Addendum to thread https://twitter.com/Shrimaan/status/1045238507646504960
Had the privilege of debating with Tejas Harad, an eminent journalist working with @epw_in , @ThePrintIndia, @newslaundry etc. He has written this hagiography of Phule in Newslaundry - https://www.newslaundry.com/2018/11/28/remembering-jotiba-phule-mahatma-fought-against-brahmin-hegemony
Regrettably, after the debate, Mr Harad has deleted his account! But you can read my side of the debate in this thread. Hope Mr Harad will continue to engage, and be open to changing his views https://twitter.com/BharatDharma/status/1068134494174146565
