As news media plays an important role in shaping people’s preferences and policy outcomes, it is luring for the rich to use it to their advantage (Petrova, 2008). The vast persuasive power of news media enthralls all: be it governments (Enikolopov, Petrova, & Zhuravskaya, 2011), non-government organizations (Zhang & Swartz, 2009), or business corporations (Gambaro & Puglisi, 2010; Reuter & Zitzewitz, 2006), each uses news media for furthering their causes (Schudson, 2003, pp. 16-32). Unfortunately, in economies with weak democratic institutions, the rich and the powerful use news media’s power of indoctrination of beliefs through selective or inaccurate information to further propel themselves up the ladder (Mcmillan & Zoido, 2004); in effect, deepening the inequality. Cross-institutional reality monitoring is a decisive feature of any society and news media plays a critical role in this monitoring process (Johnson, 1998, 2007).

  • PRI Elections in Jharkhand: Making Women Count
    38 PRI Elections in Jharkhand: Making Women Count SHACHI SETH Taking their place as representatives in PRIs, women in villages take the first step to strengthening rural populations by fighting for their rights and working towards development, self-sufficiency and equality As the oldest system of local governance in the nation, Panchayati Raj Institutions (PRIs) have held a traditional stronghold in the village life of India. Chiefly regarded as the space for conflict resolution and maintenance of order at the village level, these institutions were the receptacles of the Gandhian dream of Swaraj, or self- governance. As India embraced modernity in its institutions, PRIs were moulded to fit an agenda that went beyond mere arbitration and guidance. PRIs have undergone changes in terms of the process of choosing members, their duties and roles. In the current socio-political context, the chief objective of democratic states is development. Institutions of local governance, therefore, become crucial for addressing issues of the rural population, especially as decentralization becomes a buzzword in search of good governance. In Jharkhand, Panchayati Raj elections were held for the first time in 2011 although the state was formed in 2000. There was a surge in political participation by women and 56 per cent of the seats were won by women. The number of victorious women exceeded the 50 per cent that is reserved for them—a sign of encouragement for those working to better their lives. 39 The second elections, the results citizens, and to make choices The workshops of which were declared recently that benefit the community in conducted by PRADAN (2015), became an impetus the long run.

  • JMM, Congress Wins By-Poll, Retain Dumka and Bermo Assembly Seats
    Jmm, Congress Wins By-Poll, Retain Dumka And Bermo Assembly Seats In Jharkhand Ranchi: Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) and Congress won the assembly by-poll in Jharkhand; retained Dumka and Bermo assembly seats. The JMM candidate Basant Soren defeated the BJP’s Lois Marandi in Dumka with around a margin of 6842 votes. While Kumar Jaimangal (Anup Singh) of Indian National Congress defeated Yogeshwar Mahto ‘Batul’ in Bermo assembly seat by 14225 votes. The by-elections in Jharkhand were necessitated after Hemant Soren vacated Dumka’s seat to retain his Barhait constituency. Soren contested the last assembly election on two seats and recorded victory on both seats. Meanwhile, Bermo’s seat got vacant after Rajendra Singh the sitting MLA, died due to health issues. Notably, Basant Soren is the younger brother of Chief Minister Hemant Soren, won the Dumka seat by more than 6500 votes. Jmm Chief Shifted To Medanta Hospital Gurugram For Treatment Ranchi: Jharkhand Mukti Morcha (JMM) chief Shibu Soren left for New Delhi for better treatment in Medanta Hospital, Gurugram on Tuesday.

  • Strong Showing by BJP in Maharashtra and Haryana
    ISAS Insights No. 266 – 24 October 2014 Institute of South Asian Studies National University of Singapore 29 Heng Mui Keng Terrace #08-06 (Block B) Singapore 119620 Tel: (65) 6516 4239 Fax: (65) 6776 7505 www.isas.nus.edu.sg http://southasiandiaspora.org Strong Showing by BJP in Maharashtra and Haryana Ronojoy Sen1 The results of the latest Assembly elections in the Indian states of Maharashtra and Haryana have not come as a surprise. Given the performance of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in the two states in the 2014 national election, it was expected that the BJP would emerge as the single largest party in both states. But the number of seats won by the party and the decimation of the Congress, which was in power in both Maharashtra and Haryana, surprised many. In Maharashtra, the BJP, which contested on its own for the first time in 25 years, won 123 seats in the 288-member Assembly, up from 46 seats in 2009; in Haryana the jump was even more dramatic for the BJP from 4 out of 90 seats in 2009 to 47 seats. The decline for the Congress was equally steep. In Maharashtra the Congress’s seat tally nearly halved from 82 in 2009 to 42 while in Haryana it fell from 40 to 15. Since the BJP won an outright majority in Haryana, it has wasted no time in appointing Manohar Lal Khattar, a first-time MLA (Member of Legislative Assembly) and an active member of the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), as Chief Minister. In Maharashtra the situation is more complicated with the BJP short of an outright majority.
