Fiza Pathan No, I totally have to disagree with you here Mangalam Sir. I am a graduate in Sociology & Anthropology not to mention that I even took Sociology & Caste Studies in India as a major subject at my post-graduate B.Ed degree course. So I am well versed with the TRUTH of the Caste System & it's many sordid realities past, present & future; as well as I have read & re-read the Manusmirti for ages & ages. My social issue fiction is based on facts & REAL atrocities committed by people upon the vulnerable, voiceless & defenseless. This is not my imagination running wild but something sadly which STILL happens today in our country, if not in a worse form. My facts are real. My research is real. My work in this field is real. So I will have to disagree with you here, nevertheless I respect your opinion on the matter so will leave it here. But had to mention in public that I do not compromise on my research, facts & ground social work, ever. Not even for my own comfort.

Mangalam Shiva I salute you for the extensive research on the caste atrocities conducted by the upper class people on the vulnerable, defenseless people. I highlighted about Manusmriti guidelines which were misused by persons of upper castes to carry out the atrocities.
Maybe in your research you might have come across the evil roles played by the British in creating divide and rule policies in India to safeguaerd their position.
I agree to disagree with you on this topic. Regards.
