The two most flogged narratives used to besmirch Hindus are caste and Sati. Abhijit Chavda joins Sanjay Dixit to debun the narrative built around Sati as an integral feature of Hinduism, and also deconstructs Raja Rammohan Roy as a collaborator of the British in helping build that narrative. Chavda tells Sanjay Dixit how an outlier event was grafted onto Hindus as a mainstream practice.
