She has published several collections of political essays on issues ranging from large dams and nuclear weapons to the corporatisation and privatisation of India's New Economy. In this lecture she speaks about the practice of caste in India and how it received support from many of those who lead India's struggle for Independence including Mahatma Gandhi.
