Legal judgement from Delhi High Court against Audrey Truschke will have good long term impact on stemming defamatory attacks on Indian historians/academics trying to decolonize India, it’s culture & its destiny. People like Truschke seem to believe there is only one way to write

She blocked me after just one tweet questioning her. How brave! She is like "My way or no way". This time she has picked up on the wrong lot. Many Indians overseas, US, UK, Aus, have awakened to the truth & don't believe her. Which is her itch.

‘Decolonize’? You mean rewriting history to suit Hindutva narrative? No thanks!

True. Serves well for people like Truschke. They keep forgetting that feeedom of expression is a joke in India. But that still doesn’t hide the fact that Sampath has copy-pasted from other books. Plagiarism is perhaps too soft a word for what he has done

Is there a way to enforce the judgement on her? If not, I don’t see her stopping with her abuses

What is the angst about? History is a fable agreed upon. It will be significant if one presents an argument to support a hypothesis than going to court about it. In an open source info world, nothing remains hidden, least of all history.

You do agree that
@vikramsampath
did plagiarize though? Hopefully not stuck in Hindutva bubble.
