What is the first thing that comes to your mind when you think of a utopian world? People have different views on utopia. Some would think of an infinite flow of money, others may think about people of different faiths living together in harmony, equality, no riots, no terrorism, no wars...
But what else come to my mind is a world where I am not stigmatised based on the community I belong to. When I was born, I was given a first name and a surname, like any other person on earth. But people have this uncanny tendency to judge one by surname.
Want to get a house on rent? Mention your caste first. This is actually a prevalent predicament in many places. I remember how vexed my uncle was when finding a house on lease was an uphill battle for him because almost everyone he approached would not let it out to “lower” castes, not even for extra cash.
