  • An Interview with Teesta Setalvad
    Jindal Global Law Review https://doi.org/10.1007/s41020-020-00116-3 ARTICLE Proto‑fascism and State impunity in Majoritarian India: An Interview with Teesta Setalvad Oishik Sircar1 © O.P. Jindal Global University (JGU) 2020 Abstract This interview with Teesta Setalvad was conducted in the wake of the February 2020 anti-Muslim violence in North East Delhi. Drawing on her vast experience as a human rights activist, journalist, and peace educator, Setalvad’s responses map the continuum — across years, anti-minority pogroms and ruling parties with divergent ideologies — of the cultures of hate, and the practices of state repression and impu- nity in a proto-fascist India. Setalvad ofers an interrogation of the ideology of the Hindu right, delves into the historical trajectories of the rise of the Rashtriya Sway- amsevak Sangh (RSS) and the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). She also charts the repeating patterns of police and media complicity in fomenting anti-minority hate and critically analyses the contradictory role of the criminal law and the Constitu- tion of India in both enabling and resisting communal violence. In conclusion, she ofers hopeful strategies for keeping alive the promise of secularism. Keywords State impunity · Hindutva · Gujarat 2002 · Pogrom · Genocide 1 Introduction The cover of Teesta Setalvad’s memoir — Foot Soldier of the Constitution — features a photograph of her looking directly into the eyes of the reader.1 Her face is partly lit and lightly silhouetted, her eyes simultaneously conveying an invitation and a provocation. One might use words like determination, courage and fortitude to describe the expres- sion on her face — as the blurb on the back cover of the book does.

JAN 9 1986 EDITORIAL PREFACE THE writers of this series of volumes on the variant forms of religious life in India are governed in their work by two impelling motives. I. They endeavour to work in the sincere and sympathetic spirit of science. They desire to understand the perplexingly involved developments of thought and life in India and dis passionately to estimate their value. They recognize the futility of any such attempt to understand and evaluate, unless it is grounded in a thorough historical study of the phenomena investigated. In recognizing this fact they do no more than share what is common ground among all modern students of religion of any repute.

    i Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative The Commonwealth Human Rights Initiative (CHRI) is an independent, non-profit, non-partisan, international non-governmental organisation, working for the practical realisation of human rights in the countries of the Commonwealth. In 1987, several Commonwealth professional associations founded CHRI, with the conviction that there was little focus on the issues of human rights within the Commonwealth although the organisation provided member countries a shared set of values and legal principles from which to work. CHRI’s objectives are to promote awareness of and adherence to the Commonwealth Harare Principles, the Universal Declaration of Human Rights and other internationally recognised human rights instruments, as well as domestic instruments supporting human rights in Commonwealth member states. Through reports and periodic investigations, CHRI continually draws attention to progress and setbacks to human rights in Commonwealth countries. In advocating for approaches and measures to prevent human rights abuses, CHRI addresses the Commonwealth Secretariat, member Governments and civil society associations. Through its public education programmes, policy dialogues, comparative research, advocacy and networking, CHRI’s approach throughout is to act as a catalyst around its priority issues. CHRI is headquartered in New Delhi, India, and has offices in London, UK and Accra, Ghana. International Advisory Commission: Yashpal Ghai - Chairperson.

  • Constitutional Crisis in Gujarat
    Constitutional Crisis in Gujarat:- The main cause of the Constitutional crisis is that the Chief Minister of Gujarat is abusing his position as Administrative Head of the State in practically all spheres of the Administration and is violating the Basic Structure of the Constitution and using entire state machinery to defeat the mandate of the Constitution and subvert the cause of public justice. We particularly bring to your notice the following actions of the Government which violates the Basic Structure of the Constitution. a) Abusing his position as a Chief Minister in Administration of Justice and instead of honestly prosecuting those who are guilty of murders, mayhem and wanton destruction of property of hundreds of people are brought to justice and instead he is taking steps to ensure that they go Scot Free. Towards this end he and his administration, including senior partymen and legislators are indulging in activities that amount to tampering with evidence, influencing witnesses and de-railing the justice process. The chief minister is also abusing his powers and specifically patronizing those lawyers who are appearing as counsel for those accused of major crimes by handpicking them as special public prosecutors at high stipends. In 2004, the Supreme Court of India had pulled up the government of Gujarat for subverting the justice system remarking that the “public prosecutors in the 2002 carnage cases were behaving like defence counsel.” Subversion of the Criminal Justice System “...Doraiswamy J and Pasayat J identified serious deficiencies in the manner the case had been investigated and also the manner in which the proceedings in that case had been conducted in the trial court and in the High Court.

  • Morocco Shadow Report Outline
    INDIA 13th Session of the Working Group on the Universal Periodic Review United Nations Human Rights Council 21 May – 1 June, 2012 Joint Written Statement submitted by The Advocates for Human Rights, an NGO in special consultative status, in collaboration with the Indian American Muslim Council and Jamia Teacher Solidarity Association1 I. EXECUTIVE SUMMARY 1. Founded in 1983, The Advocates for Human Rights (The Advocates) is a volunteer-based non-governmental organization committed to the impartial promotion and protection of international human rights standards and the rule of law. The Advocates conducts a range of programs to promote human rights in the United States and around the world, including monitoring and fact finding, direct legal representation, education and training, and publications. 2. Indian American Muslim Council (IAMC) is a Washington, D.C. based apolitical and non- profit organization dedicated to promoting peace, pluralism and social justice through advocacy and outreach across communities. Founded in August 2002, IAMC is the largest advocacy organization of Indian Muslims in the United States with 12 chapters across the United States. IAMC strives to strengthen secular institutions in India and promotes peaceful co-existence amongst all ethnic and religious groups. 3. India‟s large and religiously diverse population makes it one of the most pluralistic societies in the world. During the period considered under the Human Rights Council‟s Universal Periodic Review, however, there has been an alarming rise in discrimination and violence against religious minorities such as Muslims and Christians in various states across India, including Gujarat, Orissa and Karnataka.2 While discrimination and violence against Muslims has long been a problem in India (most notably during the targeting of Muslims in Gujarat in 2002) the increasingly systematic violence can be attributed, in part at least, to a rise in Hindu nationalism.3 4.

  • On the Indian Sect of the Jainas. Translated from the German. Edited
    UNIVERSITY OF TORONTO LIBRARY WILLIAM H. DONNER COLLECTION purchased from a gift by THE DONNER CANADIAN FOUNDATION 3Q- ON THE INDIAN SECT OF THE JAINAS BY JOHANN GEORG BUHLER C.I.E., LLD., PH.D. Member of the Imperial Academy of Sciences, Vienna. TRANSLATED FROM THE GERMAN. EDITED with an OUTLINE of JAINA MYTHOLOGY BY JAs. BURGESS, C.I.E., LL.D., F.R.S.E. LONDON : LUZAC & Co., PUBLISHERS TO THE INDIA OFFICE 46, Great Russell Street 1903. PRINTED BY E. J. BRILL, LEYDEN (Holland). PREFACE. The late Dr. Georg Biihler s essay Ueber die Indische Secte der Jaina, read at the anniversary meeting of the Imperial Academy of Sciences of Vienna on the 26 th May 1887, has been for some time out of print in the separate form. Its value as a succinct account of the Sravaka sect, by a scholar conversant with them and their religious literature is well known to European scholars; but to nearly all educated natives of India works pu blished in German and other continental languages are practically sealed books, and thus the fresh information which they are well able to contribute is not elicited. It is hoped that the translation of this small work may meet with their acceptance and that of Europeans in India and elsewhere to whom the original is either unknown or who do not find a foreign language so easy to read as their own. The translation has been prepared under my supervision, and with a few short footnotes. Professor Biihler s long note on the authenticity of the Jaina PREFACE.

  • Gujarat Files
    Dedicated to Mukul Sinha and Shahid Azmi who gave me a purpose to fight. For Abba and Ammi Contents Title page Dedication Foreword Preface Chapter 1 Chapter 2 Chapter 3 Chapter 4 Chapter 5 Chapter 6 Chapter 7 Chapter 8 Chapter 9 Chapter 10 Chapter 11 Endnotes Copyright FOREWORD िहरयेन पाेण ससािपिहतं मुखं । तं पुषपावृणु सधमाय ये ।। (The face of truth is covered by the golden vessel; Oh Pushan, uncover it for the vision of truthful dharma) —Ishavasyopanishad ‘Truth is stranger than fiction, but it is because Fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities; Truth isn’t’, said Mark Twain epigrammatically. But, the nature of truth, has baffled philosophers all over the world for ages. Like the Holy Grail, it is envisioned differently by different persons in different times and tracts. People who pursue the truth single-mindedly must of necessity tread the lonely path beset with travails and tribulations bereft of expectations of help from anyone except their own conscience to guide them. This version of the truth of the disturbing events in Gujarat during 2002 and the saga of fake encounters makes fascinating reading. According to the author, this book gives the reader an insight provided by the lens of a spy camera and spy microphone both of which were freely used in a long drawn sting operation. As to whether the material presented in this book represents facts, or mere perspective vision of the events, is for the reader to judge. The narrative interspersed with quoted conversations makes interesting reading. It is for the State apparatus enforcing the Rule of Law and the Constitutional machinery as its sentinel to objectively assess the trustworthiness of the facts narrated here and take necessary action to restore the faith of the citizens of this country in the Rule of Law.
