I spend a lot of time reading the Indian Constituent Assembly Debates, and I have long heard rumors that the audio (and some video recordings) exist. I am THRILLED that @prasarbharati archives are digitizing it and putting it online. And they are magnificent to listen to(1)

Thread It is true @ReallySwara’s mother Prof Ira Bhaskar of JNU (arts & Aesthetics) has destroyed the career of many DBA students including personal friends and I have witnessed how terribly she destroyed them from within and they are still unable to cope and move ahead.

Stop erasing Indigenous resistance @TIME @IndiaToday

Caste discrimination in America. “One Dalit woman who is from the Valkimi caste, whose occupation historically has been to clean up excrement, was humiliated by her Indian co-workers and asked to clean up after team meetings as some sort of sick joke.”
