  • Seeking Offense: Censorship and the Constitution of Democratic Politics in India
    SEEKING OFFENSE: CENSORSHIP AND THE CONSTITUTION OF DEMOCRATIC POLITICS IN INDIA A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Ameya Shivdas Balsekar August 2009 © 2009 Ameya Shivdas Balsekar SEEKING OFFENSE: CENSORSHIP AND THE CONSTITUTION OF DEMOCRATIC POLITICS IN INDIA Ameya Shivdas Balsekar, Ph. D. Cornell University 2009 Commentators have frequently suggested that India is going through an “age of intolerance” as writers, artists, filmmakers, scholars and journalists among others have been targeted by institutions of the state as well as political parties and interest groups for hurting the sentiments of some section of Indian society. However, this age of intolerance has coincided with a period that has also been characterized by the “deepening” of Indian democracy, as previously subordinated groups have begun to participate more actively and substantively in democratic politics. This project is an attempt to understand the reasons for the persistence of illiberalism in Indian politics, particularly as manifest in censorship practices. It argues that one of the reasons why censorship has persisted in India is that having the “right to censor” has come be established in the Indian constitutional order’s negotiation of multiculturalism as a symbol of a cultural group’s substantive political empowerment. This feature of the Indian constitutional order has made the strategy of “seeking offense” readily available to India’s politicians, who understand it to be an efficacious way to discredit their competitors’ claims of group representativeness within the context of democratic identity politics.

  • An Introspection of Film Censorship in India
    Corpus Juris ISSN: 2582-2918 The Law Journal website: www.corpusjuris.co.in AN INTROSPECTION OF FILM CENSORSHIP IN INDIA -SUBARNO BANERJEE1 AND RITOJIT DASGUPTA2 ABSTRACT Cinema has been considered to be one of the most potent instrument of expression over a considerable amount of period. It is often considered to be a magnificent medium to communicate with people and impart knowledge and awareness. A traditional theatre system existed much before screen cinema could assert its authority in India and is said to have played a major role in nurturing emotions of freedom struggle through its plays in the pre-independence era. It was in 1913 India produced its first full-length feature film Raja Harishchandra. Cinema gradually became a powerful medium and went on to impact the lives of people, thoughts and even their political views. The medium has been witnessed to gain huge popularity and at present has become an integral part of common man’s leisure. Various statistics claim that India constitutes one of the largest film industries in the world in terms of number of films produced every year. Freedom of speech and expression is one of the most sacrosanct rights and is regarded as an integral concept in modern liberal democracies3. Society can develop only by free exchange of ideas4. However, since the drafting of the Constitution in 1947, freedom of speech and expression was considered controversial and received periodical dissent. According to Article 19(1) (a) of Part III of the Constitution of India, citizens shall have a right to freedom and expression. Films enjoy the same status and right so far as constitutional freedom relating to expression of ideas and spreading of ideas and messages are concerned but at the same time it places certain necessary restrictions on the content, with a view towards maintaining integrity of the state, public order, decency and morality and also communal and religious harmony, given the history of communal tension in the nation.

  • CONTEMPORARY ISSUES in MEDIA ETHICS Boctor of $I)Tios(Opi)
    CONTEMPORARY ISSUES IN MEDIA ETHICS ABSTRACT THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE AWARD OF THE DEGREE OF Boctor of $I)tIos(opI)p IN PHILOSOPHY By MD. EHSAN Under the Supervision of M. MUQIM DEPARTMENT OF PHILOSOPHY ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY, ALIGARH (INDIA) 2009 ABSTRACT Twenty first century is the century of knowledge and information. Knowledge is the power. Media such as newspapers, radio, television, magazines, internet etc. are the primary and central source of information and knowledge of this fast moving world. Hence, media enjoys enormous power and exerts tremendous impacts on our lives. Media as a powerful institution not only disseminates information and knowledge rather it influences our lives, our political systems and our society as a whole. It shapes our opinions, beliefs, attitudes and behaviours. It affects our decision and judgment about family, home, education, institution etc. through information and knowledge it provides. So much so that it fashions our tastes and moral standards, and socializes our younger generation. Furthermore, media has got important role to play in democracy. It is media which helps democracy become 'of and 'by' the people. It wheels democracy. It facilitates democracy by making interaction between the governed and the governor. Moreover, it is considered to be the back bone as well as the fourth pillar of democracy. * I am using media as a singular noun In view of the enormous power implicit in media, its tremendous impacts on our lives and on our governing systems, and in view of its deep penetration in our society the need arises to use it with great caution and control.

  • Universiteit Antwerpen Faculteit Politieke En Sociale Wetenschappen Academiejaar 2013-2014
    Universiteit Antwerpen Faculteit Politieke en Sociale Wetenschappen Academiejaar 2013-2014 MASTERPROEF FROM WHITE DEVIL TO WHITE EMANCIPATOR Representation of white Western women in Indian cinema Lisa van der Waal Master in de Filmstudies en de Visuele Cultuur Promotor: Prof. Dr. Paolo Favero Medebeoordelaar: Prof. Dr. Kevin Smets Abstract Times are changing in India's film industry. While Bollywood remains the biggest film industry in the world, a new Indian cinema genre is rising nowadays, a cinema that tries to find its position between Bollywood, Western and parallel cinema. One of the striking things of this new Indian film genre, that I call New Indian Cinema, pays attention to the way white Western women are treated in India's contemporary society. New Indian Cinema depicts white Western women as survivors of this tough society they are living in. This representation differs from the way India's popular cinema, Bollywood cinema, has depicted the white Western women until now. From the 1950s onwards, they have been represented as immoral ‘devils’; the opposite of moral Indian women. Although Jane Dark has noticed a development in the representation of white women in Bollywood cinema, it seems that it is New Indian Cinema that contributes to the emancipation of this particular kind of film character in Indian cinema. This thesis is focused on the development of the white Western female character during the last decades. Based on the concepts of whiteness and the male gaze, three New Indian Cinema films have been analysed in order to discover how this new Indian film genre depicts Western women and if this representation contributes to the development of this character.

  • Comparison of the Extent of Censorship Laws in India and Abroad
    Journal of Critical Reviews ISSN- 2394-5125 Vol 7, Issue 13, 2020 CENSORSHIP IN INDIA VIS-À-VIS FREEDOM OF SPEECH: COMPARISON OF THE EXTENT OF CENSORSHIP LAWS IN INDIA AND ABROAD 1Priyanka Ghai,Dr. 1Arnind P Bhanu 1Amity Law School Noida, Amity University, Sector-125, Uttar Pradesh, India-201313 Email: [email protected] ,[email protected] Received: 12.04.2020 Revised: 13.05.2020 Accepted: 09.06.2020 Abstract With the current outrage at the arbitrary method of censorship applied by the board of film certification in India, it was pertinent to understand and take a closer look at the methods and principles which guide the method of censorship in India, this is also an attempt to understand why censorship is a vital tool to ensure peace and unity in India. The paper also looks at the past and present of censorship, in the form of how it came to be, why it came to be and also what role it plays in society today. In order to get a bigger picture of censorship an attempt has been made to understand censorship in the United States of America, which is a champion of democracy and also in the People’s Republic of China which uses censorship to shepherd its populace in the other direction. The effects both schools have on censorship have been explored in this paper. India being a mixture of both influences has the right to expression subject to certain instances and therefore must understand that even though the right of free speech is indeed a requirement in these times and places, but why censorship as a necessary evil as well in India.

The short-term ratings have been upgraded to [ICRA]A3 (pronounced ICRA A three) from [ICRA]A4+ (pronounced ICRA A four plus). The outlook on the long-term rating is Stable. Rationale The ratings upgrade takes into account the improvement in MML’s performance in FY2018, which has continued in Q1 FY2019 as well. The company reported healthy revenue growth of ~13% aided by increased sales volume in FY2018. This was despite the implementation of the Goods and Services Tax (GST) from July 1, 2017 and de-stocking in line with the Supreme Court directive on closure of all liquor retail outlets within 500 meters of highways across the country from April 1, 2017. This apart, the company’s capital structure strengthened due to increased accretion to reserves, which resulted in low gearing levels.

  • “Not in Our Good”: Nationalist and Other Concerns in the Censorship
    Sanglap 2.2 (Feb 2016) Censorship and Literature “Not in Our Good”: Nationalist and other Concerns in the Censorship Debates in Early Indian Cinema Binayak Bhattacharya In a full length newsreel named The Great Bonfire of Foreign Clothes (1915) by T. Jansen, a freelance cameraman from USA, M. K. Gandhi, perhaps for the first time on screen, appeared as the most prominent amongst the other nationalist leaders. The newsreel ran for two weeks at the Globe and the West End Theatre of Bombay and received enough enthusiastic response (Kaul 15). But the civil and the political administration of Bombay, seemingly embarrassed with the situation, could do a nothing to stop the exhibition. Nonetheless, the moment proved to be historic as it heralded an era of nationalist embodiment in Indian cinema which would relate closely with Gandhian idealization of the national in near future. In 1915, there was no censor board and the British administration could not prevent the film from being exhibited over a substantial period of time. The rules of the existing regulatory authorities, governed by the “Dramatic Performances Act, 1876,” proved to be inadequate to prevent the screening. As a result, the exhibition continued for almost one month without any authoritarian intervention (ibid 16). Shortly after, anticipating the danger of films depicting the nationalist cause and citing several concerns about the cultural, civic and hygienic norms in film theatres in India, The Cinematograph Act was passed in the British Parliament in 1918. By the terms of this act, four separate Censor boards were set up in Bombay, Madras, Calcutta and Rangoon in May, 1920.
