This act of PM Modi's government proved that the wealthiest families belonging to Gujrat are aiming to force the entire Indian agriculture under their co- operations, seen by many as Indian farmers being made slaves to big co operations and gradually taking away the ownership of their lands through a systematic process designed by few brilliant greedy individuals and politicians where PM Modi and his team have played a key role in. Under these new reforms, the fundamental right to go to court on contractual disputes, under article 6 and 7 of Universal declaration of human Rights (UDHR) has been taken away from the farmers.

  • Noora Kyyrö May 26, 2021 Abstract
    Lund University STVK12 Department of Political Science Supervisor: Gustav Agneman Framing for mobilization Content analysis of the Farmers protest’s social media commentary Noora Kyyrö May 26, 2021 Abstract This study examines collective action frames visible in the social media commentary of the ongoing Farmers’ protest in India. It addresses the theoretical and critical questions about social media’s role in the 21st century social movements as well as how framing contributes to mobilization and overcoming the collective action problem. Previous studies have advocated both for and against using social media as a tool to encourage collective action as well as underscored the importance of framing in mobilization. In this thesis, these theoretical arguments are combined and social media’s applicability for discussing collective action frames is analysed. The content analysis of 1400 comments on the Kisan Ekta Morcha’s Facebook page indicates that social media sites can offer opportunities for the general public to engage themselves in the mobilization task of social movements through framing of societal issues. These findings are especially promising for contexts where the mainstream media and/or government is known to advocate against dissident ideas.

  • Farmers' Protest: a Roadmap for the Opposition
    ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 Farmers' Protest: A Roadmap for the Opposition SATYENDRA RANJAN Satyendra Ranjan ([email protected]) is a Delhi-based journalist. Vol. 56, Issue No. 18, 01 May, 2021 The ongoing farmers’ movement in India is proving to be path-breaking in more ways than one. It has unambiguously challenged the political economy of the present Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh–Bharatiya Janata Party regime and has to a limited extent, broken the control of the RSS ecosystem on the political narrative of the country. It has also followed the path of earlier movements such as the anti-Citizenship Amendment Act protests, to present an antithesis to the ideological hegemony of the current ruling arrangement. Though this agitation has had its limitations like earlier protests, it has given hope to the strata of society opposed to the rechristening of Indian nationhood and political system. The ongoing farmers’ movement, against the three new farm laws, was already four months old when the budget session of Parliament began. Those looking forward to a debate on these three laws were disappointed when they were passed hurriedly in the monsoon session of Parliament in September 2020 and the central government refused to conduct a proper discussion on the grievances of farmers, which eventually led to such a powerful agitation. Farmers are of the view that along with the Electricity (Amendment) Bill, 2020, the three laws, namely Farmers' Produce Trade and Commerce (Promotion and Facilitation) Act, 2020, the Farmers (Empowerment and Protection) Agreement of Price Assurance and Farm Services Act, 2020, and the Essential Commodities (Amendment) Act, 2020, would be detrimental to their interests.

  • Ruptured Reality
    TIF - Ruptured Reality ANNIE ZAIDI March 5, 2021 Defiant misinformation by the Indian media has deepened the crisis of public trust | YouTube In the Indian mediascape, every mechanism through which fact is sifted from falsehood has become questionable. If news organisations do not have an ethical commitment towards factual reporting, fact-checking risks turning into mere performance. “What kind of reality does truth possess if it is powerless in the public realm?” – Hannah Arendt ‘Ankhon dekhi’, a Hindi phrase referring to an event that one has personally witnessed, was adopted as the title for a 2013 film where Bauji, the middle-aged protagonist, realises that there is a great gulf between what he was told about his daughter’s suitor and what he sees with his own eyes. Henceforth, Bauji refuses to believe anything he has not personally witnessed. He loses his job at a travel agency for he cannot reassure customers that a flight does, in fact, go to its intended destination. He refuses to believe that lions roar until he has heard one roaring. This tragi-comic film is predicated on the practical limits of an individual quest for truth. Society delegates this task to reliable agents: journalists, investigators, and increasingly, recording devices. In the 21st century, however, we find that not only are our human narrators unreliable, we cannot even trust the evidence of devices. Images, video and audio clips are new tools for discombobulation. Take an old video, ascribe to it a new location, and voila! Falsehood emerges, harder and more resilient than truth. Page 1 www.TheIndiaForum.in March 5, 2021 India and the (mis)information superhighway India is one of the world’s more misinformation prone nations.

  • Transcript for Punjabi Farmers Protests and Historic March to Delhi
    Transcript for Punjabi Farmers Protests and Historic March to Delhi Welcome to the webinar about Punjabi Farmers Protests and Historic March to Delhi. For the Punjabi Farmers, this protest is extremely detrimental to their lives and to their livelihood. As this issue came into the forefront, we asked our panelists to speak on it, and they kindly obliged. Even with the short duration. I sincerely thank them for their willingness to be on this panel and for their time. I also want to thank our partner, South Asian-Americans Leading Together (SALT) for supporting this webinar and for their work around this issue. I would now like to introduce our incredible moderator, Navraaz Kaur Basati. Navraaz is from the Chicagoland area, and has a background in film production and radio, specifically for non-profit organizations and currently works in the field of conservation, food security and regenerative agriculture. Navraaz? Navraaz: Thank you Kiran and SALDEF for this opportunity for all of us to be able to expand our knowledge on the current situation on the farmers’ protest taking place in India. Before we begin, I’d like to set some expectations and parameters for this session. We will be focusing primarily on the topics that each speaker is presenting on. I’d like to ask the audience that they submit their questions to the Q&A box or the chat box and we will do our best to address those questions within our time constraints at the end of the session. We will also be providing contact information for our speakers so that you can direct questions to them in the future.
