A Restatement

I am grateful for the many comments my colleagues have offered on my analysis of the Class Conflict in the Indian Society. It is customary to acknowledge such comments by means of a rejoinder. But, if I attempt to do it point by point, it will take far too much space. Moreover, it may take the argument away from the main focus of my analysis because, though a number of points raised in the comments deserve further discussion, in my opinion, they are not germane to the central theme of my Lecture.
