BRIEF HISTORY BEFORE INDEPENDENCE The present Tamil Nadu is the residuary part of the then erstwhile Madras Presidency. The said Presidency comprised of the present Tamil Nadu, some parts of the present States of Orissa, Kerala, Karnataka and present Andhra Pradesh excluding the former native State of Nizam. Besides Madras Presidency, there were two other Presidencies, viz., Presidency of Bombay and Presidency of Calcutta. Each of the presidency was in charge of a Governor. To start with, the presidencies were Independent of each other, but the Regulating Act, 1773 termed the Governor of Bengal as Governor General of Bengal and made him the supreme head of all the Presidencies. At the same time, the legislative power in the Presidencies was also recognised. This state of thing, was however, discontinued by the Charter Act of 1833 which concentrated all the legislative power in the Governor-General in-Council and deprived the local Governments (Presidencies) of their power of the Independent Legislation. The Indian Councils Act of 1861 restored the Legislative Power taken away by the Charter Act of 1833. The Legislature of the Madras Presidency was given the power to make laws for the “peace and good Government”. The Provincial Legislative Council was constituted by the addition to the Governor’s Executive Council of 4 to 8 ad hoc members of whom at least half were to be non-officials nominated by the Governor for a period of two years and the Advocate-General. The Provincial Legislative Council could not interfere with the laws passed by the Central Legislature. All Bills passed by Provincial Councils required the assent of the Governor General and even after that, they could be disallowed by the queen to whom they had to be referred. The Indian Councils Act of 1909 enlarged the Legislative Council of the province from 20 to 50. The Legislative Council for the first time, was elected by an indirect election resulting in non-official majority in the House for the first time. 2 3 The first conscious advance in the direction of Responsible Government Although the Government of India Act was passed in 1935, only that part was the reform of 1919 known as Montague/Chemsford Reforms. relating to the Provinces came into operation in 1937. The Congress Party in The Madras Legislative Council was set up in 1921 under the Government the Legislature formed the Government in July 1937. The Ministry, however, of India Act, 1919. The Term of the Council was for a period of three years. It resigned in October 1939 due to the proclamation of emergency on account of consisted of 132 Members of which 34 were nominated by the Governor and World War II and the Legislature ceased to function. After the war was over, the rest were elected. It met for the first time on the 9th January 1921 at Fort St. General Elections were held in March 1946 under the Government of India George, Madras. The Council was inaugurated by the Duke of Cannaught, a Act, 1935. The first Session of the Second Legislative Assembly under the paternal uncle of the King of England, on the 12th January 1921 on the request Government of India Act, 1935 constituted in 1946, met on the 24th May 1946.

  • Growing Cleavages in India? Evidence from the Changing Structure of Electorates, 1962-2014
    WID.world WORKING PAPER N° 2019/05 Growing Cleavages in India? Evidence from the Changing Structure of Electorates, 1962-2014 Abhijit Banerjee Amory Gethin Thomas Piketty March 2019 Growing Cleavages in India? Evidence from the Changing Structure of Electorates, 1962-2014 Abhijit Banerjee, Amory Gethin, Thomas Piketty* January 16, 2019 Abstract This paper combines surveys, election results and social spending data to document the long-run evolution of political cleavages in India. From a dominant- party system featuring the Indian National Congress as the main actor of the mediation of political conflicts, Indian politics have gradually come to include a number of smaller regionalist parties and, more recently, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). These changes coincide with the rise of religious divisions and the persistence of strong caste-based cleavages, while education, income and occupation play little role (controlling for caste) in determining voters’ choices. We find no evidence that India’s new party system has been associated with changes in social policy. While BJP-led states are generally characterized by a smaller social sector, switching to a party representing upper castes or upper classes has no significant effect on social spending. We interpret this as evidence that voters seem to be less driven by straightforward economic interests than by sectarian interests and cultural priorities. In India, as in many Western democracies, political conflicts have become increasingly focused on identity and religious-ethnic conflicts

  • I. Profile of Pudukkottai District
    I. PROFILE OF PUDUKKOTTAI DISTRICT 1. INTRODUCTION Pudukkottai has a familiar Historical background and it was formerly a Princely State with the title of “SAMASTHANAM” ruled by the “H.H.The Rajah’s of THONDAIMANS”. The present Pudukkottai district is encompassing the entire Princely State of Pudukkottai and parts of Tiruchirappalli and Thanjavur districts. Pudukkottai district came into existence on 14.1.1974. The erstwhile “Pudukkottai State” has been justly famous for its efficient and stable administration through the years with its seasoned administrative system, operating with well understood concepts of hierarchy line of command and discreet adherences to principles and procedures. Really this credit goes to the initial author and as well as the founder of the system of “District Office Manual”, by “Sir Alexander Loftus Tottenham”, the Agent of the British Emperor/ Administrator of erstwhile “Pudukkottai State” for his aim of trim and efficient administration. Pudukkotai District is bounded on the North East and East by Thanjavur District, on the South East by Bay of Bengal, on the South West by Ramanathapuram and Sivaganga districts and on the West and North East by Thiruchirapalli District. 1 2. DISASTER MANAGEMENT PLAN The main objective of Disaster Management Plan is to assess the vulnerability of district to various major hazards so that mitigate steps can be taken to contain the damages before and during disaster and to provide relief and take reconstruction measures at the shortest possible time effectively. The District Disaster Management Plan is also a purposeful document that assigns responsibility to the officials of Government Departments, Social Organisations and Individuals for carrying out specific and effective actions at projected times and places in an emergency manner that exceeds the capability or routine responsibility of an one agency, e.g 2 the departments of Revenue, Police, Fire Services, Fisheries, Highways, PWD, South Vellar Division and Health etc.

The objective of this Review is to give a complex, yet concise summary of business transacted by the Eighth Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly from 16th January 1985 to 30th January 1988. In addition to the business actually transacted in the House, a summary of work done by the Legislature Committees, the Tamil Nadu Branch of Commonwealth Parliamentary Association, a brief report on the Presidential Election, one Biennial Election to the Council of States by the Members of the Tamil Nadu Legislative Assembly and one bye-election to the Tamil Nadu Legislative Council have also been included in this Review. References to the Rules of Procedure are also given at the beginning of each Chapter wherever necessary. A Few photographs taken in connection with the important occasions such as Governor's Address, Presentation of Budget and visits of Parliamentary delegations from others countries have also been added. This publication, it is hoped, will be found useful as book of reference to the Secretariat and of interest by all those desiring to study the work turned out during the Eighth Legislative Assembly of Tamil Nadu. Any suggestions to make this publication more useful will be thankfully received and incorporated in the next Review.
