Remembering Gita Pathak and an Effort called MWMC: A Tribute by Hamara Manch 

Gita Pathak passed away on 15th May 2025.  It is not easy to write about a friend in the past tense as it forces one to acknowledge the finality of the loss. Many of us individually and in groups have spent countless hours laughing, chatting, despairing, and raging, over good food and beverages with Gita. Those are precious memories and probably would find space in another piece. In this short note we will remember the journey for a short and yet extremely significant period which we traveled together through a unique effort called MWMC and subsequently Hamara Manch. This tribute is to remind ourselves that our small and very inadequate effort to forge dignity and rights for all within the campus is the reason we were able to garner so many remarkable humsafar (co-travelers). And in turn the collective effort got a new lease of life and was strengthened by the invaluable contributions of these individuals.
