Today we discussed the historical basis of the idea of "Bharat Mata" and how the RSS has attempted to reduce women to just their "wombs". Our participants brought interesting questions of whether the masses care about the historical "truth" and the contemporary context.
Bhagat Singh Ambedkar Study Circle thanks everyone who participated today and hopes to see more people in the coming weeks.
