| 520 ## - SUMMARY, ETC. | |
| Summary, etc. | The book Seeking Begumpura: The Social Vision of Anticaste Intellectuals by Gail Omvedt explores the utopian visions of anticaste thinkers over five centuries, including Ravidas, Kabir, Phule, Periyar, and Ambedkar. The title is inspired by the 15th-century bhakti poet Ravidas, who envisioned "Begumpura," a city free from caste and class oppression, where equality and happiness prevail. Omvedt contrasts these visions with Gandhian, Nehruvian, and Hindutva ideologies, emphasizing the socio-political struggle against caste hierarchies in India.<br/><br/> |
