Watch lawyer and writer Gourav Mohanty put forth his views and tackling questions on reservation, feminism and the much burning topic, Sanatan Dharma.

Gourav joins us with his sharp insights, navigating the complexities of India's reservation system and its effects on modern society. We tackle the legacy of Dr. B. R. Ambedkar and the powerful symbolism of equality and justice he represents, while addressing the contentious balance between historical rectification and the aspiration of a merit-based future. It's a discussion that doesn't shy away from the resentment and hopes entwined with affirmative action, as we ponder the parallels with policies abroad and the political will needed to evolve beyond reservation.As we pivot to the nuanced world of gender dynamics, the conversation takes a candid look at the exploitation of laws meant to protect against dowry and domestic violence. We converse on the societal and structural changes imperative for fostering true equality, from shared parenting responsibilities to corporate inclusivity, without underplaying the essential roles men play. The debate on gender superiority gives way to a collective call for unity and cooperation, amidst a backdrop of secularism and cultural representations within the diverse tapestry of Sanatan Dharma.Finally, we delve into the historical context of skin color perceptions, from ancient Indian beauty ideals to the modern influences of media and K-pop. Against the backdrop of human conflict over differences, the episode illuminates personal insecurities and societal pressures, championing the celebration of unique beauty and the embracement of one's true self. We leave our listeners with a resonant message of peace and self-acceptance, a reminder of the beauty in diversity and the strength found in our shared humanity.
