  • 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

  • 01720Joya Chatterji the Spoil
    This page intentionally left blank The Spoils of Partition The partition of India in 1947 was a seminal event of the twentieth century. Much has been written about the Punjab and the creation of West Pakistan; by contrast, little is known about the partition of Bengal. This remarkable book by an acknowledged expert on the subject assesses partition’s huge social, economic and political consequences. Using previously unexplored sources, the book shows how and why the borders were redrawn, as well as how the creation of new nation states led to unprecedented upheavals, massive shifts in population and wholly unexpected transformations of the political landscape in both Bengal and India. The book also reveals how the spoils of partition, which the Congress in Bengal had expected from the new boundaries, were squan- dered over the twenty years which followed. This is an original and challenging work with findings that change our understanding of parti- tion and its consequences for the history of the sub-continent. JOYA CHATTERJI, until recently Reader in International History at the London School of Economics, is Lecturer in the History of Modern South Asia at Cambridge, Fellow of Trinity College, and Visiting Fellow at the LSE. She is the author of Bengal Divided: Hindu Communalism and Partition (1994). Cambridge Studies in Indian History and Society 15 Editorial board C. A.

  • DANGER to DEMOCRACY in INDIA Dilip Bose
    59 DANGER TO DEMOCRACY IN INDIA Dilip Bose LEGALLY constituted, constitutionally valid and elected on A a majority basis government has been thrown out of office in an authoritarian manner by a fiat from the Governor of the state (called province under the old British raj) of West Bengal, for the simple crime that this government, called the United Front (UF) government, dared bring about a certain measure of relief and radical measures to ameliorate, at least partially, the almost intoler- able conditions under sky-rocketing prices of foodstuff and other essential commodities, consequent on widespread blackmarketing and corruption. But there is a method by which the ruling Congress party at the Centre is trying to oust not only the Left government in West Bengal but also other non-Congress governments in other states. A government run by the Indian monopolists in collaboration with foreign imperialist interests is resorting to the good old method of purchasing votes of weak and vacillating members of the State Assembly (i.e. the provincial legislature responsible for the govern- ance of the state in general, except of course foreign, defence and such other Central matters) and other Tammany Hall tactics of nepotism, jobbery and corruption. The broadest democratic opinion and all the parties of the Left, inside and outside the Assembly, are fighting back to assert the basic tenets and rules of parliamentary democracy and on its outcome depends the future of democracy and democratic institutions in India. Three state governments have been toppled—Manipur, Haryana and West Bengal—and the difference in approach demonstrates the very quandary of the ruling Congress party at the Centre (i.e.

  • “Sex Workers Meet Law Makers” 1St March 2011, Constitution Club, New Delhi
    “Sex Workers Meet Law Makers” 1st March 2011, Constitution Club, New Delhi Background India is home to an estimated 12.63 lakh female sex workers. In addition, there are considerable numbers of male and transgender persons engaging in sex work. The last two decades has seen the emergence of sex workers’ collectives, mobilizing around health, education, livelihood and social security, and protection from violence. To illustrate, sex workers’ in Kolkata have developed the renowned peer education model of prevention of HIV, built schools for their children’s education and opened banks and credit facilities to reduce indebtedness. In Mysore, sex workers run a popular restaurant, dispelling the social stigma attached to sex work. In Bengaluru, sex workers have formed a trade union and are demanding labour standards. Sex workers in Sangli use film and theatre medium of ‘Sangli Talkies’ to articulate their experiences to the world at large. Across the country, sex workers’ are asserting themselves in public spaces and claiming equal opportunity before law. While the above examples mark a welcome break from disempowerment, sex workers’ efforts to improve their lives are obscured by criminalization. Prostitution per se is not illegal but sex workers’ are restrained under the Immoral Traffic (Prevention) Act, 1956 (ITPA) with dangerous consequences for the health, safety, livelihood and protection of sex workers. Between 2005-2009, sex workers engaged with Members of Parliament (MPs), including the then Minister of Women and Child Development, senior officials from the National AIDS Control Organisation and the Ministry of Health, the Parliamentary Standing Committee on Women and Child Development and the Forum of Parliamentarians on HIV and AIDS to share their concerns on the proposed amendments to ITPA.
