Topic of the Week for Discussion: 7Th to 13 Th Nov Topic of the week for discussion: 7th to 13 th Nov . 2013 Topic: The Irony of the Iron Man of India Sardar Vallabhbhai Jhaverbhai Patel was an Indian barrister and statesman, one of the leaders of the Indian National Congress and one of the founding fathers of the Republic of India. He is known to be a social leader of India who played an unparalleled role in the country's struggle for independence and guided its integration into a united, independent nation. • Patel supported Gandhi's Non-cooperation movement and toured the state to recruit more than 300,000 members and raise over Rs. 15 lakh in funds. Helping organise bonfires of British goods in Ahmedabad, Patel threw in all his English-style clothes. • Patel also supported Gandhi's controversial suspension of resistance in wake of the Chauri Chaura incident. • He worked extensively in the following years in Gujarat against alcoholism, untouchability and caste discrimination, as well as for the empowerment of women . • When Gandhi was in prison, Sardar Patel was asked by Members of Congress to lead the satyagraha in Nagpur in 1923 against a law banning the raising of the Indian flag. • As Gandhi embarked on the Dandi Salt March, Patel was arrested in the village of Ras and tried without witnesses, with no lawyer or pressman Topic allowed to attend. Introduction • After the signing of the Gandhi-Irwin Pact , Patel was elected Congress president for its 1931 session in Karachi— the Congress ratified the pact, committed itself to the defence of fundamental rights and human freedoms, and a vision of a secular nation, minimum wage and the abolition of untouchability and serfdom . • As the first Home Minister and Deputy Prime Minister of India, Patel organized relief for refugees in Punjab and Delhi, and led efforts to restore peace across the nation. • Using frank diplomacy , backed with the option and use of military force, Patel's leadership persuaded almost every princely state. Often known as the "Iron Man of India ”, he is also remembered as the "Patron Saint" of India's civil servants for establishing modern all-India services. Critics View: During his lifetime, Vallabhbhai Patel received criticism of an alleged bias against Muslims during the time of partition. He was criticised by prominent Muslims such as Maulana Azad as well as Hindu nationalists for readily plumping for partition. Patel was criticised by supporters of Subhas Chandra Bose for acting coercively to put down politicians not supportive of Gandhi. Socialist politicians such as Jaya Prakash Narayan and Asoka Mehta criticised him for his personal proximity to Indian industrialists such as the Birla and Sarabhai families. Some historians have criticised Patel's actions on the integration of princely states as undermining the right of self-determination for those states. Supporters Counter view: However, Patel is credited for being almost single-handedly responsible for unifying India on the eve of independence. Till date, he is regarded as the most successful Home Minister . He won the admiration of many Indians for speaking frankly on the issues of Hindu-Muslim relations and not shying from using military force to integrate India. Patel had extreme dislike for the RSS. He actually banned it in 1948. His skills of leadership and practical judgement were hailed by British statesmen —his opponents in the freedom struggle—such as Lord Wavell, Cripps, Pethick-Lawrence and Mountbatten. Some historians and admirers of Patel such as Rajendra Prasad and industrialist J.R.D. Tata have expressed opinions that Patel would have made a better prime minister for India than Nehru. Nehru's critics and Patel's admirers cite Nehru's belated embrace of Patel's advice regarding the UN and Kashmir and the integration of Goa by military action and Nehru's ignoring of Patel's advice on China. Prime Minister Manmohan Singh and Gujarat Chief Minister Narendra Modi shared the stage in Ahmedabad at a function to commemorate India's iron man. At the inauguration of 182-metre monument of Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, the BJP and Congress exchanged blows over the legacy of the India's first home minister The fight over Patel is not about his legacy but bragging rights. Manmohan Singh touts Sardar Patel’s iron-clad secularism but then cannot resist saying “I am even happier that Sardar Patel was associated with the same political party of which I am a member.” It’s the fate of all historical giants to be devoured piecemeal by squabbling generations who will selectively carve out the parts that are to their greatest advantage. The inconvenient truth is the Congress never gave Patel his due because they were too busy gilding the Nehru-Gandhi family tree. What Modi has astutely tapped into is the general public’s weariness with the glorification of the Gandhis at the expense of pretty much every other leader, not just Patel. However it’s not that the BJP has that much to brag about in this regard. Modi boasted that the newspaper ads across the country for Sardar Patel is “the Gujarat effect” but in its tenure between 1999 and 2004, the NDA issued no advertisements for Sardar Patel for two years in a row. As humans we always want to walk in the footsteps of giants whether we fit in them or not. It’s not a uniquely Indian problem. Politicians routinely take a self- serving selective slice of leaders’ lives and thoughts and make that the whole truth so they can claim them for their own aggrandizement. They freeze them into statues, solid and immovable, the larger the better. We forget our leaders are not metal giants with marigold garlands. In life they were very human. They evolved, changed their opinions, sometimes even contradicted themselves. A 600 foot statue built at the cost of Rs 2500 crore to commemorate a man who was 5’5”. There is delicious irony in that. Perhaps India’s original Iron Man would be amused.

  • Strengthening of Panchayats in India: Comparing Devolution Across States
    Strengthening of Panchayats in India: Comparing Devolution across States Empirical Assessment - 2012-13 April 2013 Sponsored by Ministry of Panchayati Raj Government of India The Indian Institute of Public Administration New Delhi Strengthening of Panchayats in India: Comparing Devolution across States Empirical Assessment - 2012-13 V N Alok The Indian Institute of Public Administration New Delhi Foreword It is the twentieth anniversary of the 73rd Amendment of the Constitution, whereby Panchayats were given constitu- tional status.While the mandatory provisions of the Constitution regarding elections and reservations are adhered to in all States, the devolution of powers and resources to Panchayats from the States has been highly uneven across States. To motivate States to devolve powers and responsibilities to Panchayats and put in place an accountability frame- work, the Ministry of Panchayati Raj, Government of India, ranks States and provides incentives under the Panchayat Empowerment and Accountability Scheme (PEAIS) in accordance with their performance as measured on a Devo- lution Index computed by an independent institution. The Indian Institute of Public Administration (IIPA) has been conducting the study and constructing the index while continuously refining the same for the last four years. In addition to indices on the cumulative performance of States with respect to the devolution of powers and resources to Panchayats, an index on their incremental performance,i.e. initiatives taken during the year, was introduced in the year 2010-11. Since then, States have been awarded for their recent exemplary initiatives in strengthening Panchayats. The Report on"Strengthening of Panchayats in India: Comparing Devolution across States - Empirical Assessment 2012-13" further refines the Devolution Index by adding two more pillars of performance i.e.

  • Chauri – Chaura Incident (1922)
    Chauri – Chaura Incident (1922) CHAURI – CHAURA INCIDENT (1922) The Congress session held at Ahmedabad in December 1921, decided to launch a civil disobedience movement while reiterating its stand on the non-violent, non-cooperation movement of which Gandhi was the appointed leader. Before Gandhi could launch the civil disobedience movement, a mob at Chauri-Chaura led by Jawahar Yadav, near Gorakpur in the present day Uttar Pradesh, clashed with the police which opened fire. In retaliation, the mob burnt the police station and killed 22 policemen. This compelled Gandhi to call off the civil disobedience movement on 11 February 1922. Even so Gandhi was arrested and sentenced to 6 years imprisonment. The Chauri-Chaura incident convinced Gandhi that the nation was not yet ready for mass disobedience and he prevailed upon the Congress Working Committee in Bardoli on 12 February 1922, to call off the non-cooperation movement. Trade Unionism: Ideological Battleground Ideological differences in the labour movement began to appear within a few years after the birth of the All India Trade Union Congress (AITUC). The three distinct ideological groups in the trade union organization had entirely different views regarding the labour movement. These groups were; (i) Communists led by M. N. Roy and shripad Amrut Dange who wanted AIIUC to be affiliated to such --- international organizations as the League against imperialism and the Pan-Pacific Trade Union Secretariat. The party ideology was supreme to these leaders and they took the unions as instruments for furthering it. (ii) Moderates led by N. M. Joshi and V. V. Giri, who wanted affiliation with the British labour Organization (BLO) and the international Federation of Trade Unions based in Amsterdam.

In 1947, the country commenced its long march to overcome the colonial legacy of economic underdevelopment, gross poverty, near-total illiteracy, wide prevalence of diseases, and stark social inequality and injustice. Achieving independence was only the first stop, the first break—the end of colonial political control: centuries of backwardness was now to be overcome, the promises of the freedom struggle to be fulfilled, and people‘s hopes to be met. The task of nation-building was taken up by the people and leaders with a certain elan and determination and with confidence in their capacity to succeed. When Nehru assumed office as the first Prime Minister of India, there were a myriad of issues lying in front of him, vying for his attention. Nehru knew that it was highly important that he prioritized things. For him, ―First things must come first and the first thing is the security and stability of India.‖ In the words of eminent political scientist W.H Morris- Jones, the imminent task was to ―hold things together, to ensure survival, to get accustomed to the feel of being in the water, to see to it that the vessels keep afloat‖.
