Egalitarianism is a joke in a country that is patriarchal and uses a caste system to determine superiority over each other.

You can't get forwards motion from a horse that walks backwards. India is decades behind when it comes to equality and secularism. the people don't have access to the climate and education required to foster it. This is due to the sheer number of ignoramuses that are still present and pandered to for votes. Lopsided is a good word for it.

You mean caste system that reserves more than 50% of seats in education, govt jobs and even for political leaders for lower caste people. And the rest 50% if for merit students only meaning if a lower caste person gets good marks he will not be selected upon the reservation. Or patriarchal in the sense that a stranger women can accuse you of rape and without any evidence provided and without any prior investigation the cops can come and arrest you ? And the only bail possible is magistrate one which itself will take 3-4 days, so if the guy is arrested on Friday with no evidence and just based of hearsay then he will have to stay locked up for weeks before he gets bail. Until a few years ago adultery was a crime in India but it is a crime only for men. ACC to constitution Women were angel being who can do no wrong. Even today india doesn't recognise male rape victims. The only accepted definition of rape in india is forceful penetration.

I'm glad the supreme court is issues new laws to help citizens doesn't mean they aren't extremely sexists towards men.
