The loss of life of a Nepalese student studying in an Indian University has triggered a lot of discussion around casual discrimination. Labeling a North-East Indian ‘Chinki’, a south Indian ‘Madrasi’ or a Nepalese ‘Kancha’ may sound harmless but can have a deeper intrinsic meaning to outcast someone.
Othering not only leads to bias and discrimination but also doesn’t help society as a whole to unbreak the chain of ancient thinking.
Can we not be kind and look beyond a person’s features and accent? How about labeling people as kind, hardworking, honest and knowledgeable instead?
