Kancha Ilaiah Questions Modi on Dragging OBC-Dalits into BJP’s Anti-Muslim Rhetoric
In this AIDEM PollTalk, Academic, Political Theorist and Dalit Rights Activist Kancha Ilaiah Shepherd exposes the fallacy in Prime Minister Narendra Modi‘s references to Dalit and Other Backward Caste (OBC) communities to bolster his anti-Muslim rhetoric and asserts that Modi has no business to do that.
He also contends that Modi is clearly rattled by the social justice oriented components in the Congress Manifesto and that the anti Muslim rhetoric points to desperate attempts to overcome this. Watch the full interview here.
Amazing interview! Big fan of Kancha Ilaiah. Building a temple for Ambedkar Lalla, with constitution being preached by a Dalit priest in suit- is the religious revolution we are waiting for. Kudos to Venkitesh and AIDEM team.
