In the last four years, the CM has been at logger- heads with adversaries in varied forms.

Cometh March, 2017 and Yogi takes charge as CM.

  • Nalini Malani: Mythology, Memory, and Multiplicity in Contemporary Indian Art
    NALINI MALANI: MYTHOLOGY, MEMORY, AND MULTIPLICITY IN CONTEMPORARY INDIAN ART Keya I. Patel Department of Art and Art History Plan II Honors Program The University of Texas at Austin May 15, 2019 ! Janice Leoshko, Ph.D Department of Art and Art History Supervising Professor Abstract Author: Keya Patel Title: Nalini Malani: Mythology, Memory, and Multiplicity in Contemporary Indian Art Supervising Professor: Dr. Janice Leoshko In 2018, contemporary Indian artist Nalini Malani had two major solo exhibitions in Europe—notable given that late in life, her deeply culturally specific artwork was receiving a mainstream European audience. In a South Asian cultural landscape disrupted and complicated by its recent colonial past, Malani has emerged as a figure who radically encapsulates many of the concerns of India’s present-day art production. This thesis investigates Malani’s appropriation of the mythological heroine Sita in her artwork, through which she comments on the treatment of contemporary Indian women. Through the evolution of her depictions of women like Sita, Malani’s artwork acts as a defiant rebuke of fundamentalism while also speaking in a shared visual language drawing heavily from past tradition, iconography, and narrative. Ultimately, Malani’s work fills an important gap in the Indian national consciousness by serving as an exercise in remembrance, in reclaiming agency, and in raising awareness of the female trauma that has been intertwined and conflated with the project of nation building. 2 Acknowledgements This project would not have been possible without the guidance, support, and friendship of my advisor, Dr. Janice Leoshko. Thank you for always advocating on my behalf, offering comfort and direction, and encouraging me to pursue my dreams.

  • Saving Sita: the Ramayana and Gender Narratives in Postcolonial
    Saving Sita: The Ramayana and Gender Narratives in Postcolonial Hindu Nationalism Suvarna Variyar A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Masters of Philosophy School of Studies in Religion University of Sydney 2018 Statement of Originality: This is to certify that to the best of my knowledge, the content of this thesis is my own work. This thesis has not been submitted for any degree or other purposes. I certify that the intellectual content of this thesis is the product of my own work and that all the assistance received in preparing this thesis and sources have been acknowledged. Suvarna Variyar Abstract This thesis examines the role that the Hindu epic the Ramayana plays in shaping the relationship between conservative Hindu Indian nationalism and gender in post-colonial India. It demonstrates how the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has manipulated understandings of the Ramayana to best serve its political aims since 1980, and to further an inherently sexist and discriminatory agenda. Chapter One outlines the role of exclusionary narrative in constructing national identity along conservative and fundamentalist lines. Drawing from this, it goes on to present and expand upon the key research questions explored in this thesis. Chapter Two examines the various relevant fields of literature which are involved in this discussion. Chapter Three outlines the key methodological fields from which this thesis draws as an intersectional study. Chapter Four analyses Valmiki’s Ramayana in considering its depiction of gender constructs, and touches upon the significance of the 1987 Ramayan television serial by Ramanand Sagar. Chapter Five explores the role of gender in the Indian Independence movement and the development of Hindu nationalism.

  • Deconstructing the Spurious Belief System Behind Pilgrimage: Enlightening Youth Towards Spirituality Dr
    International Journal of English Literature and Social Sciences Vol-6, Issue-1; Jan-Feb, 2021 Journal Home Page Available: https://ijeab.com/ Journal DOI: 10.22161/ijels Deconstructing the Spurious Belief System behind Pilgrimage: Enlightening Youth towards Spirituality Dr. Anupriya Singh1, Dr. Shipra Malik2, Prof. Krishna Dayal Sharma3 1,3Swami Keshvanand Institute of Technology, Jaipur, Rajasthan 2 Arts and Science College, Baljurashi, Albaha, Saudi Arabia Received: 05 Nov 2020; Received in revised form: 11 Jan 2021; Accepted: 21 Jan 2021; Available online: 31 Jan 2021 ©2021 The Author(s). Published by Infogain Publication. This is an open access article under the CC BY license (https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/). Abstract— This paper is written with an aim to create awareness that pilgrimage is incapable of bringing about permanent transformation in human beings, though sometimes it can be one of the stimulants to inspire humans to adopt righteousness in their lives. But, in most instances, pilgrims experience transient engendering of these benevolent feelings which can be considered to be equivalent to the concepts of “liminality” and “communitas” propounded by Victor Turner in his theory. This research undertakes to prove it by resolving the ambiguity between the concepts of spirituality and religion citing mainly the thoughts of Mirra Alfassa known to her followers as “The Mother”, Aurobindo Ghosh, Karl Marx & Victor Turner and employing them as bases to demonstrate that the “Kumbh Mela” and Hajj, the places of pilgrimage, are mere manifestations of religion, and therefore insignificant in bringing about any perpetual transformation in human beings, a view which was vehemently buttressed by Rene Gothoni in his paper entitled “Pilgrimage=Transformation Journey”.

  • Ramanand Sagar's Ramayan, Politics and Popular Piety in Late Twentieth-Century India Carole M. Cusack
    THE GODS ON TELEVISION: RAMANAND SAGAR’s RAMAYAN, POLITICS AND POPULAR PIETY IN LATE TWENTIETh-cenTURY INDIA Carole M. Cusack Introduction On Sunday mornings from January 25, 1987 to July 31, 1988 between eighty and one hundred million Indians watched Ramayan, a seventy-eight epi- sode television series directed by Ramanand Sagar (Kumar 2006). This was a realisation of the Ramayana, one of India’s most loved stories, an epic regarded as smrti (“that which is recollected”) scripture, and was shown on Doordarshan (the national broadcaster, founded in 1959). Though derided by critics for its gaudy costumes, extremely slow narrative pace, and low quality special effects (Lutgendorf 1990) Ramayan evoked spontaneous outbursts of popular piety and became an important focus of devotion, with viewers performing purification rituals before the programme began and adorning television sets with flowers and incense, consecrating them as altars (Mitchell 2005).1 Further, Ramayan coincided with a sharp upsurge in Hindu nation- alism and religious fundamentalism, which was partially fuelled by the series’ presentation of a Hindu world menaced by demons (the “Other”) (Wu 2008). The presence of a mosque, the Babri Masjid, on the site of the alleged birthplace of Rama (who is an avatar or human manifesta- tion of the god Vishnu) in Ayodhya was a particularly inflammatory issue (Rajagopal 2001). This mosque was demolished by Hindu nationalists on December 6, 1992 (Karner 2005). In the wake of the demolition, “riots across the country . left 2,026 dead and 6,957 wounded” (Rajagopal 2001: 17). Although the destruction of the Babri Masjid took place four years after Ramayan ceased being screened, there is evidence that the serial’s presentation of Rama and Sita as Hindu exemplars of morality and 1 I am grateful to my research assistant Dominique Wilson for her skill and patience in locating materials, photocopying and taking preliminary notes.
