  • 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

  • Federalism Versus Regional Control
    Working paper Federalism versus Regional Control Implications for Groundwater Resource in India Sheetal Sekhri March 2011 Federalism versus Regional Control: Implications for Groundwater Resource in India ⇤ Sheetal Sekhri† Abstract Federal versus regional control over provision of resources can have di↵erent impli- cations for long run sustainability of natural resources. This paper examines the trade o↵ between short term growth and long term conservation incentives of elected legis- lators from regional and national political parties for groundwater provision. Regional legislators have a stronger incentive to promote regional growth, which can lead to a rapid decline of resource stocks. On the other hand, regional parties are limited to contesting elections from the region, and hence have stronger incentives to conserve re- sources for future periods. These two e↵ects can o↵set each other. This paper proposes and tests the hypothesis that under high cost of provision to the legislators, regional regimes can lead to conservation because they internalize inter-temporal externalities. I use nationally representative data on groundwater from India, and an increase in the cost of groundwater provision for the legislators induced by the reforms in the elec- tricity sector, to show that private competition induced in electricity sector leads to groundwater conservation under regional regimes. JEL Classifications: O12, O13, Q01, Q25, Q56, H54 ⇤I wish to thank Central Groundwater Board of India for providing the groundwater data. Sisir Debnath provided excellent research assistance. Funding from International Growth Centre, London School of Eco- nomics(Grant # RA-2009-11-029) is greatly acknowledged. †Email: [email protected] 1 Introduction There is a fundamental trade-o↵ between resource intensive development initiatives, and sustaining the stock of these resources.

The World Bank estimates are even lower at 2.6 per cent. Momentum in manufacturing activity has weakened substantially to levels not seen since the global financial crisis. Rising trade and geopolitical tensions are also contributing. IMF has further downgraded its forecast for 2020 by 0.2 percentage points. This global growth pattern reflects a major downturn. The IMF suggests further “reform push in such areas as governance, domestic and external finance, trade, and labour and product markets”. Despite the bankruptcy of neo liberalism, IMF brazenly advises governments to deregulate domestic financial markets, implement labour reforms, by easing job protection legislations and cutting barriers to international trade and finance entry into the countries. In its Annual Report 2019, its wants the governments to reduce corporate tax, to make it ‘fair’. These will mean further severe ‘austerity’ policies that are an attack on the livelihood of the people. IMF advices the governments to ‘act swiftly following an electoral victory to implement them (reforms) during their political ‘honeymoon’ period’. Protests Across the World People around the world are in protests against the imposition of further economic burdens.

  • Many Coalitions Such As 1967, 1977 Etc. and All These Coalitions Were Unsuccessful Due to Factions in the Party
    many coalitions such as 1967, 1977 etc. and all these coalitions were unsuccessful due to factions in the party. After 10-12 year of militancy Punjab politics changed, after 1992 there was stable governments of Akali-BJP 1997, Congress - 2002 etc. The role of Akali Dal in re-organisation of state is important. Akali Dal made such demands which were against the Indian constitution. The party passed Anandpur Sahib Resolution which set the path for the other regional parties for the demand of greater power within the Union. Akalis and Congress rivalry resulted in polical instability in Punjab. Another point which is proved by the above discussion is that the Dal was always against the Centre or the Congress. The Akalis always have had alliance with the party having its base in Hindu community. There were some tensions between the both partners but they do not have any other option to keep Congress out of power. STATE POLITICS OF HIMACHAL PRADESH Himachal, known as 'Dev Bhumi' in the ancient times is situated in the heart of the Western Himalayas. The word 'Himachal' derives its origin from two Hindi words, 'Him' and 'Anchal' meaning 'snow' and 'lap' respectively. Etymologically, it stands for the region which lies in the slopes and foothills of snow (Sharda 2010, pp.48-62). To its north lies the state of Jammu and Kashmir, Uttaranchal. Uttar Pradesh in the South East, Haryana to the south and Punjab in the west, whereas on the east it forms India's border with Tibet. At the time of its birth on IS''' April 1948 as a part 'C state of the Indian union Himachal Pradesh consisted of about 30 princely states was totally undemocratic, the society was highly feudal and the economy was extremely primitive, almost tribal.

  • Issn: 2278-6236 Performance of Indian National
    International Journal of Advanced Research in Management and Social Sciences ISSN: 2278-6236 PERFORMANCE OF INDIAN NATIONAL CONGRESSIN HARYANA ASSEMBLY ELECTION 2009 Suman* Neeraj** INTRODUCTION In most of the modern states with large areas and population, the government is run by the representatives, who are elected by the people. For electing the representatives, elections are necessary. Elections are fought generally on party basis, though some candidates fight elections as independent candidates. The party, which gets a majority, forms the government. If the representatives, during their tenure, do not work for the welfare of the people, they can be replaced at the time of next elections. In this way, people maintain their control over the government because their representatives know that they can be voted out of power in the next elections if they do not satisfy the people and work for their welfare. Free and fair elections are the basic characteristics of a democracy by which representative are elected. India is one of the largest democracies of the world where the Member of Parliament (MPs) and Member of Legislative Assembly (MLAs) and administrator at local level are elected directly by the people.For electing the representatives, elections are necessary. MPs and MLAs elections are fought generally on party basis, though some candidates fight elections as independent candidates.In the post-independence period only ‘Indian National Congress’ was the strongest political party. But in present time the regional parties are becoming powerful. The electoral contest between national parties and regional parties has drawn attention of the political geographers and elections are considered essential for the development of the country.
