A pandemic which killed an estimated 2 to 6.4% of India's population, and became one of the only decades where our population actually declined. It's largely forgotten today. What did the 1918 Pandemic have to do with Jim Corbett and the leopards of Kumaon? What does it have to do with the home grown FMCG giant Godrej? In the last episode of the Dark Tourism Series, we travel across the length and breadth of India to understand why did we forget such a catastrophe, and what lessons it holds for us as citizens today.
