Raveena also wrote that work politics isn't exclusive to outsiders, and can happen to anybody. What matters is whether they are fighting it back. "It can happen to someone born within,an “insider” as I can hear insider/outsider words,some anchors blaring away.But you fight back.The more they tried to bury me,the harder I fought back. Dirty politics happen everywhere. But sometimes one roots for good to win,and Evil to lose," her tweet read.
