  1. Pankaj Mansion –

    A vital contribution to the field. Viswanath’s analysis is insightful and thought-provoking, though sometimes repetitive.

  2. Shivansh Soni –

    The book explains the problems so well, but it is hard to digest the cruelty of the time.

  3. Subham Kumar Nahak –

    Eye-opening account of the Pariah system. Viswanath’s research is impeccable. Highly recommend for those interested in Indian history.

  4. Midhunprasad M –

    Essential reading for understanding modern India. The book does an excellent job of connecting past injustices to present-day realities.

  5. Shreshtha Roy –

    A well-researched book that highlights the historical oppression faced by Dalits. However, the writing could be more engaging.

  6. Kodavali Samarpana Rao –

    A thorough but disheartening exploration. It is a little slow but very informative.

  7. Aastha Sinha –

    Important but depressing. It’s necessary to understand the past, but the book is a bit dry and academic.

  8. Shambhu –

    This book really opened my eyes. It is a great academic resource, though a little hard to follow at times.

  9. Tushar Goyal –

    A detailed look at a difficult subject. Viswanath sheds light on a history that’s often overlooked. It’s a dense read, but worth the effort.
