As everybody knows, we are conducting an inquiry into Australia’s trade relations with India. I was glad to see this morning that even the Australian has caught up with the fact that India is an emerging nation and that it is important that we work out where we are going with it. In particular, the inquiry is going to report on India’s significance to Australia in terms of expanded trade and investment opportunities, the prospects for continued economic reform and trade liberalisation in India and the implication of this for Australian trade and investment, and the nature of India’s growing economic engagement with Asia and the Indian Ocean region. In the course of the inquiry, the subcommittee is conducting a number of public hearings around Australia, speaking with government, business and various representative groups, as well as professional analysts of the south Asian region and individuals with experience of India’s economic environment. The committee expects to table its report on this reference early next year. FOREIGN AFFAIRS, DEFENCE AND TRADE Monday, 21 July 1997 JOINT FADT 71 KENNAN, Mr James Harley, QC, Chair, Australia India Council, Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, Canberra, Australian Capital Territory CHAIR—Welcome, Mr Kennan. I advise you that the proceedings today are legal proceedings of the parliament and warrant the same respect which proceedings of respective houses of parliament demand. Although the subcommittee does not require you to give evidence on oath, you should be aware that this does not alter the importance of the occasion. The deliberate misleading of the subcommittee may be regarded as a contempt of parliament. The subcommittee prefers all evidence to be given in public, but should you at any stage wish to give any evidence in private, you may ask to do so and the subcommittee will give consideration to your request. I invite you to make an opening statement before we proceed to have some dialogue. Mr Kennan—Thank you, Mr Chairman. I have been asked to comment on, in addition to the Australia India Council, my views about trade and investment with India as a result of some of my private business activities in India. I want to cover two broad headings: firstly, the activities of the Australia India Council and, secondly, my views about opportunities for trade and investment between Australia and India. I think that Mr John Powys, the Director of the Secretariat of the Australia India Council, has already given evidence to the committee, and the committee is well aware of the background to the council. As the committee knows, there was a major promotion— the new horizons program promotion—by the Australian government in India last year. I think some six or seven government ministers attended in the course of that promotion and a lot of Australia India Council funding went into it. The Minister for Trade and Deputy Prime Minister launched a consultants report last week on that promotion, indicating that it had been thought to be successful by those Australian firms that participated in it. The Australia India Council was there for much of the two weeks of the promotion. It is certainly my observation that Australia’s profile was lifted very considerably during that promotion. India is no longer necessarily an easy country to get a profile into, because in recent years Delhi has become quite a hot spot for international promotions. For instance, the Canadians were there about a year ago; they came with their Prime Minister and the premier of each of the six or seven provinces. There are a lot of road shows through Delhi by various countries, and I think the Australians did well. In the course of this year the Australia India Council will shift to a number of key projects in addition to some ongoing projects, which include academic exchanges, journalist exchanges and so on. We are trying to get as much as we can for the dollars spent by seeking to involve key stakeholders on each side and by trying to concentrate our funding on seed funding that draws in other funding or support which then creates ongoing collaborations after we no longer fund a project. Through that we are trying to set FOREIGN AFFAIRS, DEFENCE AND TRADE FADT 72 JOINT Monday, 21 July 1997 up institutional links as well as one-off exchanges which have tended to characterise the activities of a number of bilateral councils in the past. We have a number of these that are currently under way. One relates to alternative dispute resolution. Whatever problems there might have been in the Australian courts, I think India has 25 million cases awaiting trial and 8,000 courts, and no formal system of alternative dispute resolution. We have made a link with the secretary of the Indian Council of Arbitration who is housed in FICCI, one of the major chambers of commerce. He has been out here and has undergone training with Leader—one of the alternative dispute resolution training bodies in Australia. Later in the year we hope to send trainers over there to set up the protocols for alternative dispute resolution and training systems in India which will then receive the support of FICCI, which has more than 25 regional offices throughout India. We will seed fund that initially, and after that it is a matter for the Indians to take up. In creating these institutional links, we have also sought to involve some high profile Australians. Sir Gustav Nossal is one. He has had a longstanding interest in India as an immunologist. He has retired from the Walter and Eliza Hall Institute but is still the President of the Australian Academy of Science. He did a round table in January in Delhi on health and biotechnology for us. We paid for other people to come from other parts of India to have

    © 2017 Irina Spector-Marks CIRCUITS OF IMPERIAL CITIZENSHIP: INDIAN PRINT CULTURE AND THE POLITICS OF RACE, 1890-1914 BY IRINA SPECTOR-MARKS DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in History in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2017 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Professor Antoinette Burton, Chair Associate Professor Teresa Barnes Associate Professor James Brennan Professor Isabel Hofmeyr, University of Witswatersand Associate Professor Dana Rabin Abstract At the turn of the twentieth century, Indian immigrants throughout the British empire faced a rise in discriminatory legislation. They responded by asserting that as imperial citizens, Indians should be treated equally with white British subjects. Although imperial citizenship had no fixed legal meaning, Indian activists invoked imperial citizenship as a legal status and as an identity that carried racial and civilizational overtones. Through a close reading of iterations of imperial citizenship across a wide range of print culture sources, I show how imperial citizenship, although ostensibly race-blind, was an implicitly racialized discourse. Based on research from archives in Ottawa, Vancouver, Durban, Pietermaritzburg, Pretoria, and London, I map how the discourse of imperial citizenship circulated across the empire in a transnational print sphere of periodicals, pamphlets, and petitions. By focusing on the work of activists in Canada and South Africa, I explore the ways in which local political and racial contexts precluded the potential for material forms of transnational collaboration. My dissertation nuances the “transnational turn” in the humanities by emphasizing the role of local factors in shaping larger global politics.

    JUMPING SHIP – SKIRTING EMPIRE: Indians, Aborigines and Australians across the Indian Ocean Transforming Cultures eJournal, Vol. 3 No 1, February 2008 http://epress.lib.uts.edu.au/journals/TfC Heather Goodall,1 Devleena Ghosh & Lindi R. Todd Abstract Relationships between South Asians and Australians during the colonial period have been little investigated. Closer attention to the dramatically expanded sea trade after 1850 and the relatively uncontrolled movement of people, ideas and goods which occurred on them, despite claims of imperial regulation, suggests that significant numbers of Indians among others entered Australia outside the immigration restrictions of empire or settlers. Given that many of them entered or remained in Australia without official sanction, their histories will not be found in the official immigration records, but rather in the memories and momentos of the communities into which they might have moved. Exploring the histories of Aboriginal communities and of maritime working class networks does allow a previously unwritten history to emerge: not only of Indian individuals with complex personal and working histories, but often as activists in the campaigns against racial discrimination and in support of decolonization. Yet their heritage has been obscured. The polarizing conflict between settlers and Aboriginal Australians has invariably meant that Aboriginal people of mixed background had to ‘choose sides’ to be counted simplistically as either ‘black’ or ‘white’. The need to defend the community’s rights has meant that Aboriginal people had to be unequivocal in their identification and this simplification has had to take precedence over the assertion of a diverse heritage. In working class histories, the mobilization of selective ethnic stereotyping has meant that the history of Indians as workers, as unionists and as activists has been distorted and ignored.

    India Update 2018 – Voices of difference: minority positions in a majoritarian world Bios and abstracts Day one Thursday 15 November Welcome remarks H.E. Dr A M Gondane, High Commissioner, High Commission of India H.E. High Commissioner Dr A M Gondane joined the Indian Foreign Service in 1985. He worked in various capacities in the Indian Embassies and Consulates including in Damascus, Baghdad, Vienna, Ankara and New York. He was High Commissioner of India to Papua New Guinea, Solomon Islands and Vanuatu. Keynote address Professor G.N. Devy Chair: Professor Nick Evans, ANU Title: Memory, language and aphasia: the future of human speech Abstract: The lecture will present a historical overview of language diversity in India and detail the process of marginalisation of linguistic communities through the colonial era as well as in post-independence India. It will present how the de- notified and nomadic communities—wrongfully branded as ‘criminal tribes' during the nineteenth century—have been struggling to preserve their cultural heritage in challenging circumstances, how the Adivasis have slid down in the matrix of access to higher education and how the indigenous language communities have lost their linguistic rights. The lecture will narrate the context in which the People's Linguistic Survey had to be undertaken and how it was carried out. It will discuss the nature of relationship between diversity and democracy in India G N Devy writes in three languages, Marathi, Gujarati and English. He initiated the People’s Linguistic Survey of India in 2010, and carried out a detailed survey of 780 living languages in India.

    APRIL 2020 MOVEMENT PASSES The Australian High Commission in New Delhi and Consulates in Chennai and Mumbai are working hard on obtaining movement passes for those travelling on charter flights to Australia in coming days. THE PROCESS When you purchase tickets through the charter operator, the information is shared with us. When you are located somewhere with other passengers… For those who are located in cities where there are a number of other people travelling on the same flight, KTC – a transport company – will contact you. KTC will advise you of details for a bus trip which will get you to the city where you are departing from. There will be a cost for this bus service. It is an Indian Government requirement that you use this service. KTC will provide the High Commission and Consulates General your information for the movement pass. When you are not located somewhere with other passengers… If you are located in a city or town where there will be few people travelling on your flight, you will have to arrange your own transport. You receive an email from the High Commission or either of the Mumbai or Chennai Consulates-General. We will ask you to fill out an online form. It is very important you complete this form accurately. If you don’t, it may mean you do not get a movement pass. We will ask you for information that is critical to obtaining a movement pass.
