  • Book Review - Caste Pride: Battles For Equality In Hindu India

    The book is organized into five sections and eighteen chapters and delves into legislative, judicial and government records to map the trajectory of caste, especially in the past two centuries-from the early codes of punishment, the various provisions given by the colonial state to exempt upper castes from serious punishments, the breast cloth controversy, various struggles for temple entry, to the judgment delivered on the Khairlanji caste atrocity in 2019.
