Across #UttarPradesh , Christian priests and worshippers are being jailed, beaten, threatened and intimidated, by both Hindutva groups and the police.

In fifty years of observing Indian elections I have never seen such vile and hate-filled rhetoric. Every day the ruling party and its top leaders plumb a new low. It is for Hindus above all to stand up and say: These bigots do not speak in our name.

On this Labor Day, let us remember what Baba Saheb had said :

Two things are bound to happen in a capitalist parliamentary democracy. Those who work must live in poverty and those who do not work accumulate immense wealth.

Labour is ours so Union must be ours.

Two things are bound to happen in a capitalist parliamentary democracy. Those who work must live in poverty and those who do not work accumulate immense wealth. On the one hand political equality and on the other economic inequality.
~Babasaheb Ambedkar .

#LabourDay

On May Day, red salute to the greatest hero of the Indian working classes. Ambedkar gave us the 8 hour work day, weekend offs, minimum wage guidelines, maternity benefits even before we got independence from the British ++

I'm excited to write my next book for HarperCollins on Bhimrao #Ambedkar as a democratic theorist of importance for divided times. His philosophy is vital for #India , the U.S., & any democracy charged with seeking unity & justice. #navayanapragmatism #jaibhim #pragmatism

Do join us tomorrow evening at the India International Centre!

'Over the past week, Prime Minister Narendra Modi has repeatedly lied on the campaign trail... He claimed the Congress planned to seize and redistribute private wealth to Muslims, labelling them “infiltrators” and “those who have more children.''

When the constitution of India was finalized, the RSS complained:
“To this day his laws as enunciated in the Manusmriti excite the admiration of the world and elicit spontaneous obedience and conformity. But to our constitutional pundits that means nothing' (Organiser).

Hindu supremacist groups “offer an avenue through which the Far Right can... [sow] divisions within communities of color, splintering one of the most reliable bastions of Democratic votes.”

Sir, As your student I have to state this that you are contradicting your own claims. आप ही लिखे थे मोदी ओबीसी विरोधी है।
Any specific reason for this shift from anti modi to pro modi?
