RESPONDENT: Anand Patwardhan & Anr. DATE OF JUDGMENT: 25/08/2006 BENCH: Dr. AR. Lakshmanan & Lokeshwar Singh Panta JUDGMENT: J U D G M E N T Dr. AR. Lakshmanan, J. The appellant in the present matter is Doordarshan who have decided not to telecast the documentary film made by the respondent titled "Father, son and Holy War". The respondent is a filmmaker. The respondent no.1 in 1995 submitted his documentary film, "Father, son and Holy War", to the appellant for telecast on National network Doordarshan. Respondent no.1 was to provide a U-matic Certificate for the same to be aired by Doordarshan. The documentary film was in two parts, the film dealt with social realities and issues such as patriarchy, violence, fundamentalism, suppression of women etc. Part-I was given 'U' Certificate and Part-II was given 'A' Certificate by the Censor Board. A few lines about the film and the producer:- Father, Son and Holy War is the third part of a trilogy of documentary films against communal violence that the author made from the mid 1980's to the mid 1990's. His two earlier films In Memory of Friends (1990) (on building communal peace in strife torn Punjab) and Ram Ke Naam/In the Name of God (1992) (on the Ayodhya crisis) looked at the question of class and caste. Both films won National Awards but both were rejected by Doordarshan on the grounds that they would create law and order problems.

    United Nations A/HRC/46/NGO/139 General Assembly Distr.: General 23 March 2021 English only Human Rights Council Forty-sixth session 22 February–19 March 2021 Agenda item 4 Human rights situations that require the Council’s attention Written statement* submitted by World Organisation Against Torture, a non-governmental organization in special consultative status The Secretary-General has received the following written statement which is circulated in accordance with Economic and Social Council resolution 1996/31. [1 February 2021] * Issued as received, in the language(s) of submission only. GE.21-03895(E) A/HRC/46/NGO/139 India: Deteriorating situation of Scheduled Caste and Scheduled Tribes The World Organisation Against Torture wishes to draw the Human Rights Council’s attention to the deteriorating situation for Scheduled Castes (SCs) and Scheduled Tribes (STs) in India, who occupy the lowest strata in the caste-based social order and together comprise more than one-fourth of the country’s population1. While the debilitating impact of the pandemic on the lives and livelihoods of SCs and STs is still unfolding, official data also indicate a rising trend of atrocities against SC/STs and a sharp spike in the judicial harassment of Dalit leaders and human rights defenders (HRDs) through draconian laws. Atrocities committed against SCs and STs Data released by the National Crime Records Bureau (NCRB) in 2020 showed that while the number of cases registered across the country under SCs and STs (Prevention Of Atrocities (PoA)) Act and the Protection of Civil Rights (PCR) Act rose from 49,321 in 2018 to 54,192 in 2019, the rate of conviction remained extremely low – at 32.1 percent for SCs and 26.4 percent for STs; trial in more than 90 percent cases was pending at the end of 2019, and violations against SCs and STs spanned grievous hurt, molestation, rape, murder and arson.

Barton (2018) "Reason (Vivek)," Journal of Religion & Film: Vol. 22 : Iss. 2 , Article 13. Available at: https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/jrf/vol22/iss2/13 This Toronto International Film Festival Review is brought to you for free and open access by DigitalCommons@UNO. It has been accepted for inclusion in Journal of Religion & Film by an authorized editor of DigitalCommons@UNO. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Reason (Vivek) Abstract This is a film review of Reason (Vivek) (2018), directed by Anand Patwardhan. Keywords Hinduism, Islam, Rationalism, Right Wing This toronto international film festival review is available in Journal of Religion & Film: https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/jrf/ vol22/iss2/13 Scott: Reason (Vivek) Reason (Vivek) (2018), dir. Anand Patwardhan A new film by Anand Patwardhan is a major event. Not only is Patwardhan arguably India’s leading documentarian, a multi-award-winning filmmaker of global acclaim. His films are also epic in their scope, ambition—and length. Reason, in its TIFF release, clocks in at four hours and twenty minutes long. Watching it is an immersive experience, and one not quickly forgotten. Patwardhan is best known for tracking the rise of the Hindu right in films such as Ram ke Naam (In the Name of God) (1992) and Father, Son, and Holy War (1995). With 2011’s Jai Bhim Comrade, he turned his attention to Dalit activism, especially in western India (“Dalit” is the preferred term for the groups formerly known as “Untouchables”).

  • The Poetry with Prakriti Festival (2013)
    The Poetry with Prakriti Festival (2013) About Poetry Festival 2013 ‘Poetry with Prakriti’ is an annual festival featuring 25 eminent and emerging poets, each presenting four different readings of their poems to small, intimate audiences at several venues across the city – schools, colleges, cafes, IT parks, green public parks, shops, galleries, boutiques, banks and other commercial establishments. The festival is scheduled everywhere, to coincide with the famed ‘Chennai Season’. The aim of the Poetry with Prakriti festival is to get poets from varied backgrounds to read and share their poetry in various languages at different locations across the city. This allows multiple groups of people to enjoy creative expression rendered through poetry. Over the years, we have presented 200 poets from across India, and from countries such as Spain, France, Canada, U.K, Denmark, Switzerland and the U.S.A. This festival has featured poets such as Keki N.Daruwalla, Charles Stein (USA), Arundhathi Subramaniam, Denis Mai R(USA), Sudeep Sen, Priya Sarukkai Chabria, Bina Sarkar Ellias, Anne-Marie Kenessey (Switzerland) Kalki Subramaniam, Parvathi Nayar, Renuka Narayan, Anupama Raju, Jeremy Woodruff, Raghavendra Madhu, to name a few. As part of the festival, a Poetry Slam Contest has been conducted in the past. The top three poems are awarded cash prizes. As one newspaper review stated: “It’s a quiet revolution but certainly one that is gaining momentum.” It is a practical attempt to make poetry available and for everyone rather than it being a privilege for just a few. This festival aims to liberate poetry from being condemned as elitist, obscure or abstract.

  • Techniques of Establishing Credibility and Eliciting Impact in Documentary Films: Two Case Studies
    TECHNIQUES OF ESTABLISHING CREDIBILITY AND ELICITING IMPACT IN DOCUMENTARY FILMS: TWO CASE STUDIES DR. LAXMAN DHARMARAJ JOGDAND Head, Dept. of English, Mahatma Gandhi Mahavidyalaya, Ahmedpur Dist- Latur. Maharashtra -413515. (MS) INDIA A documentary like other film must be considered in terms of production, distribution and its potential impact on producers, participants, activists and decision makers. Its success lies in its capability of creating and sustaining alternative discourse. A documentary film primarily aims at eliciting appropriate impact and establishes credibility. Credibility is at the core of a documentary film. Among many strategies of authenticating the narrative, use of real people, archival of Photographs, interviews with ‘Experts’ and ‘Eyewitness’, and real footage events help in establishing credibility to a higher degree. Authoritative narrator does not form essential characteristic feature of documentary. Unlike its fictional counterparts, documentaries demand hard efforts and deeper research on the topic. Use of real people, emotional appeal, exclusivity, and familiarity contribute to elicit immediate and appropriate impact of the viewers. These are the strategic tools used by filmmakers to gain viewer’s support. Anand Patwardhan’s Jai Bhim Comrade (2011) and Atul Pethe’s Kachra Kondi or The Garbage Trap – Sanitary Workers of Indian Cities (2012) are popular Marathi Documentaries locating the lives of Dalits in Maharashtra. Jai Bhim Comrade records police violence in 1997 and explores various aspects of lives of politics of Dalit people in Mumbai. It was produced over fourteen years, and finally released in 2011 after the conclusion of court trials consequential to “Ramabai incident”. Ruthless suppression of Dalit movement under organised political and social influences forms its core thematic concern.

They are being held in Mumbai, India and are at risk of torture or other ill-treatment.

On 17 April 2011 they were two of 15 people charged by the police under India’s principal anti-terror legislation of being members of, and supporting and recruiting people for, the Communist Party of India (Maoist) - a banned armed group fighting for more than a decade to overthrow elected governments in several Indian states. They also faced several criminal charges including extortion, forgery and impersonation. Seven people were arrested, while the others – including Sheetal Sathe and Sachin Mali, who are married to each other – could not be traced by the police until earlier this month.
