*_"A person is not great by birth, but is measured by their virtues and deeds"_* SFI JNU pays homage to Guru Ravidas on his birth anniversary and remembers his struggles to eradicate the caste system. As the horrors of caste violence continue to haunt Dalits, his life and teachings resonate with us to this day in our fight against the Sangh Parivar and their brazen agenda to replace the Indian constitution with the Manusmriti, a text that recognizes the caste system as the cornerstone of Indian society. *SFI JNU*
