Bit of a shot in the dark but does anyone here have the reading list for MSS Pandian's course "Caste, Culture and Community: An Alternative Intellectual History of Modern India" at CHS, JNU? jnu folks help me out here! retweet for reach pls - coffee on me if you are in Delhi :)

@vishsidd2007 @gandabherunda So, if there a difference in pronunciation, it makes the entire family elitist? she already belonged to a well-off Punjabi family. I don't think she was desperate to be a Malayali!

@divkan1 @gandabherunda Not all ,, theirs a difference in pronunciation, her family just wanted to be the elitist ,,

His mom changed her name from Nayyar to Nair to sound elitist & enchanted by Kerala traditions. Nairs follow matrilineal lineage. So Zohran on that account should have been a Hindu & not a Mohammaden. Yet, he calls him self a Khwaja Shia from Gujarat origin . This guy is a bigger fraud than Kamala Harris.

@madhukishwar why are you having a meltdown over ? You are a true blooded hater of literally every human being and all you know is to spew venom. And nobody changed their surname to become Nair elite. LOL. It takes a lot of courage to have an inter-faith marriage and raise a good human being.

Mamdani's mother Meera Nair was my contemporary at Miranda House. She is from a wealthy Punjabi family which was driven out of the region that became Pakistan. And yet she is a true blooded Hindu hater! She changed the spelling of her name from Punjabi "Nayyar" to "Nair" to the more elitist Kerala's Nairs. Her marriage to Mamdani shows that she thinks very highly of Mazhabeez. Knowing her bent of mind, I did not support her proposal to make a commercial film on my reports on the 1984 anti Sikh riots. She had scripted a crude love story around that national tragedy! Her film " Salaam Bombay" betrayed her crass commercial self. The ugly fake narrative she created around the "Kaun Banega Crorepati" was malicious beyond belief. Her film "Monsoon Wedding" was a crass caricature of Punjabi Hindus --her own community. OR "Mississipi Masala" where all the Blacks are great guys with strong family values, whereas the Hindus in Africa are depicted as crude, loud mouthed, vulgar racists, without any sanskars. All this and more shows that she doesn't mind demonising and demeaning her own people in order to make money and join the elite Woke Club.

@ThetaOwner Why isn't your blood boiling at all the princely rulers who ran to befriend the British, took them tiger hunting and feasting, agreed to do their bidding in order to preserve their property ? all those feudal landlords who gave a damn about peasants ? Selective blood boiling !

Oh let me complete the story. She was forcefully taken by the brits. She was forcefully converted. She was forcefully made to marry a 50 year old white asshole. She was pregnant at 20 And died at 21. This is how they treated an Indian Coorgi princess. Your blood should boil.

@tishasaroyan He referred to your statistical claim about more readers from a particular group. Meant Indian Statistical Institute. Please don't embarrass yourself like this.

Dúngbrain tells me that because my videos have an impact I should be in the ISI. If these are our dúngbrain acads, we don't need Sanghis to destroy the education system. What a pathetic bunch!

@RashmiDVS What nonsense. Learn basic history first.

Christianity started approximately 2000 years ago. The Padmanabhaswamy Temple in Kerala is believed to be at least 5000 years old. So, how does Christianity precede Hindu Dharma in Kerala?
