  • PEOPLE's UNION for CIVIL LIBERTIES Maharashtra State Unit
    PEOPLE’S UNION FOR CIVIL LIBERTIES Maharashtra State Unit Ad Hoc Committee Convenor: Mihir Desai; Members: Sandhya Gokhale, Rajni Bakshi, Sitaram Shelar, Dolphy D’souza, Alex D’mello, Lara Jesani Email: [email protected] Date: 06.06.2018 PUCL, MAHARASHTRA CONDEMNS THE ARREST OF SURENDRA GADLING, SUDHIR DHAWALE, RONA WILSON / RANA JACOB, SHOMA SEN AND MAHESH RAUT ON 6TH JUNE 2018 PUCL strongly condemns the vindictive and arbitrary arrest of Advocate Surendra Gadling, Mr. Sudhir Dhawale, Mr. Rona Wilson / Rana Jacob, Ms. Shoma Sen and Mr. Mahesh Raut on 6th June 2018. They have been reportedly booked under the draconian Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act (UAPA), on the allegation of spreading controversial pamphlets and delivering hate speeches in connection with the Bhima Koregaon violence that broke out in January 2018. Even before their arrest, systematic raids were carried out by the police at their premises early in the morning. It is reported that the above persons are being taken to Pune on transit remand from their respective locations by the Pune police. All these above persons have been active in various movements and organizations, and have publicly defended the rights of Dalits and various sections of marginalized people. The simultaneous arrests at all India level (Nagpur, Pune, Mumbai, Delhi) by State authorities, smack of predetermined planned attack on people who have been protesting against injustice and atrocities perpetuated by various State and non-State Hindu right-wing groups. These arrest amounts to blatant violation of citizen’s rights to freedom of expression and voicing dissent, and is clearly a move to target individuals working for rights of the marginalised sections of society, and to produce a chilling effect on voices of dissent.

  • Indian Society
    www.livemint.com 2018-01-01 Gordon Brown Protectionist and “bring-back-control” movements will continue to flourish so long as globalisation remains leaderless, lacks a human face, and advances like a runaway train careening out of control. Sadly, there are good reasons why globalisation has become a dirty word for millions of people. The pillars of the 30-year-old Washington Consensus have been collapsing. Most now agree that free trade without fair trade creates millions of losers, in addition to some winners. Unregulated capital flows, especially short-term speculative flows, can destabilize economies. And rising social inequalities can be bad for growth. These realizations are punching holes in the free-market fundamentalism— focused on liberalization, deregulation, privatization, tax-cutting, and the shrinking of the state—that has prevailed in policymaking circles over the last few decades. Ten years after the global financial crisis, we can now accept that individuals and corporations acting solely in their own self-interest do not always serve that of the public. And yet a new economic paradigm for the global age still has not emerged. In the resulting vacuum, protectionism, anti-trade populism, and illiberal—often xenophobic—nationalism have gained ground, fueled by anxieties about stagnant wages, technological unemployment, and rising insecurity. Make no mistake: those left out and left behind by globalisation are actively searching for something and someone to articulate their discontent and shelter them from change. But neither nationalism— whether that espoused by US President Donald Trump or its other manifestations—nor overly formulaic or elaborate systems of global governance will meet the needs and desires of people for prosperity, security, equity, and self-determination.

  • Screen Rant Supergirl Season 2 Confirmed for the CW Next: 15
    Screen Rant Share On Facebook Comments (45) Follow Us Like 658K Follow @screenrant 80.4K followers SR EXCLUSIVES MOVIE NEWS TV NEWS REVIEWS VIDEOS LISTS + TRAILERS PODCASTS TOP MOVIES Up Next Supergirl Season 2 Confirmed For The CW By Molly Freeman 10 hours ago 45 Comments 839shares 45 Developed by The CW’s DC Comics TV universe architect, Greg Berlanti, along with Ali Adlier (No Ordinary Family, Chuck), Supergirl was first thought to land at the network alongside previously established superhero dramas Arrow and The Flash. However, CBS picked up Supergirl and debuted the first season, which followed Kara Danvers a.k.a. Kara Zor-El (Melissa Benoist) as she began to take on the mantle of Supegirl and avoid the shadow of her cousin, Superman. However, recently the future CBS’s DC Comics series seemed to be in question. Although CBS CEO Les Moonves seemed to indicate Supergirl would receive a second season order, the deadline for an official announcement began to draw closer without any confirmation from the network. Now, it seems Supergirl will receive a second season, but not at CBS. The Wrap is reporting Supergirl has been renewed for season 2, but it will move to The CW – which CBS co-owns with Warner Bros. Television. The report is in line with previous rumors of Supergirl moving to The CW amidst talks of cutting the superhero drama’s budget after a costly freshman season. In addition to the network change, the production of Supergirl will move from Los Angeles, California to Vancouver, Canada where fellow CW shows Arrow, The Flash, and Legends of Tomorrow film – all of which were renewed earlier this year by The CW.
