What a disgrace, that politicians are being awarded the Bharat Ratna? What for? Demolishing the Babri Masjid? Let me also remind most of the andh-bhakts out there, who also happen to be the bahujan foot-soldier of the BJP - the Hindu Mahasabha ecosystem wants to maintain caste hegemony, just the way it was, for about two thousand years ago. You are still sub-human in the eyes of these fascist Brahmins - if that does not go into your head, none of the other rational thoughts will. There's no glory for you in bringing back the golden age of India, it was always the culture of the upper castes.

The golden age of hindu rashtra was built by the sweat and blood and Slave labour of Dalits and other lower castes for nothing in return, not even recognition.

Their life was so cheap that a Brahmin could kill a dalit for no reason without repercussions. Even if a Brahmin committed mass murder the worst punishment they could get is to get their ponytail shaved.

Women also had no existence without men because of Sati.

This dichotomy existed at least since the Mauryan Dynasty as far as Archeological evidence goes that's around 327 BC
