Defending the attack on 14-year-old peace activist Malala Yousafzai, Pakistan Taliban stated that she deserved it because she had promoted secularism. Tehrik-e-Taliban Pakistan (TTP) said they would target the child activist again if she survived. Do you think Malala deserves such a fate? Is Pakistan Taliban right in its views?

7:00pm|DOC FILM|Mleccha Sanhaara- India's Kalki Project (Odia with English subtitles/2013/125mins) Dir.Subrat Kumar Sahu As described in Brahmanic scriptures, those who do not adhere to Vedic-Brahmanic principles are Mlechhas - the non-Aryan, impure, dirty barbarians. And, Kalki - the tenth incarnation of Lord Vishnu - would come and annihilate them all one day in order to cleanse the world of all impurities to establish the Vedic-Brahmanic Dharma, the Hindu Dharma! Whether Kalki has incarnated or not, Brahmanic feudal-fascist forces have already let loose the Kalki project, which the Indian State - that calls itself a 'secular democratic Republic' - openly patronizes. In search of the contours of India's Kalki Project, especially that involves organized violence on Dalit communities, the film travels through various villages in Balangir district in Odisha, which has been one of the most prominent laboratories of such terror. Apart from the Lathor carnage that had made headlines globally, the film captures in camera many other untold atrocities on Dalits, and also their resistance.
