Srijan Foundation, in association with Swarajya, organised a talk on ‘The Right to Education Act and Its Impact on the Indian Education System’ on 15 April.
Arihant Pawariya of Swarajya participated in the event and spoke about the sectarian nature of the Right to Education Act and overall anti-Hindu minorityism in the education system. He discussed how the 93rd Amendment to the Indian Constitution, the National Commission For Minority Educational Institutions Act and minority-only scholarships have promoted sectarianism in the sector.

Introducing ElectionsHQ + 50 Ground Reports Project
The 2024 elections might seem easy to guess, but there are some important questions that shouldn't be missed.
Do freebies still sway voters? Do people prioritise infrastructure when voting? How will Punjab vote?
The answers to these questions provide great insights into where we, as a country, are headed in the years to come.
Swarajya is starting a project with an aim to do 50 solid ground stories and a smart commentary service on WhatsApp, a one-of-a-kind. We'd love your support during this election season.
