Why laws have not ended caste violence in India, with Manoj Mitta
Even though we talk about caste through the lens of politics, reportage, and even personalities, the intersection of caste and law is often overlooked. Even though it is the law that has been used again and again as the main weapon in the fight for social equality.
In this episode, Sandip Roy talks to journalist Manoj Mitta, who in his latest book ‘Caste Pride: Battles for Equality in Hindu India’ examines the resilience and violence of the Hindu caste system through the legal lens, and ends up uncovering the controversies and decisions that have shaped the fight against caste.
