Reportage by Getty Images TumblrIn the run-up to World Photo Day on Aug. 19, we’re highlighting five Instagrammers previously featured in a #ReportageSpotlight roundup. Today’s photographer is Ravi Mishra (@ravimishraindia), who lives in New Delhi, India. A native of Mumbai, Ravi received an undergraduate degree in mass communication and journalism, and for the last ten years has worked a photographer and producer on assignments throughout his country. For the last five years, he has been working on a project about illegal coal mining and its social and environmental costs.

Around 45 families lost their homes and almost all their belongings, as their houses collapsed in a massive land subsidence in Katras region, injuring more then 10-12 people, who were admitted in a private nursing home. See more of Ravi’s work by following @ravimishraindia.
