  • 3.1 INTRODUCTION This Chapter Concentrates on the Buddhists
    I l l nr h e : q u d d h i s t s Ei-rnfsjic i oeim t i t y I 3.1 INTRODUCTION This chapter concentrates on the Buddhists' ways of maintaining their new identity. The Mahars got a new framework for ethnic identity by embracing Buddhism. Patwardhan's (1973) study reported that 9 0 ’/. of the respondents from her sample declared themselves as Buddhists while only 1 0 ’/. considered themselves as Mahars. Interestingly, in the present study all the respondents (100’/.) have identified themselves as Buddhists. Gokhale's (1993) study maintains that the rejection of all Hindu traditions was the most important and outstanding feature of the self identification among Buddhists. In this context, Arun Sadhu (Nov. 1975) wrote in the Time* of India; "They (the Buddhists) seem to have got rid of their age old inferiority complex. They have a fresh sense of identity and a newly acquired confidence. What is more, the youth among them have completely shed the superstitions that had cramped their existence, and have adopted a more rational view of life". The Buddhists have made a great deal of effort to 70 learn and practise the customs, rites and rituals of Buddhism. Gokhale <1993) noted that the elite among them codified the new ideology through written words, new institutions, articles and books on Buddhism. The religious specialists were trained for guiding the people about Dhamma. They circulated pamphlets on the topic. The photograph of Dr. Ambedkar and Buddha can be found on the cover page of almost all the publications by the Buddhists.

He tendered his resignation to President Sergio Mattarella, the ultimate arbiter of Italian political crises, who invited him to stay on in a caretaker capacity pending discussions on what happens next. Italy was the first European country to face the full force of the Covid-19 pandemic and has since suffered badly, with the economy plunged into recession and deaths still rising by around 400 a day. Parts of the country remain under partial lockdown, the vaccination programme has slowed and a deadline is looming to agree on plans to spend billions of euros in European Union recovery funds. Kaja Kallas to become Estonia’s first female prime minister Kaja Kallas, the leader of the Reform Party will become Estonia’s first female prime minister. The Reform Party, led by Kallas, won the 2019 parliamentary election in Estonia with 34 MPs in the country’s 101-seat parliament, Riigikogu. Estonia would thus currently become the only country in the world where both the president Kersti Kaljulaid and the prime minister are women.
