As an addendum, I was grateful to also receive offers for the BCL at Oxford (with the Law Faculty/Brasenose College Scholarship) and the LLM at Cambridge, but ultimately decided in favour of Harvard.
Massive thanks to everyone who played a part in this!

This was supposed to be a silly little celebratory post for submitting my paper on protest on private property, but days after I submitted this students all over the country were arrested for trespass. So it feels more like a call for resistance, not celebration now.

It’s crazy how the debates surrounding the Hindu Code Bill in the 1950s are echoed in the marital rape discussion today. Public discourse in India hasn’t evolved since the 1950s.
