India Today State of the States Conclave INDIA TODAY STATE OF THE STATES CONCLAVE Good morning Ladies & Gentlemen. Welcome to the eighth edition of the India Today State of the States Conclave. I request all our delegates, all our guests to kindly take your seats in the audience. We are ready to go once there is chorum. I request once again all our guests, our delegates to kindly take your seats in the audience. Welcome to the eighth edition of the India Today’s State of the States Conclave. The Conclave was instituted back in 2003. It is India’s first ever ranking of the best and worst States to live in and work in. It is the premier indicator. It has become over the years premier indicator of which states in India have made the best use of liberalization and which are the ones that have fallen behind. It is an extensive study based on various parameters undertaken by economist Dr. Bibek Debroy and Laveesh Bhandari from Indicus. My name is Zakka Jacob. I am your host for the India Today State of the States Conclave and on behalf of the India Today family I would like to welcome each and every one of you to this morning’s function. May I now invite the Chairman and Editor-in-Chief of the India Today group Mr. Aroon Purie for the welcome address. Mr. Purie, please. Aroon Purie Hon’ble Chief Ministers, Ladies & Gentlemen, Good Morning and welcome to eighth India Today State of the States Conclave. When we first came out with State of States Report in 2003, it was more than an innovative idea. It was part of an ongoing effort to make our journalism more participative and more collaborative. Then we were already into the second year of the India Today Conclave which is an international event in ideas and the first of its kind in journalism in India. By the State of States Reports, another first in Indian journalism, we wanted to create the gold standard for governance. We thought we needed more than conventional reporting to do that. At a time when perception overshadowed reality; when propaganda buried facts, we wanted to create a foolproof method to measure performance and governance. To do the job, we roped in two fine economists. They created a method, which I am proud to say is today the most accurate, objective and credible way to assess the performance of the States. Their study is based on each States performance in infrastructure, governance, health, education, investment, macro-economy, consumer markets and agriculture. I must take this opportunity to stress on the most important aspect of our study, objectivity. It is this religious adherence to objectivity that delivers credibility and acceptability. Our methodology is transparent and auditable. The study is hundred per cent based on performance data without even a hint of subjectivity. Our experts, Professor Bibek Debroy and Laveesh Bhandari are in fact present here and will be happy to clarify any doubts or misplaced notions. Our aim is to present our readers and the nation with a complete picture of where the States stand in terms of performance. In an age of sound bites and instant judgment our study provides the most definitive progress report on performance. With great pleasure and gratitude I want to say that it has been taken so by the Chief Ministers themselves. The presence of so many of them, all brand ambassadors of change, is a tribute to the credibility of the Report. It is an honour too. Their support and participation make the effort all the more worthwhile. One thing is for sure that India is constantly changing. So every year the State of States Report has some surprises. I won’t disclose the winners of the various awards but just that there are new challengers to those who have been sitting, somewhat complacently, on top. The slow and steady rise of Himachel Pradesh is a story in quiet determination. Interestingly States like Uttarakhand and Jammu & Kashmir have shown great result in investment. Surprisingly, Punjab, Goa, Haryana, Karnataka and Gujarat are lagging. In macro-economy, Jammu & Kashmir, Haryana and Punjab have shown notable improvement, though there is much to be expected from big States like Bihar, Uttar Pradesh and Madhya Pradesh. In infrastructure, Tamil Nadu has registered a commendable rise from the sixth to the second. In primary education, there is still much to be desired from Uttar Pradesh, Bihar, and even Delhi. The role models are still Himachel Pradesh, Kerala and Sikkim. In governance, I think it is time to give our comrades some credit. West Bengal has jumped from last year’s miserable twentieth position to respectable fifteen this year. This is a great leap forward indeed and Kerala is going strong and far ahead. In primary health, Bihar may still have a long way to go, but it is catching up. And it is some good news for a State which is still at the bottom in its overall performance. Another big surprise is from Gujarat, a State that never ceases to surprise us, and now- a-days with news, about governance. It was for so long the most investive friendly State in the country, but now Gujarat is on the rise in the agriculture sector too. Ladies and Gentlemen, every year to bring a sense of immediacy and urgency to the Report, we add a new category. This year we have focused on a subject that poses the biggest threat from within to our national security, the Maoists insurgency. We have done an exhaustive study of the socio-economic and the law and orders situation in seventy-two Naxal affected districts, spread across nine States. The study assumes greater significance because the country seems to be at a loss in coming out with a clear minded policy on the bloodiest war within. The collaboration of the Center and the State to tackle this dangerous problem is of paramount importance. Taken together, our Report is more than a reflection of the State of the States. It is, if I may say so, is the State of the Nation. It is a portrait of a country where the ruler can no longer win by words, but by actions that can make a difference to the lives of the people for the better; where the winner is not the manipulator of massed minds, but action heroes for whom development is not a slogan, but an article of faith; where good politics is all about good governance; where retrick is not an alternative to performance. This Report comes at a time when India’s international aspiration to become a global power is at its peak. But we need more than seat at the Security Council. We need to make better roads; we need to make primary education accessible to all our children; we need to make health care accessible to all. In short, we need to make development the national religion of the political class. India is not built from Delhi alone. The real work takes place in the States. We have with us the Chief Ministers, whom I would like to call the ‘Makers of Modern India’ in the two panel discussions we have planned focusing on development resources and dealing with Maoists insurgency. I am sure they will enlighten us with their ideas of how we can govern better. Let me welcome you all once more. I am particularly grateful to the Chief Ministers, all winners and performers, who have joined us in our endeavour to make the India Today’s Sate of States Report a blueprint for effective governance. Thank you Sir. Zakka Jacob Thank you Mr. Purie. Like the Prime Minister said, if India has to achieve nine per cent growth, year on year / year after year, then the fulcrum of that growth has to be India’s states. And one of the critical issues which face our States is the issue of infrastructure. Now for a special presentation on Infrastructure Security, a new paradigm for accelerated development, may I call upon the Managing Director and the CEO of IL&FS, Mr. Hari Sankaran. Ladies & Gentlemen, Mr. Hari Sankaran. Hari Sankaran Hon’ble Chief Ministers, Ladies & Gentlemen, a very Good Morning. This is a presentation, a very brief one, to outline a particular model which we believe provides a platform for the accelerated development of regions under severe security threat and where the developmental outcomes have not as yet reached. There are three challenges in a global sense that are facing this country. The first is that India’s urban incomes growing at more than six times faster than rural incomes, which in itself is putting huge pressures on the way in which our demography and our geographies work. One instance of it is that we forecast four hundred million Indians to move from rural India to urban India in the next thirty years. The already strained infrastructure of our cities will simply be unable to cope with this challenge. What is our response and what is the infrastructure that is required to be put in place to handle this crisis? Related to that are health issues, environmental issues, issues of skills, of employment and of overall development as a result of that. On the back of this kind of crisis, it is very difficult to see how a nine per cent strategy of growth can be sustained. And, therefore, it is critical that we find a solution to this problem in a integrated and holistic sense. And, therefore, the challenge is to find a way in which urbanization can be handled in this country, but perhaps much more importantly in the context of today’s debate, how we handle the issue of security, because rural India is exploding with frustration and lack of growth.

  • Red Bengal's Rise and Fall
    kheya bag RED BENGAL’S RISE AND FALL he ouster of West Bengal’s Communist government after 34 years in power is no less of a watershed for having been widely predicted. For more than a generation the Party had shaped the culture, economy and society of one of the most Tpopulous provinces in India—91 million strong—and won massive majorities in the state assembly in seven consecutive elections. West Bengal had also provided the bulk of the Communist Party of India– Marxist (cpm) deputies to India’s parliament, the Lok Sabha; in the mid-90s its Chief Minister, Jyoti Basu, had been spoken of as the pos- sible Prime Minister of a centre-left coalition. The cpm’s fall from power also therefore suggests a change in the equation of Indian politics at the national level. But this cannot simply be read as a shift to the right. West Bengal has seen a high degree of popular mobilization against the cpm’s Beijing-style land grabs over the past decade. Though her origins lie in the state’s deeply conservative Congress Party, the challenger Mamata Banerjee based her campaign on an appeal to those dispossessed and alienated by the cpm’s breakneck capitalist-development policies, not least the party’s notoriously brutal treatment of poor peasants at Singur and Nandigram, and was herself accused by the Communists of being soft on the Maoists. The changing of the guard at Writers’ Building, the seat of the state gov- ernment in Calcutta, therefore raises a series of questions. First, why West Bengal? That is, how is it that the cpm succeeded in establishing

  • Khalistan & Kashmir: a Tale of Two Conflicts
    123 Matthew Webb: Khalistan & Kashmir Khalistan & Kashmir: A Tale of Two Conflicts Matthew J. Webb Petroleum Institute _______________________________________________________________ While sharing many similarities in origin and tactics, separatist insurgencies in the Indian states of Punjab and Jammu and Kashmir have followed remarkably different trajectories. Whereas Punjab has largely returned to normalcy and been successfully re-integrated into India’s political and economic framework, in Kashmir diminished levels of violence mask a deep-seated antipathy to Indian rule. Through a comparison of the socio- economic and political realities that have shaped the both regions, this paper attempts to identify the primary reasons behind the very different paths that politics has taken in each state. Employing a distinction from the normative literature, the paper argues that mobilization behind a separatist agenda can be attributed to a range of factors broadly categorized as either ‘push’ or ‘pull’. Whereas Sikh separatism is best attributed to factors that mostly fall into the latter category in the form of economic self-interest, the Kashmiri independence movement is more motivated by ‘push’ factors centered on considerations of remedial justice. This difference, in addition to the ethnic distance between Kashmiri Muslims and mainstream Indian (Hindu) society, explains why the politics of separatism continues in Kashmir, but not Punjab. ________________________________________________________________ Introduction Of the many separatist insurgencies India has faced since independence, those in the states of Punjab and Jammu and Kashmir have proven the most destructive and potent threats to the country’s territorial integrity. Ostensibly separate movements, the campaigns for Khalistan and an independent Kashmir nonetheless shared numerous similarities in origin and tactics, and for a brief time were contemporaneous.

Signposts of fractures gone too far with too little remedy. Arundhati Roy in conversation with Shoma Chaudhury on the violence rending our heartland There is an atmosphere of growing violence across the country. How do you read the signs? In what context should it be read? You don’t have to be a genius to read the signs. We have a growing middle class, reared on a diet of radical consumerism and aggressive greed. Unlike industrialising Western countries, which had colonies from which to plunder resources and generate slave labour to feed this process, we have to colonise ourselves, our own nether parts. We’ve begun to eat our own limbs. The greed that is being generated (and marketed as a value interchangeable with nationalism) can only be sated by grabbing land, water and resources from the vulnerable. What we’re witnessing is the most successful secessionist struggle ever waged in independent India — the secession of the middle and upper classes from the rest Singur and of the country. It’s a vertical secession, not a lateral one. They’re fighting for the Nandigram right to merge with the world’s elite somewhere up there in the stratosphere. make you They’ve managed to commandeer the resources, the coal, the minerals, the wonder — is bauxite, the water and electricity. Now they want the land to make more cars, more the last stop bombs, more mines — supertoys for the new supercitizens of the new superpower.

I welcome you to the magnum opus of this year’s PMUNC, The JCC: East Pakistan Crisis. My name is Prateek Swain and I will be your chair for the India committee. First, I’ll introduce myself; I will be starting my sophomore year at Princeton and will be majoring in Economics or Woodrow Wilson School of Public Policy (depending on my mood when I have to declare) with a certificate in computer science. I have been debating as well as participating/chairing MUNs since my sophomore year of high school, and have carried on with these endeavors in college. Last year I was the Director for the Korean Reunification Committee at PMUNC, so I’m naturally extremely excited to be chairing this committee and have full faith that it will be a great experience for both you and me. This is certainly not my first crisis, but perhaps the one closest to my heart. Last semester, I took one of those eye opening classes at Princeton on Human Rights with Rebecca (Chair of the Pakistan committee) which set the foundation for this JCC to come into existence.

  • 4 Patrimonial and Programmatic Talking About Democracy in a South Indian Village
    4 Patrimonial and Programmatic Talking about Democracy in a South Indian Village PAMELA PRICE AND DUSI SRINIVAS How do people in India participate politically, as citizens, clients and/or subjects?1 This query appears in various forms in ongoing debates concerning the extent and nature of civil society, the pitfalls of patronage democracy, and the role of illegal- ity in political practice, to name a few of the several concerns about political spheres in India. A focus for discussion has been the relationship of civil society institutions (with associated principles of equality and fairness) to political spheres driven mainly by political parties and to what Partha Chatterjee desig- nated as ‘political society’.2 Since 2005, with the publication of the monograph, Seeing the State: Governance and Governmentality in India (Corbridge et al.), there is growing support for the argument that political cultures and practices in India, from place to place and time to time, to greater and lesser degrees, include 1. Thanks to those who commented on earlier drafts of this piece when it was presented at the Department of Political Science at the University of Hyderabad, the South Asia Symposium in Oslo, and at the workshop ‘Practices and Experiences of Democracy in Post-colonial Locali- ties’, part of the conference, ‘Democracy as Idea and Practice’ organized by the University of Oslo. We are grateful to K.C. Suri for suggesting the term ‘programmatic’ in our discussions of the findings here.

  • Naxalism in India Naxalism
    Best Personal Counseling & Guidance about SSB Contact - R S Rathore @ 9001262627 visit us - www.targetssbinterview.com Naxalism in India The word Naxal, Naxalite or Naksalvadi is a generic term used to refer to militant Communist groups operating in different parts of India under different organizational envelopes. In the eastern states of the mainland India (Bihar, West Bengal and Orissa), they are usually known as, or refer to themselves as Maoists while in southern states like Kerala they are known under other titles. They have been declared as a terrorist organization under the Unlawful Activities (Prevention) Act of India (1967). The term 'Naxal' derives from the name of the village Naxalbari in the state of West Bengal, India, where the movement had its origin. The Naxals are considered far-left radical communists, supportive of Maoist political sentiment and ideology. Their origin can be traced to the split in 1967 of the Communist Party of India (Marxist), leading to the formation of the Communist Party of India (Marxist–Leninist). Initially the movement had its centre in West Bengal. In later years, it spread into less developed areas of rural central and eastern India, such as Chhattisgarh, Orissa and Andhra Pradesh through the activities of underground groups like the Communist Party of India (Maoist). As of 2009, Naxalites were active across approximately 220 districts in twenty states of India accounting for about 40 percent of India's geographical area, They are especially concentrated in an area known as the "Red corridor", where they control 92,000 square kilometers. According to India's intelligence agency, the Research and Analysis Wing, 20,000 armed cadre Naxalites were operating in addition to 50,000 regular cadres and their growing influence prompted Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to declare them to be the most serious internal threat to India's national security.

Arunachal has attained ODF status much before the national deadline of October 2, 2019. This was made possible as under Swachh Bharat Mission (Gramin) - SBM (G), Arunachal Pradesh State government offered an incentive of Rs 8000 per toilet. This amount is in addition to the Central Government’s support of Rs 12000 per toilet, thereby raising the total grant for constructing a toilet to Rs 20000.

  • Democracy and the Politics of Social Citizenship in India
    Democracy and the Politics of Social Citizenship in India by Anil Mathew Varughese A thesis submitted in conformity with the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Political Science University of Toronto © Copyright by Anil Mathew Varughese (2013) DEMOCRACY AND THE POLITICS OF SOCIAL CITIZENSHIP IN INDIA Anil Mathew Varughese Doctor of Philosophy Graduate Department of Political Science University of Toronto 2013 Abstract Why do some pro-poor democracies in global South enact generous and universal social policies accompanied by empowering outcomes while others, similar in many ways, do not? If lower-class integration and programmatic commitment steers policy outcomes to be more egalitarian, what explains the variance in redistributive commitment within the cluster of radical democracies? These questions are examined in the context of two celebrated cases of pro-poor reform in the developing world: the Indian states of Kerala and West Bengal. Despite a host of similar background conditions (democratic framework, programmatic political parties, strong labor unions, and a high degree of subordinate-class integration), the cases display considerable variation in their redistributive commitment. Using the comparative-historical method, this dissertation seeks to explain the variance. It argues that the welfare divergences of Kerala and West Bengal are a function of their divergent modes of lower-class integration. In Kerala, a radical-mobilizational mode of ii lower-class integration has organized the poorer sections of the working classes—landless laborers and informal sector workers—in autonomous class organizations. This has enabled them to vigorously assert their interests within the working-class movement and harness state power to advance their interests through a wide range of legislative protections and statutory entitlements.
