ALIGARH [ZAKIR HUSSAIN KHAN] INTRODUCTION TO BIBLIOGRAPHY AIM AND SCOPE Uttar Pradesh the largest populous state of the country is a politically volatile entity of the Indian fedral structure. It has the largest share of 85 representatives in the Indian Parliament. In the pre- independence period, it was called United provinces of Agra and Oudh joined together for administrative purpose by the Britishers and later after 1935 the name was shortened to United province. Though the state of Uttar Pradesh as it was named after independence was dominated by the single party that is Congress, now has a totally changed scenario with a large number of regional parties on the scene. This new grouping of the political forces in the last decade has given a twist to the state politics and its impact on the national politics is visible with bare eye. From the last one decade whereby the one party domination of Congress came to an end and new forces emerged in the state. Everybody intends to read and know about the changing political equations of Uttar Pradesh. The present study contains in the form of annotated, bibliography, significant literature appearing in some periodicals dealing with party politics in Uttar Pradesh. IX Although the bibliography is selective in nature an attempt has been made to cover all major aspects of the politics of Uttar Pradesh. In all 200 articles on the topic have been included in the present work. The bibliography is divided in to three parts: Part one deals with the description of work. PART two which is the main part of the present study, consisting of an annotated list of 200 articles on the subject. Part three includes author and title index. METHODOLOGY The procedure followed in preparing the bibliography was as follows: (I) Firstly the secondary sources "Guide to Indian Periodical Literature" and "Index India" were consulted in Maulana Azad Library, A.M.U., Aligarh to find out the location. (II) The relevant bibliographical details were noted on 5" X 7" cards following Indian standards for bibliographic information. (III) On completion of the abstracts subject headings were assigned. (IV) The entries were then arranged in a alphabetical sequence (letter-by-letter). XXl (V) A list of periodicals with their frequency and place of publication is also given. (VI) Two separate alphabetical indexes, author, index and title index provideing reference to various entries by their respective numbers were gil/en at the end. SUBJECT HE2\DINGS Attempt has been made to give co-extensive subject headings as much as possible and allowed by natural language, if more than one entry comes under the same subject heading, these are arranged alphabetically by author(s) name(s). STANDARD FOLLOWED For giving the bibliographical references care has been taken to follow strictly the rules and practice of Indian standard for bibliographical references (18:2 381-1963) for each entry of the bibliography. Names of the periodicals have been given in full and the months are given in abbreviated form. Thus it gives uniformity for the bibliographical references throughout the bibliography. ARRANGEMENT The bibliographical part has been arranged alphabetically according to subject headings. The items of the bibliographical reference for each entry of periodicals IV are arranged in the following order: (a) Name(s) of the author(s). (b) Full stop. (c) Title of the article including sub title, if any. (d) Full stop (.). (e) Title of periodical (underlined). (f) Full stop (.). (g) Volume number. (h) Comma (,). (i) Issue number. (j) Semi colon (;). (k) Year of publication. (1) Comma (, ) (m) Month of publication with date, if any. (nO Semi colon (;). (o) Inclusive pages of article. ABSTRACT The entries in the bibliography contain abstracts giving the essential information about the article. Attempt has been made to prepare abstracts in a manner so that it can fulfil the needs of consultant to a maximum level. SPECIMEN ENTRY GOYAL (DR) BJP evolves caste strategy for U.P. elections. Wew Age. 46, 28; 1996, July 14;7. Comments that after failing in its bid to retain power at the centre, the Bhartiya Janta Party is now bending all its energies to capture Lucknow. Victory in the largest state of the country is crucial for it. At one side they have to boost the morale of their cadre greatly depressed by the defeat in Parliament, and on the other hand it has to evolve a formula to make a base among the OBC's, so that BJP can comeout with a sound majority and can install government on its own. INDEXES The index part contains the list of the author index and the title index in alphabetical sequence. Each index entry is followed by an entry number in the bibliographical part. The index will be of great help to the users of the bibliography.

Special leave granted. These appeals impugn the judgment and order of a Division Bench of the High Court of Delhi in Letters Patent appeals. The Letters Patent appeals challenged the judgment and order of a learned single judge allowing a writ petition. The Letters Patent appeals were dismissed, subject to a direction to the Union of India (the second respondent). The writ petition was filed by the first respondent to quash the certificate of exhibition awarded to the film "Bandit Queen" and to restrain its exhibition in India. The film deals with the life of Phoolan Devi. It is based upon a true story. Still a child, Phoolan Devi was married off to a man old enough to be her father. She was beaten and raped by him. She was tormented by the boys of the village; and beaten by them when she foiled the advances of one of them. A village panchayat called after the incident blamed Phoolan Devi for attempting to entice the boy, who belonged to a higher caste.

  • E-Digest on Ambedkar's Appropriation by Hindutva Ideology
    Ambedkar’s Appropriation by Hindutva Ideology An E-Digest Compiled by Ram Puniyani (For Private Circulation) Center for Study of Society and Secularism & All India Secular Forum 602 & 603, New Silver Star, Behind BEST Bus Depot, Santacruz (E), Mumbai: - 400 055. E-mail: [email protected], www.csss-isla.com Page | 1 E-Digest - Ambedkar’s Appropriation by Hindutva Ideology Preface Many a debates are raging in various circles related to Ambedkar’s ideology. On one hand the RSS combine has been very active to prove that RSS ideology is close to Ambedkar’s ideology. In this direction RSS mouth pieces Organizer (English) and Panchjanya (Hindi) brought out special supplements on the occasion of anniversary of Ambedkar, praising him. This is very surprising as RSS is for Hindu nation while Ambedkar has pointed out that Hindu Raj will be the biggest calamity for dalits. The second debate is about Ambedkar-Gandhi. This came to forefront with Arundhati Roy’s introduction to Ambedkar’s ‘Annihilation of Caste’ published by Navayana. In her introduction ‘Doctor and the Saint’ Roy is critical of Gandhi’s various ideas. This digest brings together some of the essays and articles by various scholars-activists on the theme. Hope this will help us clarify the underlying issues.

  • India: the Weakening of the Congress Stranglehold and the Productivity Shift in India
    ASARC Working Paper 2009/06 India: The Weakening of the Congress Stranglehold and the Productivity Shift in India Desh Gupta, University of Canberra Abstract This paper explains the complex of factors in the weakening of the Congress Party from the height of its power at the centre in 1984. They are connected with the rise of state and regional-based parties, the greater acceptability of BJP as an alternative in some of the states and at the Centre, and as a partner to some of the state-based parties, which are in competition with Congress. In addition, it demonstrates that even as the dominance of Congress has diminished, there have been substantial improvements in the economic performance and primary education enrolment. It is argued that V.P. Singh played an important role both in the diminishing of the Congress Party and in India’s improved economic performance. Competition between BJP and Congress has led to increased focus on improved governance. Congress improved its position in the 2009 Parliamentary elections and the reasons for this are briefly covered. But this does not guarantee an improved performance in the future. Whatever the outcomes of the future elections, India’s reforms are likely to continue and India’s economic future remains bright. Increased political contestability has increased focus on governance by Congress, BJP and even state-based and regional parties. This should ensure improved economic and outcomes and implementation of policies.

  • “Low” Caste Women in India
    Open Cultural Studies 2018; 2: 735-745 Research Article Jyoti Atwal* Embodiment of Untouchability: Cinematic Representations of the “Low” Caste Women in India https://doi.org/10.1515/culture-2018-0066 Received May 3, 2018; accepted December 7, 2018 Abstract: Ironically, feudal relations and embedded caste based gender exploitation remained intact in a free and democratic India in the post-1947 period. I argue that subaltern is not a static category in India. This article takes up three different kinds of genre/representations of “low” caste women in Indian cinema to underline the significance of evolving new methodologies to understand Black (“low” caste) feminism in India. In terms of national significance, Acchyut Kanya represents the ambitious liberal reformist State that saw its culmination in the constitution of India where inclusion and equality were promised to all. The movie Ankur represents the failure of the state to live up to the postcolonial promise of equality and development for all. The third movie, Bandit Queen represents feminine anger of the violated body of a “low” caste woman in rural India. From a dacoit, Phoolan transforms into a constitutionalist to speak about social justice. This indicates faith in Dr. B.R. Ambedkar’s India and in the struggle for legal rights rather than armed insurrection. The main challenge of writing “low” caste women’s histories is that in the Indian feminist circles, the discourse slides into salvaging the pain rather than exploring and studying anger. Keywords: Indian cinema, “low” caste feminism, Bandit Queen, Black feminism By the late nineteenth century due to certain legal and socio-religious reforms,1 space of the Indian family had been opened to public scrutiny.

  • Modi, Social Media, and Competitive Electoral Populism in India
    International Journal of Communication 11(2017), 4158–4180 1932–8036/20170005 Fragile Hegemony: Modi, Social Media, and Competitive Electoral Populism in India SUBIR SINHA1 School of Oriental and African Studies, London, UK Direct and unmediated communication between the leader and the people defines and constitutes populism. I examine how social media, and communicative practices typical to it, function as sites and modes for constituting competing models of the leader, the people, and their relationship in contemporary Indian politics. Social media was mobilized for creating a parliamentary majority for Narendra Modi, who dominated this terrain and whose campaign mastered the use of different platforms to access and enroll diverse social groups into a winning coalition behind his claims to a “developmental sovereignty” ratified by “the people.” Following his victory, other parties and political formations have established substantial presence on these platforms. I examine emerging strategies of using social media to criticize and satirize Modi and offering alternative leader-people relations, thus democratizing social media. Practices of critique and its dissemination suggest the outlines of possible “counterpeople” available for enrollment in populism’s future forms. I conclude with remarks about the connection between activated citizens on social media and the fragility of hegemony in the domain of politics more generally. Keywords: Modi, populism, Twitter, WhatsApp, social media On January 24, 2017, India’s ruling Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), proudly tweeted that Narendra Modi, its iconic prime minister of India, had become “the world’s most followed leader on social media” (see Figure 1). Modi’s management of—and dominance over—media and social media was a key factor contributing to his convincing win in the 2014 general election, when he led his party to a parliamentary majority, winning 31% of the votes cast.

Anurag Bhaskar1 Abstract During the last few decades, India has witnessed two interesting phenomena. First, the Indian Constitution has started to be known as ‘Ambedkar’s Constitution’ in popular discourse. Second, the Dalits have been celebrating the Constitution. These two phenomena and the connection between them have been understudied in the anti-caste discourse. However, there are two generalised views on these aspects. One view is that Dalits practice a politics of restraint, and therefore show allegiance to the Constitution which was drafted by the Ambedkar-led Drafting Committee. The other view criticises the constitutional culture of Dalits and invokes Ambedkar’s rhetorical quote of burning the Constitution. This article critiques both these approaches and argues that none of these fully explores and reflects the phenomenon of constitutionalism by Dalits as an anti-caste social justice agenda. It studies the potential of the Indian Constitution and responds to the claim of Ambedkar burning the Constitution. I argue that Dalits showing ownership to the Constitution is directly linked to the anti-caste movement. I further argue that the popular appeal of the Constitution has been used by Dalits to revive Ambedkar’s legacy, reclaim their space and dignity in society, and mobilise radically against the backlash of the so-called upper castes.
