NewsToday Debate Full | Modi vs Macaulay: Historians Debate Colonial Mindset

Описание: This special report features a debate on Prime Minister Narendra Modi's critique of Thomas Macaulay, exploring themes of a colonial mindset, the role of English education, and the 'India versus Bharat' binary. The discussion with panelists Professor Rakesh Sinha, Professor Shruti Kapila, Dr. Suraj Yengde, and Professor Aditya Mukherjee examines whether this is a political debate or a cultural one. Dr. Suraj Yengde states, 'the question is not necessarily Modi versus Macaulay, but Manu versus Macaulay.' The program delves into the complexities of decolonization, the aspirational value of the English language, its impact on social mobility, and its relationship with caste dynamics. Panelists also discuss whether India has created an imitative culture at the expense of its own languages and traditional knowledge systems, or if it has successfully assimilated and repurposed colonial legacies for its own progress.
