Our article analysing how ragging is internalized in the very culture and In order to address them in the Indian educational institutions we need to address the issues that are deep rooted in our Indian society.

[The Wire @thewire_in]

Every culture expects the young to appreciate and accord due respect to their elders. However, in India, this sentiment runs amok, write @SSarveswar and Ram R. Bhupathiraju.

Democracy Survives Only When Every Language is Respected

Bangla, as a language, has a long history of being intertwined with popular movements across many parts of eastern and north-eastern India.

The Attack on the Land of the University of Hyderabad Is an Attack on India

The campus has encouraged freedom of thought and is a home for marginalised students. The fight to save it is a fight to save this country.

Our new pitch with Ranvir da and @mpterencesamuel

[The Wire @thewire_in]

Why We Need to Speak of Caste in #Bengal

Dr B.R. Ambedkar and Rabindranath Tagore never met. But their ideals overlap. There is no better place than Visva-Bharati to reignite discussions on caste.

A society influenced by modernity and science should be able to ask critical questions. Yet, religious leaders influence every sphere of life in India.

My pitch, give it a read.

[Scroll.in @scroll_in]

Though we claim that we want women to be independent, through the stories and mythologies of mother goddess worship, we are taming the goddess.

Anthropologist @SSarveswar on how worshipping of mother goddesses in India has changed over the years.

https://t.co/rSmpsPbkix

[Sipoy Sarveswar @SSarveswar]

My new pitch analyses how mythologies and iconographies pertaining to the mother goddess's worship are altered or refurbished to suit the political and social ideology. Thanks to the @scroll_in team for this opportunity.

[Scroll.in @scroll_in]

In an era in which our political leaders privilege homogeneity, it is important to preserve the diversity of our mythologies and ensure that our mother goddesses are allowed to stay strong and furious, rather than attempting to tame them through stories and iconographies.

My new piece on connecting the right-wing politics in India and concept of evil eye published in @thewire_in

[The Wire @thewire_in]

Many angles have been investigated to explain the BJP's electoral success in the past decade. One aspect yet to be examined is the crucial role that the daily #culture of the masses plays in helping certain political ideologies thrive, writes @SSarveswar.

My students (Naina, Ankita and Riya) and I, tried to analyse what makes Santiniketan so attractive apart from the Tagore's influence. We used Anthropology of Space to examine this question. Your comments are welcome.
