    COVER STORY JULY 2021 CENTRAL ORGAN OF CPI(ML) Rs. 25 COVER STORY An Engineered and Manufactured ‘Vaccination Record’ On the evening of 21st June, the airwaves were abuzz and the Modi government’s pet anchors were hyperventilating on prime-time television over the ‘record free vaccinations’ of 86 lakhs that were administered on that particular day. Ministers in the Modi Govt lost no time in announcing the record on their social media handles, attributing the numbers to the first day of the Centre taking back charge of Covid vaccinations from the state governments. As night fell and dawn broke, the layers around the propaganda of ‘record free vaccinations’ started to peel off. To begin with the ‘record’ itself was hardly a record. In 1997, 12.7 crore (1270 lakhs) children were given polio vaccine doses in a single day and in 1998, 13.4 crore (1340 lakhs) in a single day. The polio vaccine is an oral one and the covid vaccine has to be administered through an injection, so both are not perfectly comparable, but there is still no doubt that the polio vaccinations on such a huge scale were a challenging achievement recognised around the world. For the Modi Govt to spin 86 lakh Covid vaccines in one day as “unprecedented” was dishonest and purely a PR stunt. As data has emerged it has become clear that this ‘record’ was not ‘natural’ but was engineered and manufactured by the BJP to suit their propaganda. BJP ruled states purposely went slow on vaccinations leading up to 21st June, hoarding up vaccinations so they could show a surge of vaccinations on the 21st.

  • Ethnic Parties, Material Politics and the Ethnic Poor: the Bahujan Samaj Party in North India
    Ethnic Parties, Material Politics and the Ethnic Poor: The Bahujan Samaj Party in North India Sohini Guha, Department of Political Science McGill University, Montreal December 2008 A thesis submitted to McGill University in partial fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (Ph.D.) © Copyright Sohini Guha, 2008 Abstract Many studies explore the determinants of support for ethnic parties, and the consequences of such parties for democracy. This dissertation addresses these questions through a study of the Bahujan Samaj Party (B.S.P.) in India's largest state, Uttar Pradesh (U.P.). The BSP is India's only successful lower caste party, and gained greatest support over the last two decades in U.P., which it now rules. The dissertation argues that material benefits, delivered on a programmatic basis, account for the success of the B.S.P., and perhaps other ethnic parties too, among poorer groups. It also indicates that the B.S.P.'s consequences for democracy -on the whole positive- have depended both on its ties to society, and the breadth of visions of community reigning among its core supporters. The conclusions are based on analyses of electoral results, the caste background of party candidates, patterns of ownership of land and other resources, extensive interviews with party leaders and activists, and ethnographic studies of representative villages in U.P. The argument about the reasons for support questions an assumption common to psychological theories of ethnic voting- that poorer groups vote for ethnic parties because they draw symbolic empowerment from the material ascendancy that ethnic parties secure for coethnic elites.

  • Contemporary Developments in India
    TIF - Contemporary Developments in India RAM BHAT November 6, 2020 A welcome sign at Attari, on the India-Pakistan border | Adam Jones (CC BY-SA 2.0) A conversation, including by a group of college students, with the historian Ramachandra Guha on contemporary politics, environmental issues, and Adivasi rights. On 30 August, Ramachandra Guha, whose works include a two-volume biography of Mahatma Gandhi; India After Gandhi: The History of the World’s Largest Democracy; and Environmentalism: A Global History, had a three-way online conversation with Ram Bhat, and university students from Chhattisgarh. The discussion was free flowing and covered a wide range of topics on contemporary issues in India, including the impact of majoritarian ideologies on the state and its institutions, on threats to the environment from current economic policies, and on Adivasi politics. Excerpts. Majoritarianism, Institutions, and the State Student: I want to ask a question with respect to the growing intolerance and majoritarian insecurities that I see right now around me. That is very visible through use of phrases like “Hindu khatre me hai” which I hear often. And this is something which is not particular to India. We have seen this in other countries as well. So, as a historian, why do you think the majority community happens to have such irrational insecurity? Ramachandra Guha (RG): You are absolutely right. It is not peculiar to India and to understand it (not to excuse or apologize for it), take the example of Sri Lanka. Now in Sri Lanka, the Sinhalas were in a majority but yet they Page 1 www.TheIndiaForum.in November 6, 2020 felt insecure about Tamils.
