The SC/ST (Prevention of Atrocities) Act was created to protect people from real harm and discrimination. When a law is enforced without balance or strong checks, it can be misused — and that misuse damages trust in the system meant to deliver justice.

Recently, Zohran Mamdani’s “hijab day” post drew fierce criticism for promoting religious symbolism in public spaces, igniting debates over free expression versus secular neutrality – which he is clearly not upholding.

Failures of Imported DEI/Woke Frameworks Imported (failed Western experiments) DEI theories are being applied to India without regard for its unique social and civilizational history.

Hinduism has often been associated with passivism, with religion being identified as a critical factor in reinforcing this perception. Themes of peace, harmony, and universality are integral to Hindu culture. Nevertheless, it isContinue Reading
