Diff between an 'expert' and a 'researcher'.
Facts are sacred for the researcher, while experts rein on hollow words.

Do Christians not eat food as if they are being questioned on their right to protest? Who are you to judge on the protests? If you are sensitive to the cause, address the issue. Tell the govt to wake up from the deep slumber.
Before 1936 Dalits were believed to threaten the sanctity of all gods in all temples, today we have a single shrine where another group marginalized in history must work around tradition and its claims of immutability.

He further destabilised the freedom movement by pushing his Hindutva ideology, which deepened the communal divide at a time when a united front against colonial rule was needed. Post independence, Savarkar was also implicated in Mahatma Gandhi’s murder. 2/2
