One man is very tall, and the other is short. But surprisingly, the shorter wrestler successfully defeats his opponent. The video was shared with the caption, “The height can give you an advantage, but it is always the skill which will win.” The video has currently more than 24,000 views and 990 likes.

Hijab row: What India can learn from women’s march without hijab in Iran

In women’s protests in Iran after a woman who chose not to wear the hijab died due to custodial torture lie important lessons regarding the hijab row in India. Women took to the streets and took off their hijab on Saturday to protest the police torture of 22-year-old Mahsa Amini for not following the dress regulations.

It divides the world into distinctive societies and employs cultural relativism to argue that each society should be free to follow its norms. The norms, however, come from the dominant sections of society and are internalised as they are enforced over time. So, those who see themselves as pro...
