Kashf invites 25–30 curious undergraduate students to join a unique, immersive reading group that will explore how to approach texts in Social Sciences—not just what they say, but how they mean.

Led by Dr. Krishnaswamy Dara (Jamia Millia Islamia), this 6-session online programme offers guided, close readings of key political writings by Ambedkar and Gandhi—texts that demand care, context, and critical attention.

What You’ll Learn:

* Read for argument, structure, exclusions, and context

* Engage with foundational questions on caste, religion & violence

* Build slow, reflective reading practices

No certificates, no incentives—just the joy of learning.

We believe reading is not a means to an end, but an end in itself.

Who Can Apply?

* Undergraduate students—i.e., those currently pursuing a Bachelor's degree (especially B.A. students).

* Especially from non-metropolitan regions & underserved institutions

* No prior training required—just deep curiosity

* Women are especially encouraged to apply
