  • India: Anti-Muslim Citizenship Amendment
    India: Anti-Muslim Citizenship Amendment SAYRA RAFIUZZAMAN • POLICY ANALYST • 2 OCTOBRE 2020 Women attending the Shaheen Bagh Protest Summary Prime Minister Modi’s government intends to assemble a National Register of Citizens (NRC) across India. Along with this, the Citizenship Amendment Act (CAA) or Citizenship Amendment Bill (CAB) 2019, has created a situation in which the Muslim minorities and document-less minorities of India may be deprived of citizenship and rights (Shankar, 2020). This affects women minorities in particular, risking displacement in mass numbers (BhowmicK, 2020). Currently there are four ways to obtain Indian citizenship: birth, descent, registration and naturalization (Shankar, 2019). However, due to socio-economic restrictions, many women do not have access to birth certificates or paperwork, leaving them at risk of being stripped of their Indian identity (Bhowmick, 2020). Background The Citizenship Amendment Bill which was passed into legislation at the closing of 2019 has left India with widespread protests. The bill fast tracKs citizenship for immigrants of three neighboring countries: Bangladesh, Afghanistan, and Pakistan. This process is open for minorities who may face persecution based on religious beliefs in these countries. The range covers Hindus, SiKhs, Buddhists, Jains, Parsis, and Christians. However, it excludes Muslims, even minorities sectarian Muslims who are widely persecuted, such as Shia and Ahmadiyya Muslims (PTI, 2020). While the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) claims this amendment is beneficial in the race to protect minorities, it is important to note that it is unconstitutional as it targets only particular groups, based on religion. It does not provide an equal opportunity for all individuals based on minority status or asylum need (PTI, 2020).

  • WING POPULISM: CAPTURING the GLOBE Pratishtha Rao Department of Political Science, University of Delhi
    J. S. Asian Stud. 08 (02) 2019. 79-90 DOI: 10.33687/jsas.008.02.3009 Available Online at EScience Press Journal of South Asian Studies ISSN: 2307-4000 (Online), 2308-7846 (Print) https://esciencepress.net/journals/JSAS WING POPULISM: CAPTURING THE GLOBE Pratishtha Rao Department of Political Science, University of Delhi. New Delhi, India. *Corresponding Author Email ID: [email protected] A B S T R A C T This article is an attempt to explore the reasons for the recent trend of the rise of rightwing populism in the whole world. The origin of the terms ‘left’ and ‘right’ dates back to the French Revolution and the seating arrangements. The term ‘right’ was soon understood to mean reactionary or monarchist, and the term ‘left’ implied revolutionary or egalitarian sympathies. While populism is an idea of grouping people against ‘the elites. Both right ideology and populism are based on the segregation of society in two sections. When right wing political ideology merges with populist ideology, it is termed as “Right wing populism”. Right wing populists generally converge on issues like opposing immigration, nativism, protectionism etc. This ideology is gaining popularity rapidly in the present world order. The reasons are many, like social media, print and electronic media, civil society, economic instability, and charismatic leadership. Along with this the article also tries to find out the connection of hatred and human nature with the rise of right-wing populism. It focuses on how when hatred at the international level is justified it gives away for hatred at the domestic level as well which results in the cause and effect of right-wing populism.

The pandemic nearly brought the world to a standstill. Those of us who lived during the pandemic witnessed unknown times. The fear of getting infected of a very contagious disease that could even cause death was writ large on people’s faces. People were confined to their homes. They stepped out only when absolutely necessary, e.g. to buy provisions or to access medical services; or if they were serving in essential services like hospitals, security and police, etc. Economic activities were down to minimum. Means of public transportation were halted, all educational institutions, industries and work establishments were closed.
