  • Growing Cleavages in India? Evidence from the Changing Structure of Electorates, 1962-2014
    WID.world WORKING PAPER N° 2019/05 Growing Cleavages in India? Evidence from the Changing Structure of Electorates, 1962-2014 Abhijit Banerjee Amory Gethin Thomas Piketty March 2019 Growing Cleavages in India? Evidence from the Changing Structure of Electorates, 1962-2014 Abhijit Banerjee, Amory Gethin, Thomas Piketty* January 16, 2019 Abstract This paper combines surveys, election results and social spending data to document the long-run evolution of political cleavages in India. From a dominant- party system featuring the Indian National Congress as the main actor of the mediation of political conflicts, Indian politics have gradually come to include a number of smaller regionalist parties and, more recently, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). These changes coincide with the rise of religious divisions and the persistence of strong caste-based cleavages, while education, income and occupation play little role (controlling for caste) in determining voters’ choices. We find no evidence that India’s new party system has been associated with changes in social policy. While BJP-led states are generally characterized by a smaller social sector, switching to a party representing upper castes or upper classes has no significant effect on social spending. We interpret this as evidence that voters seem to be less driven by straightforward economic interests than by sectarian interests and cultural priorities. In India, as in many Western democracies, political conflicts have become increasingly focused on identity and religious-ethnic conflicts

  • Char Dham Project Is a Two-Lane Highway Project Currently Under Construction in the State of Uttarakhand by the Border Road Organisation

Upon the completion of the project, it will connect the four important pilgrim towns of Badrinath, Kedarnath, Gangotri and Yamunotri.

The highway construction project is called as Char Dham Mahamarg Vikas Pariyojana and its aim is to improve the connectivity to the Chota Char Dham. The Chota Char Dham itself is a pilgrim circuit nestled in the Himalayas. The highway project will also be will have railway links and several long bridges and tunnels to eliminate accident and slide prone areas Some more facts about the Char Dham Project is given in the table below: Char Dham Highway Project Total Length of the Highway 719 North End Mana South End Rishikesh Maintained by National Highway Authority of India Proposed Routes Rishikesh–Yamunotri Rishikesh–Gangotri Rishikesh–Kedarnath Rishikesh–Badrinath .Environmental Concerns regarding the Char Dham Project Environmentalists had pointed out that the unregulated cutting of tries and scooping up land at the base of the hills is irreversibly damaging the ecosystem as well as making the regions the project passes through dangerously prone to landslides. Although the government had given orders to the contractors to treat the slopes before moving on to the next construction point, it was found that most had not done so.

  • Himalayan Histories
    TIF - Himalayan Histories DINYAR PATEL June 4, 2021 The Himalayas have been a zone of global interactions and exchanges over the centuries, quite unlike the stereotype of remoteness and isolation. Himalaya: A Human History. Ed Douglas. (London: The Bodley Head, 2020) The Gateway to Hell, it transpires, sits on the very roof of the world. In 2007, I travelled along the Friendship Highway, which links Lhasa to Kathmandu. Nyalam — termed 'Gateway to Hell' by travellers — is the starting point for an ancient trans-Himalayan trading route following the Bhote Kosi river from Tibet into Nepal. It is also the beginning of one of the world’s most stunning zones of environmental and cultural transition. In less than 40 kilometres, the Friendship Highway catapults 2,000 metres off the Tibetan plateau. Blue skies and arid highlands give way to perpetual rain and cloud forests. The Sinic world melds into something more subcontinental. At Kodari, the border post, I had one final interaction with the Chinese state, scowling yet efficient, and then encountered the chaos of a Nepali customs office. Outside, a truckers’ union had declared a bandh and had blocked the highway to Kathmandu. Welcome to South Asia. Douglas’s account forcefully pushes against the common narrative that the Himalaya are a barrier — a perpetual abode of snow and ice shielding disparate civilisations from one another. Historically, as toponyms like Gateway to Hell testify, such zones of transition were uncomfortable and dangerous places. Yet they are at the very heart of the story of the Himalayan region. Ed Douglas’s new book, Himalaya: A Human History, demonstrates how cultures along the roof of the world have been defined by Page 1 www.TheIndiaForum.in June 4, 2021 perpetual border crossing.

  • Uttar Pradesh Warehousing and Logistics Policy 2018
    Uttar Pradesh Warehousing and Logistics Policy 2018 1. Introduction With emergence of new technologies, new customer expectations and new business models, the logistics industry is rapidly expanding round the globe. In terms of revenue, the industry is expected to expand at a CAGR of 7.5% between 2015 and 2024 (Transparency International Report, 2016). Asia Pacific is the largest and rapidly growing market in the world, with India as one of most promising markets. India’s logistics performance index ranking has been improving, and shot up by 19places to 35th position in 2016 (World Bank). The industry is expected to grow at a CAGR of 15-20% between 2016 and 2020 (CARE Ratings, 2016), and by 2019 the Indian logistics industry is expected to reach over INR 13,000 Crores. Share of freight transportation in India through road constitutes about 60% of the total freight traffic, while Rail and coastal shipping account for about 32% and 7%, respectively. Share of inland waterways transportation and air is less than 1% each1, signifying scope of expansion with development of National Waterways programme and Regional Connectivity Scheme in aviation sector. Recently, 100% FDI under automatic route for all logistics services has been allowed (except in air cargo and courier where 74% FDI is allowed). And, Goods & Services Tax (GST) is likely to bring down total costs of logistics industry. Earlier, companies had to maintain warehouses in every state due to different taxation slabs2. But with the implementation of GST, the need to have several small warehouses is likely to be mitigated in favour of larger and consolidated warehouses at strategic locations.
