Mrigsays…

I spurn to be identified with any surname. I have a name which is enough for my identity. I don’t wish to live with tags. 🙂
I reject this whole idea of surnames because i believe that surnames act as a tool for class division and stereotype thinking in our so-called equal society. He is a Gupta, so he is a penny-pincher. He is a Thakur, so he can break bones. He is a Punjabi, he believes in show off. He is an ansari, he eats beef. He/she is a singh or kaur, they’l act crazy at 1200hours. Like..seriously?? :/
Isn’t this how most of the people think?
I welcome your suggestions, comments and advice about this general perspective of mine.

    • This system was created for division of work/labour in ancient times. But like other things , we, the Indians lose context and move/ follow like herd.
