Religious par excellence but against hate speech: An Interview with Pashaura Singh

 



Religious par excellence but against Hate Speech

 An Interview with Pashaura Singh

For MastFM103 & BarahMah Lhore


I met Professor Pashaura Singh at International Layalpur History Conference 2024 at Faisalabad where I too presented my paper Anti-colonial Struggle in subcontinent: What went wrong?  After the conference, he stayed for 3 days in Lhore and with the help of Khola Cheema I interviewed him.

After listening his (Professor Pashaura Singh) talk/interview one may realise that the pertinent issue is not the religion itself but issue is hate speech, respect for human rights and space for the dialogue. If these things are missing even ideology becomes a dogma. Examples of various left groups is good to understand the phenomenon.
