A man reportedly entered the premises of Rajgruh Tuesday night and smashed flower pots, damaged plants, CCTV camera and pelted stones at a window before fleeing.
The credit of drawing parallels between racial and caste discrimination goes to Jotirao Phule who compared conditions of Blacks in the US and Dalits in India.
There is no evidence to support the claims that Ambedkar visited an RSS workshop or that Thengadi was Ambedkar’s election agent in 1954 Bhandara bypoll.
Arun Anand claimed Ambedkar was impressed by RSS and his party formed a pre-poll alliance with Bharatiya Jana Sangh before 1952 Madhya Pradesh elections.
Periyar had suggested Ambedkar convert to Islam. After years of research, I too found Islam to be the only religion in India that could annihilate the caste system.
YouTube channels run by Dalits have millions of subscribers. Is this a new segregation in India or the emergence of a much-needed diversity in media ownership?
In an interview with Anandabazar Patrika Shankar waxed eloquent about her many objections to the pallu not covering the bosom area of Gen Z women. She called them ‘women of the street’.
With an educated & skilled workforce, Tamil Nadu has a burgeoning industrial sector which has scored massive investments in automobiles, electronics, and even footwear.
The ‘idea’ Kejriwal's politics grew around was a no-holds-barred fight against corruption. That is the reason Modi govt has now tarred him and his entire party with the same paint.
The credit of maintaining and supporting democracy for a long period of 73 years goes to the people of India. To this effect I think the culture and the civilization of this wast country which has shaped her population is probably the cause of such unusual outcome. Indians by nature are peace loving “mild” people. (May be that is why they were also enslaved for such a long period.). This also sets an example for the world for universal existence. Who says an environment has no effect of the genetic makeup (DNA) of a community? Is epigenetic is at work in India?
“During these decades of independence, the country has been run democratically “. A very bold statement by Prof. Varshney but not surprising as he left India at at the age about of twenty years . Those who are old enough know that till the date Prof Varshney was born it was hero worship. During the period Prof Varshney was a student in now infamous JNU he experienced Post Hero- Worship democracy and refers to it as ” twenty-one months of the infamous Emergency from 1975 to 1977″. Subsequently an illusion of democracy was created by T.N.Seshan and he was dubbed as “The man who cleaned up the Indian electoral system”. This illusion persisted for a few decades and this was necessary to get the government that represents all who matter in India today. Now today we have a true Ram Raj , the government of the Brahmans , Khatris and Vyasas in that order that all the Sadhu , Sants dreamed of. Who needs Democracy ?

A government of laws, not of men. That ideal seems to have receded further over the horizon for India.
