Drawing from candid conversations with eminent scholars, youth leaders, social activists, and academicians across India, the book dives deep into the challenges, aspirations, and awakenings of the OBC community. It traces historical injustices, evaluates contemporary policies, and highlights the emerging voices that are shaping a more inclusive democratic discourse. This volume features critical contributions from renowned experts including Prof. Sudha Pai, Prof. Ajay Gudhavarthy, Prof. Surinder S. Jodhka, Prof. Kapil Kumar, Prof. Shweta Singh, Prof. Badri Narayana, Prof. Chandraiha Gopani, and many more. Their academic depth, combined with grassroots insights from forums such as the BC Intellectual Forum, BICCI, and youth movements, enrich the book with both analytical rigor and emotional resonance. Whether you are a student of social sciences, a policy maker, an activist, or a concerned citizen, “The OBCs Uprising” offers a comprehensive, honest, and transformative lens into one of the most urgent social dialogues of our time.
