REMEMBERING TILKA MANJHI

In today's systematic functioning of the state, the pace at which land is being grabbed by bourgeoisie class, is something which needs a befitting counter. The resistance against illegitimate grab of Jal, Jungle and Jameen needs to increased. For such a spirit, i recall, remember the beacon of advasi revolt, Tilka Manjhi on his 232rd martyrdom.

Salute to his martyrdom!

A year ago, on 8 th  November 2016, Narendra Modi led BJP government took a decision to demonetize the currency of 500 & 1000 notes. The aim remains to thrash & curb the circulation of black money which persists in domestic market. It is also said that demonetization will act against terrorism by preventing the circulation of fake currency note printed “across the border”? This argument hinges crucially on the assumption that the technology employed in printing the new tender will prevent any possibility of faking it.

It is generally believed that very few in India could be compared to him in the knowledge of this special subject . The economic exp

The human race, as we know it, aspires to achieve limitless success, and with pride and respect. Then, suddenly, a question pops in my mind. Is it being done without hurting someone’s dignity? The answer is no. And here’s why. While reasons are numerous, I feel like we need to raise a basic but necessary concern. Our society has been constantly endorsing gender-based violence, in the form of partial treatment, and discrimination, on a large scale, under the respectable banner of ‘culture’ and ‘tradition’. All my life, growing up in India, I have seen and heard about rigid and brutal stands on menstruation.

It openly excludes women from many aspects of socio-cultural life. This has its impact on the psychological state of young girls and women. Some of the cultural connotations related to menstruation are avoiding certain food items,
