Summary:
Was this the dream of our founding fathers, this ever widening chasm between have's and have-nots? set in post-independent India, the film "Bridging the gap between India and Bharat" sets out to explore the intent of the Mahatma Gandhi National Employment Guarantee Act, and its implementation over the past 5 years. The film journeys through districts in Rajasthan, Bihar, Sikkim and Andhra Pradesh, in search of visible change that has happened on the ground level. Speaking to beneficiaries, sarpanches, district collectors, state secretaries, social activists, one message that echoes through the film is that the potency of this act is undeniable.
