St. Xavier's College Ranchi Viral girl | Ek ladki Ki ghatiya soch adivasi ( ST, SC ) ke liye

Ranchi St. Xavier Viral Incident & Ethnocentrism in Education | 🇮🇳 #StandAgainstCasteBias Recently, a video from St. Xavier's College, Ranchi / its students went viral — where a girl reportedly used caste-based slurs and derogatory remarks against ST (Scheduled Tribe) students from Jharkhand. Facebook 🔎 What’s disturbing: Such remarks expose deep-rooted prejudice and ethnocentrism even among young students — revealing how caste and tribal status still trigger discrimination in educational institutions. 🚩 Why this matters for us (and for UPSC aspirants / social citizens): Caste- & tribe-based insults go beyond individual insults — they attack the dignity of entire communities. Such incidents hinder social integration, equal opportunity and trust in institutions reportedly built on merit and equality of opportunity. Understanding these social fissures is vital for civil service aspirants, because India’s unity & social justice depends on tackling discrimination at all levels. 💡 What we must do: Condemn all caste- or tribe-based discrimination — speak up when you see it. Support policies and initiatives that promote social inclusion, equality and dignity for all. Be aware: prejudice can exist even among “educated” segments — mindset change is as important as policy change. ✊ This video is a call for empathy, awareness and reform. Let’s challenge ignorance and build a society where identity — caste, tribe or religion — never becomes a reason for insult or contempt. #Ethnocentrism #Casteism #Jharkhand #SocialJustice #STrights #Equality #UPSC #SumitExplains 🎯 Key Themes / Talking Points (For Your Commentary in Video) Definition of ethnocentrism — what happens when one community considers itself “superior” over another based on caste, tribe, culture. Context of tribal communities in Jharkhand — why ST status deserves respect, given historical marginalization. Role of educational institutions: they are supposed to be spaces of equality — when discrimination happens there, it’s a wake-up call. Broader significance: how caste or tribe-based prejudice affects social cohesion, dignity, opportunity. What constitutional & social justice principles (e.g. reservations, dignity, equality) aim to correct — but mindset must also change.
