This is, in my opinion, the most regressive headline I have read in a while. I never comment on the quality of another house’s media article, but will make an exception this time. (Purely personal feeling, in no way in my capacity as a BQ employee)
In the 86 years since India attained Test status, 290 different men have played test cricket for India. However, only four belong to the Scheduled Castes and Scheduled Tribe.
Instead of about 70, as it should have been per the population proportion.

Fully agree. This is divisive. Some publications sowing seeds of hatred amongst countrymen.

Thank you so much for calling out. The concept of selling news or increase readership by purposely writing regressive stuffs which invoke lot of controversy has to stop.

Digging & deepening the faultlines. Leftist ecosystem copying Lenin method in 1917 : after loss in election, grab power by means of street action and that’s possible if masses agitate. Award wapsi/provoke caste/ minorities are enablers.

This just shows that westerners are right and caste system is prevalant in India. It is more of a social issue and not a political issue.

Absolutely. For some reason, our society is becoming more and more divisive. People are finding new areas to divide the society 😒😒

This is in bad taste. Just few days back the same media house commented about Hima Das’s choice of traditional Assamese Gamusa they called its symbol of insecurity!!

Agree,in poor taste. Reason Y dropped ur nuetrality though bcos a holy cow like cricket was touched. Cricket is the most corrupt sport-match fixing, spot fixing, pitch fixing & yet we support this sport!! Worse things hv been said since 2014 4 which u shd hv dropped ur neutrality

Twitter should introduce a "Dislike" button. Should we bring in Caste angle in everything.
