Course outline: This particular text deals with the tradition of debate that the Indian culture has been upholding from its ancient times. It focuses on several topics like gender equality, secularism, human rights etc and how they have been evolved over time throughout the ancient, medieval to the modern times. These issues are very much relevant to current generation of students. I would like to aid the students to critically analyze each of these topics with the help of this text.
