' fatigue and bribing and looting are signs that its basic fabric is fraying at the edges. We tell this story by riding with truck drivers from Delhi to Guwahati, showing the enormous risks involved in carrying essential goods from the capital right up to insurgency- ridden Assam.
