I don't wear the thread and none of my friends (no matter which group they come from) do. So I am not sure what is your point? Once again this is some stupid journo not doing research and spreading FUD. If Westerners want to be moralizing the first thing they should start with is being sound about their research. Even actual issues will be dismissed in future by larger population in India if this is the kind of work that is presented as truth.

Not sure what you are trying to say?

> Deepak mentions that 15% of those classified as SC/STs also wear the sacred thread

My point is that this is incorrect.
