Manoj Mitta's book explores the struggle for legal reforms aimed at eradicating caste-based injustice, shedding light on groundbreaking reforms and the societal dynamics that necessitated their implementation.

Mitta speaks to The Wire's Sravasti Dasgupta to unpack these legal battles to provide a wider lens to understand the persistent endurance of caste-based inequality and why caste-based violence continues with impunity, despite the constitutional guarantee of equality.
