Reading history becomes more interesting when we realise the silences in the narratives we study or listen to. One such less talked about, but important, event is the Police Mutiny of Patna during the last week of March in 1947.
William Tayler, Commissioner of Patna Division till August, 1857, thus, refers to it, “for some years past, this city (Patna) has been considered a very sink of disaffection and intrigue.

He cannot see without distress a Brahman or Kshtriya serving a Sudra. A Brahman may beg or even may die, yet he will never touch a dish from which a Sudra has partaken food.
