Decolonising Indian mind a work in progress, says historian Vikram Sampath | ThinkEdu 2022

Apart from the political-economic aspects of colonisation, there is also the dimension of cultural subjugation that makes colonies subliminally believe that their language, epistemology, history and traditional education and belief system are inferior to the colonisers, said historian and author Vikram Sampath on the second day of the tenth #ThinkEdu Conclave on Wednesday, March 9. "How long this will last depends on political and historical factors but reclaiming our identity and decolonisation of the Indian mind is a work in progress. Decoloniality is not a discourse against someone but of looking within your own systems and getting back to your roots," he said, speaking on the topic 'An Epic Idea: Decolonising the Indian Mind' along with Rajeev Gowda, spokesperson of the Indian National Congress. #VikramSampath #India #BJP
