💨 Abstract

Mumbai, India's most open city, is revealed to have deep-seated prejudices and discrimination. Neighborhoods are divided by entrenched notions of belonging, "purity," and caste-social hierarchy. The Ghatkopar incident highlights food-based discrimination, as a Marathi resident was verbally abused by his Gujarati neighbor for consuming non-vegetarian food.
