Indian National Lok Dal – Chandigarh – Police Refugee Review Tribunal AUSTRALIA RRT RESEARCH RESPONSE Research Response Number: IND30460 Country: India Date: 30 August 2006 Keywords: India – Indian National Lok Dal – Chandigarh – Police This response was prepared by the Country Research Section of the Refugee Review Tribunal (RRT) after researching publicly accessible information currently available to the RRT within time constraints. This response is not, and does not purport to be, conclusive as to the merit of any particular claim to refugee status or asylum. Questions 1. What is the current political situation of the Indian National Lok Dal Party? 2. Is there evidence of violence or harassment of Indian National Lok Dal Party members in India? 3. Is there evidence of violence or harassment of Indian National Lok Dal Party members specifically in Chandigarh? 4. Is there any evidence of police collusion in violence against Indian National Lok Dal Party members in Chandigarh? RESPONSE 1. What is the current political situation of the Indian National Lok Dal Party? The Political Handbook of the World: 2005-2006 includes an entry on the INLD that indicates that at the 2004 general election in India, “the INLD won no seats.” The party had broken “with the BJP [Bharatiya Janata Party] shortly before the 2004 general election”. The INLD also “lost control of Haryana at the March 2005 state elections” (Banks, Arthur S., Muller, Thomas C. & Overstreet, William R. (eds) 2006, Political Handbook of the World: 2005-2006, CQ Press, Washington, p. 517 – Attachment 2). The RRT Country Research resource guide The Republic & States of India at a Glance, updated August 2006 also provides information on the INLD (RRT Country Research 2006, The Republic & States of India at a Glance, August, p. 21 – Attachment 3). An article dated 4 May 2006 indicates that at the 2005 Haryana State Assembly elections, the INLD won just 9 seats out of a possible 90 seats. It is stated in the article that: Om Prakash Chautala is the leader of the Indian National Lok Dal (INLD), a Harayana based political party. He was also the former Chief Minister of the State. However, in the 2005 Haryana state Assembly elections the INLD lost its majority, winning just 9 out of the 90 seats compared to the Congress party’s 67 seats. Chautala resigned and Bhupinder Singh Hooda became the Chief Minister of Haryana (‘CBI raids 21 premises of former Haryana CM Om Prakash Chautala’ 2006, Hindustan Times, 4 May – Attachment 4). An article in Frontline dated 12-25 March 2005 refers to the decline of the INLD beginning “with the 2004 Lok Sabha elections, and resentment against the party increased as the Assembly elections drew near.” The article also indicates that “There was too much concentration of power in the hands of Chautala and his two sons, which distanced him from party legislators and ordinary people” (Rajalakshmi, T.K. 2005, ‘A thumping victory’, Frontline, Volume 22 – Issue 06, 12-25 March http://www.hinduonnet.com/fline/fl2206/stories/20050325001702700.htm – Accessed 28 August 2006 – Attachment 5). Another article dated 6 June 2005 indicates that the INLD had been unsuccessful in a subsequent by-election for the seat of Kiloi in Haryana, which was won by the Congress party candidate. The INLD and BJP did not field candidates in by-elections for two other seats in Haryana, caused by the deaths of two Congress ministers in a helicopter crash (‘All non-Congress candidates lose deposits in Haryana (‘All non-Congress candidates lose deposits in Haryana’ 2005, Hindustan Times, 6 June – Attachment 6). An article dated 1 October 2005 refers to the INLD candidate finishing third in a by-election for the Rohtak Lok Sabha seat. The seat was won by the Congress party candidate, who was the son of Haryana’s Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda. Hooda had vacated the Rohtak Lok Sabha seat upon being appointed chief minister (‘Hooda’s son wins parliamentary by- election’ 2005, Hindustan Times, 1 October – Attachment 7). An earlier article dated 28 June 2004 refers to Ajay Chautala of the INLD being elected “in the Rajya Sabha (upper house of Indian Parliament) election in northern Indian state of Haryana” (‘Congress suffers defeat, Chautala, Singh make it to RS’ 2004, The Press Trust of India Limited, 28 June – Attachment 8). The statistical report on the 2004 general elections in India indicates that the one seat in Chandigarh was won by the Indian National Congress. The report also indicates that the INLD contested seats in Haryana, Rajasthan, Uttar Pradesh and Chandigarh, but was unsuccessful (Election Commission of India 2004, ‘Statistical Report on General Elections, 2004 to The 14th Lok Sabha’, Volume 1, Election Commission of India website http://www.eci.gov.in – Accessed 9 August 2006, pp 108 & 127 – Attachment 9). 2. Is there evidence of violence or harassment of Indian National Lok Dal Party members in India? 3. Is there evidence of violence or harassment of Indian National Lok Dal Party members specifically in Chandigarh? A search of the sources consulted found little information regarding evidence of violence or harassment of Indian National Lok Dal Party members in India and/or Chandigarh. The RRT Country Research resource guide The Republic & States of India at a Glance, updated August 2006 notes that Chandigarh is administered as a Union Territory by the Indian national government, and is the capital of the states of Haryana and Punjab. The resource guide includes information on Chandigarh and Haryana (RRT Country Research 2006, The Republic & States of India at a Glance, August, pp 46 & 81 – Attachment 3). An article dated 22 August 2006 refers to a Punjab police officer in Rohtak, Haryana being arrested after allegedly firing upon a guard at an INLD office. The guard was unhurt and the police officer, who was reported to be drunk, “was charged with attempt to murder, police said” (‘Constable arrested after opening fire on guard’ 2006, NewKerala.com website, 22 August http://www.newkerala.com/news4.php?action=fullnews&id=10823 – Accessed 28 August 2006 – Attachment 10). An article dated 4 February 2005 indicates that “Barring a few stray incidents of poll violence in the prestigious Narwana constituency and the murder of the driver of the Congress candidate in the Barwala constituency, polling in Haryana for the State Assembly elections today was by and large peaceful.” The article refers to “reports of minor clashes in Karamgarh and a few other places between Congress and INLD supporters. However, the police and para-military forces brought the situation under control. While reports said that several persons were injured, the Returning Officer asserted that nobody had been hurt.” It is stated in the article that: There was tension in Mirchpur village in the Barwala constituency after Kulbir Singh, the driver of the Congress candidate, was allegedly shot dead following a quarrel with the INLD supporters. The Congress MP from Hissar, Jai Prakash, alleged that the driver was shot by persons close to the INLD nominee. There were also reports of minor skirmishes between Congress and INLD workers in Ballabgarh constituency. It is learnt that the Sirsa police registered a case under various sections of the Indian Penal Code against three Congress activists, including the son-in-law of the party nominee and former minister, Lachhman Dass Arora, in connection with an attack in which three INLD workers were injured (Ahuja, Rajesh 2005, ‘Polling in Haryana peaceful’, The Hindu, 4 February – Attachment 11). An article dated 30 April 2004 refers to the lack of “criminalisation of politics” in Chandigarh and mentions the comments of a political observer from Panjab University, who indicated that there was “no power struggle in Chandigarh, as the government in the form of the Municipal Corporation has not much of financial powers” (Bipindra, N.C. 2004, ‘UT seat free from criminalisation of politics’, The Times of India, 30 April – Attachment 12). An article in The Tribune (Chandigarh) dated 2 April 2004 indicates that “A former President of the Naggal unit of the Indian National Lok Dal, Mr Amrik Singh, was shot at on the Ambala-Jagadhri road this morning.” Mr Singh, who sustained two bullet wounds, was rushed to hospital and his condition was “stated to be stable.” Officials believed that the incident was “not politically motivated” (‘INLD leader shot at’ 2004, The Tribune (Chandigarh), 2 April http://www.tribuneindia.com/2004/20040402/haryana.htm#18 – Accessed 28 August 2006 – Attachment 13). 4. Is there any evidence of police collusion in violence against Indian National Lok Dal Party members in Chandigarh? A search of the sources consulted found no reference to information regarding police collusion in violence against Indian National Lok Dal Party members in Chandigarh. Information was found regarding police investigations in relation to INLD leader and former Chief Minister of Haryana Om Prakash Chautala and his family. A previously mentioned article dated 4 May 2006 indicates that “The Central Bureau of Investigation [CBI] today raided 21 premises of former Haryana Chief Minister Om Prakash Chautala across the country in connection with a disproportionate assets case.” According to the article: Om Prakash Chautala is the leader of the Indian National Lok Dal (INLD), a Harayana based political party. He was also the former Chief Minister of the State. However, in the 2005 Haryana state Assembly elections the INLD lost its majority, winning just 9 out of the 90 seats compared to the Congress party’s 67 seats. Chautala resigned and Bhupinder Singh Hooda became the Chief Minister of Haryana. During his controversial tenure as Chief Minister of Haryana, he was accused of significant amounts of corruption and extortion, and of creating a cult of his family, especially his father Chaudhari Devi Lal, a former deputy Prime Minister of India (‘CBI raids 21 premises of former Haryana CM Om Prakash Chautala’ 2006, Hindustan Times, 4 May – Attachment 4).

  • MP Deepender Singh Hooda MP Arjun Ram Meghwal
    INDIAN LEADERS PROGRAM, FOURTH EDITION ‐ MEMBERS OF PARLIAMENT May 31st to June 5th 2015, Madrid and Barcelona SPAIN‐INDIA COUNCIL FOUNDATION MP Deepender Singh Hooda Deepender Singh Hooda is a third term Member of Parliament for Rohtak in Haryana State constituency, whip of Indian National Congress in Lok Sabha (Lower House of Parliament), National Spokesperson of Indian National Congress. He actively serves as Member of the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Energy; and Member of the Ad hoc Committee on Absenteeism of Members in the Parliament. He also leads INC’s Social Media Communications Team. Deepender was first elected to the thirteenth Lok Sabha (in 2005) as an MP from Rohtak (Haryana) at the young age of 27. His unwavering commitment earned him a victory by a record margin (of about 4 and a half Lakh votes) when he sought re‐election to Lok‐ Sabha for the second term in 2009. He continued his winning streak for the third time in 2014 even when his party faced strong anti‐incumbency. Areas of agriculture, energy, India’s economic growth and employment potentials find Deepender's passionate involvement, both in his constituency and at a broader national level. Hooda is a third‐generation Parliamentarian from a family with a rich political heritage extending over four generations. His father, Bhupinder Singh Hooda, was the Chief Minister of Haryana for two terms from Mar 2005 ‐ Oct 2014. Deepender's grandfather, Ranbir Singh was a noted freedom fighter, an eminent parliamentarian and one of the founding fathers of India (by virtue of him being a member of the Constituent Assembly of India (1946‐1950) which was responsible for drafting the Constitution of India).

  • Failure of the Mahagathbandhan
    ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 Failure of the Mahagathbandhan In the Lok Sabha elections of 2019 in Uttar Pradesh, the contest was keenly watched as the alliance of the Samajwadi Party, Bahujan Samaj Party, and Rashtriya Lok Dal took on the challenge against the domination of the Bharatiya Janata Party. What contributed to the continued good performance of the BJP and the inability of the alliance to assert its presence is the focus of analysis here. In the last decade, politics in Uttar Pradesh (UP) has seen radical shifts. The Lok Sabha elections 2009 saw the Congress’s comeback in UP. It gained votes in all subregions of UP and also registered a sizeable increase in vote share among all social groups. The 2012 assembly elections gave a big victory to the Samajwadi Party (SP) when it was able to get votes beyond its traditional voters: Muslims and Other Backward Classes (OBCs). The 2014 Lok Sabha elections saw the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) winning 73 seats with its ally Apna Dal. It was facilitated by the consolidation of voters cutting across caste and class, in favour of the party. Riding on the popularity of Narendra Modi, the BJP was able to trounce the regional parties and emerge victorious in the 2017 assembly elections as well. But, against the backdrop of anti-incumbency, an indifferent economic record, and with the coming together of the regional parties, it was generally believed that the BJP would not be able to replicate its success in 2019. However, the BJP’s performance in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections shows its continued domination over the politics of UP.
