Do Attacks On Pawan Singh's Bhojpuri Content Reek Of Classism?

Dear Reader,

The self-appointed guardians of culture and morality went berserk when Bhojpuri artist Pawan Singh was given a ticket to contest the Lok Sabha elections from Asansol, Bengal. 

They decried his content in Bhojpuri for being obscene and misogynistic. Post the outrage, Pawan Singh himself bowed out of the contest.

Sumedha Verma Ojha dissects this appalling hypocrisy of classist gatekeepers around Pawan Singh and Bhojpuri.

Until next time!
