Love as a Radical Act — My Perspective on Relationships and Caste

Love Should Be A Radical Tool Of Rebellion Against Caste - BehanBox

When I speak about love in the context of caste, I am not speaking about romance as a private emotion. I’m talking about how love intersects with power, caste hierarchies, dignity, and freedom — and how it can be a radical act of rebellion against entrenched social norms.

This reflection is based on my essay “Love Should Be a Radical Tool of Rebellion Against Caste” published on BehanBox, where I explore how caste and power shape intimate relationships for young women from marginalised communities.
