Many people have covered my story in the past, but this podcast is close to my heart because important parts were not edited out of it. @confusedvichar has been doing commendable work. People should support him, especially Savarnas, who call themselves Bahujan allies. Jai Bhim!

With two more deaths at Nuh in NCR, 50 Indian citizens have died in sewers and septic tanks in just over 100 days this year! But our parliament will never have a special session to discuss and eradicate this barbaric, caste-based practice! #stopkillingus #WomenReservationBill

200 Dalit workers, lured to New Jersey, USA on a "religious visa," were forced to work as bonded laborers on this marble BAPS temple. Forced to work without protection, some got a lung disease and died. This is a form of trasnational 'modern slavery'. theguardian.com/us-news/2026/a…

At the middle of the Gadkari family's sprawling agro-business empire is Rembal Agro, a beef company that has quietly risen to international prominence. Despite all this evidence to suggest that Rembal and Gadkari's Cian Agro are far more than just client and customer, there is no official disclosure about the relationship between the two entities. Cian Agro is a large umbrella, dealing with everything from growing, processing and freezing vegetables to selling rice, sugar, biofertilisers and personal care products. It has subsumed several companies and built others from scratch, but Rembal and its meat production seem to have been kept at an arm’s distance, fully separate on paper despite being a functional part of the empire. The same confusion lay with the products that Rembal and Mithr sell. Some of their advertising material clearly marked their products as buffalo meat—called buff or carabeef in the industry—as did some of their brochures and certification. However, on Mithr’s website, several products are marked as beef, a term usually reserved for the meat of cows and bulls, while others specifically note buffalo meat.

Nepal Govt Formally Apologizes to Dalit for historical injustice. When will India?

Nepal’s government has taken a historic step by deciding to formally apologize to Dalit and marginalized communities for decades of oppression. It will acknowledge past injustices, and within 15 days, announce reforms aimed at justice, equality and meaningful social upliftment.

Privileged caste judges in supreme court are deciding who can be caregorised under Schedule Caste or Dalit based on which religion they convert to. #savarnacourt
