I like my daughter’s analogy of caste hierarchy. “That’s like the topper became a topper by murdering the rest of the students for multiple generations, and the ones that survived are made to live in ghettos, forbidden to touch drinking water, and shamed at every opportunity.”

0.04% of the population have over 25% of India’s wealth. Inequality should have been an important debate this election. Instead, it has been reduced to a dogwhistling communal campaign by the BJP.

2015: FTII under Gajendra Chauhan slaps disciplinary action against a student, Payal Kapadia. She had boycotted classes& led the 4-month long protest against Chauhan. Later, FTII cut her grant. 2024: Payal Kapadia’s All We Imagine As Light wins the #Cannes2024 Grand Prix ✨

I hope that whenever (and if) there is a reckoning Aroon Purie pays the price for the evil that he has overseen. If I go into what he deserves it would probably be a ToS violation on Twitter.

आभार नगीना, आपका चन्द्र शेखर आजाद।

hope this ends the bogus claim of elite savarns that India cant progress cuz poor rural (marginalized) r stupid & sell votes for liqor, cash etc-- its that same group which has humbled a powerful regime backed by billionaires & legitimized by media!

The privileged in India across the political spectrum are blind to how their “amenities” and “development” are built on the bones of the marginalised. You don’t see the land acquired, the homes demolished, the hawkers chased away, the trees cut.

Le bhai.. gin le. Kitne Hindu hai, Kitne Musalman hai.

The same newspaper, one day apart. A lesson in manufacturing consent 🇷🇺🇮🇱

Remember the horrific Tuticorin police firing in 2018 that killed 13 people demanding closure of a polluting Sterlite unit? The Madras High Court today called the firing a premeditated act carried out at the behest of an industrialist to crush the protest. timesofindia.indiatimes.com/city/chennai/t…
