Denying Ajit’s right to love through violence displays a collective act of manhood. By proposing a non-violent solution, Himanshu risks himself from other Jatt boys as he does not agree with their backward views. Maybe Himanshu alone can’t influence the situation because he does not know how to respond to their ideals of systemic discrimination but believes a resolution can be achieved through conversation. This challenges upper caste power and violence through progressive dialogue.
