    Shop Licensing in Bangalore: The Licence Raj! Nandini Hampole & Naveen KR CCS RESEARCH INTERNSHIP PAPERS 2004 Centre for Civil Society K-36 Hauz Khas Enclave, New Delhi 110016 Tel: 2653 7456/ 2652 1882 Fax: 2651 2347 Email: [email protected] Web: www.ccsindia.org “Paying bribe or hiring middlemen to do my job is a way of life for me” says Ramappa, a sweetmeat shop owner, in Yadur market, Bangalore city. Practicing the path of illegality day in a day out is a way of life for most of Bangalore’s small shop owners. This paper documents the difficulties in the opening, renewal and running of a small shop in Bangalore and the different agencies involved in turning this process into a never ending odyssey. Who is to blame for the corrupted legal machinery, the unaccounted money transactions carried out in our city? Is it entirely the fault of the lethargic government system or are the shop owners to blame as well? According to the Karnataka Municipal Act, 1976, a Trade Premises means any premises used or intended to be used for carrying out any trade.1 All shops to operate in the city must procure a trade licence.2 The revenue collected from this forms a huge chunk of the Bangalore Mahanagara Palike’s3 (BMP) budget. Till 2003, opening a shop was a centralised, unending process controlled by the BMP. This meant, no information to the public as to where and how to proceed, or the kind of documents required to be attached when one wanted to procure a trade licence.

These films actualize region as a cinematic imaginary through its authenticity markers – caste/ist practices explicitly, which earlier films constructed as a ‘trope’. The paper uses the concept of Heterotopias to analyse the recurrence of spectacle spaces in the construction of Madurai, and the production of caste in contemporary films. In this pursuit, it interrogates the implications of such spatial discourses. Spectacle spaces: Production of caste in recent Tamil films To foreground the study of caste in Tamil films and to link it with the rise of ‘caste- gestapo’ networks that execute honour killings and murders as a reaction to ‘inter-caste love dramas’ in Tamil Nadu,1 let me narrate a political incident that occurred in Tamil Nadu – that of the formation of a socio-political movement against Dalit assertion in December 2012.

It was observed that Chevalior Sivaji film songs reflect the theoretical domain such as (i) equity and social justice and (ii) the practice of virtue in the society. In this research work attention has been made to conceptualize the ethical ideas and compare it with the ethical theories using a novel methodology wherein the ideas contained in the film song are compared with the ethical theory. Few songs with the uncompromising premise of patni (chastity of women) with the four important charateristics of women of Tamil culture i.e. acham, madam, nanam and payirpu that leads to the great concept of chastity practiced by exalting woman like Kannagi has also been dealt with. The ethical ideas that contain in the selection of songs were made out from the selected movies acted by Chevalier Shivaji giving preference to the songs that contain the above unique concept of ethics.
