WATCH: Elon Musk points out that "the fundamental moral flaw of the left is empathy for the criminals and not empathy for the victims." "It's undermining the people's faith in the legal system. It needs to stop."

"Mayawati's name in Episten File." 🚨 This bastard Sandeep Chaudhary made highly objectionable remarks about Behen Ji on national TV. Very poor upbringing. Anchor Bhavishya Tyagi neither stopped him nor raised any objection. He is also sick. Manu Media calls such misogynist crabs as political analysts. Such vile and irresponsible journalism cannot be tolerated. Strict action and accountability must follow. I strongly condemn this and demand strict legal action against Sandeep Chaudhary, anchor Bhavishya Tyagi, and TV9 Bharatvarsh. Behen Mayawati is the voice of crores of marginalized people in this country.

What does this picture teach you?

Casteism does not go away because you pretend it does not exist. Labelling food as "Prepared by Brahmins" normalises and reinforces caste hierarchy in subtle, everyday ways: It implies that food prepared by Brahmins is superior/purer and, by extension, food prepared by others might be less so or "impure" It taps into Brahminical ideas of ritual purity/pollution that have historically justified caste discrimination, e.g., who can cook for whom, who can eat together. Even if the intent is just "traditional recipe" or "support local Brahmin makers," it perpetuates the idea that caste is a legitimate qualifier for quality or cleanliness in something as basic as food. This mirrors broader patterns in India where caste shows up in kitchens, canteens, matrimonial ads, job preferences, etc., and often defended as "culture" or "preference," but it upholds exclusion and hierarchy. Ignoring or downplaying such markers, e.g., "it's just about taste" or "no harm intended", allows caste-based signalling to continue unchallenged in daily life. Calling it out directly is necessary because pretending these labels are neutral or harmless lets the underlying structure persist.

This letter is doing the rounds. There is apparently a proposal to raise the pecuniary jurisdiction of the District Courts to INR 20 cr. That would mean that most IP matters would go to the district courts mostly because financial claims in IP cases are tentative until discovery/ trial. The new threshold would mean up front court fees of INR 20 Lakh which is frankly crazy. Big blow to the ‘IP Bar’ in the DHC obviously. Perhaps the price for being the most ‘ip savvy’ high court in India’?
