  Co-Founder
  Bait for debate is founded by two law students who share a vision of what the Indian society is and what it should and could be. This platform aims to prevent oscillation between two extremes in order to find a pragmatic parity, in turn informing and sensitising the populace. The ultimate aim is to promote tolerance and the capacity to listen to alternative narratives. It is an endeavor to enhance endurance for discussion in a society that loves to argue but hates to listen. Therefore, our production will be spearheaded by voicing of a spectrum of opinions, which once passed through your prism, will ultimately head to a visible and more feasible white light. It is simply a drop in the massive ocean of democracy, a movement that believes in tolerance, accountability, responsibility, and harmonious co-existence. Show less
