  • President Pranab Mukherjee Praises Narendra Modi Govt for 1 July Rollout
    7/5/2017 GST: President Pranab Mukherjee praises Narendra Modi govt for 1 July rollout Wednesday, July 05, 2017 Switch(/) to हद (http://hindi.firstpost.com/) GST: President Pranab Mukherjee praises Narendra Modi govt for 1 July rollout Kolkata: Praising the central government's move to roll out the Goods and Services Tax (GST) from 1 July, President Pranab Mukherjee on Thursday said it will put an end to the burden of multiplicity of taxes that the citizens had to pay so far. Thanking Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Union Finance Minister Arun Jaitley for pushing through a single tax system for the country's 130 crore people, Mukherjee said so long consumers had to shell out 30 to 40 percent more on the cost of production of goods and services. File image of Pranab Mukhjerjee. PTI Mukherjee, who was addressing a Global Summit organised by The Institute of Cost Accountants of India here, recalled how he and other nance ministers in the past had made futile attempts to introduce the GST. "From the days of Yashwant Sinha, who was nance minister in Vajpayee government, to my days in nance ministry before I assumed the ofce of president, we tried to have the GST. I introduced in 2011 a Constitutional Amendment Bill to facilitate the GST. But it could not go through," he said. The president said he at times wondered why the process of change was slow, but then remembered that the ethos of India lay in its philosophy of unity in diversity. The country has wide-ranging diversity, with a population of 1.3 billion, and people speaking around 200 languages, 1,800 dialects, practising seven major religions and belonging to three major ethnic groups.

  • Banalities Turned Viral: Narendra Modi and the Political Tweet
    TVNXXX10.1177/1527476415573956Television & New MediaPal 573956research-article2015 Article Television & New Media 1 –10 Banalities Turned Viral: © The Author(s) 2015 Reprints and permissions: Narendra Modi and the sagepub.com/journalsPermissions.nav DOI: 10.1177/1527476415573956 Political Tweet tvn.sagepub.com Joyojeet Pal1 Abstract Narendra Modi’s social media presence is among the most extensive for any politician in the world, including on Twitter where he currently stands second in following only to Barack Obama. With a mix of “feel good” messages, shout-outs to other celebrities, and well-timed ritualized responses, as well as a careful strategy of “followbacks” for a small selection of his most active followers, Modi has been able to grow his following dramatically especially since 2013. Twitter helps Modi directly reach a significant constituency of listeners, and use it as a channel to talk to the main stream media. In addition, the very appearance of his using social media effectively is in itself valuable in reshaping his public image as a technology-savvy leader, aligned with the aspirations of a new Indian modernity. Keywords Narendra Modi, Twitter, social media, politics, India, BJP, campaign, followback, new media, Facebook, NaMo, RSS The most “retweeted” and “favorited” message in India’s social media history came on May 15, 2014, when the handle @narendramodi tweeted “India has Won.” The Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) had come to power in elections with the biggest mandate in three decades, and Narendra Modi would be the next prime minister. The carefully phrased victory tweet congratulated the social media supporters who had for months been his online foot soldiers.

  • Jaitley, Chidambaram Share Stage to Agree, Disagree
    Jaitley, Chidambaram share stage to agree, disagree Both find common ground on insurance FDI; while Jaitley rapped UPA for derailing the economy, Chidambaram took on NDA govt for not repealing retro tax amendment It was a clash of ideas between Finance Minister Arun Jaitley and his predecessor P Chidambaram but a debate between the two also saw them agree broadly on raising the cap on foreign investment in insurance companies. Prime Minister Narendra Modi and Jaitley had spoken about tough decisions but Chidambaram took on the National Democratic Alliance government for not taking these very measures, including repealing of the retrospective amendments to the Income Tax Act. Jaitley's predecessor conceded the mistakes made by the Manmohan Singh government, saying it should have cancelled 2G telecom licences when the scam surfaced, without waiting for court judgment. Jaitley accused the United Progressive Alliance (UPA) government of continuing with the practice of discretionary allocation in coal, even after the report by the Comptroller and Auditor General of India (CAG). He charged the UPA regime with derailing the economy that yielded under five per cent growth for consecutive years. "You have the biggest majority in 30 years. In my 12 years as finance minister, had I had that kind of majority, I would have taken tougher decisions. I would have repealed the retrospective tax laws, for instance. It just takes a few amendments in the Income Tax Act. I was hoping you would do that and I am still hoping that you do," said Chidambaram in the debate with Jaitley during the launch of television journalist Rajdeep Sardesai's book 2014: The Elections That Changed India.

Assistant Professor, Dept. of Anthropology West Bengal State University, Barasat; Berunanpukuria, P.O.: Malikapur Kolkata-700126; West Bengal PREAMBLE: As social complexity, industrialization, and urbanization spread globally, anthropologists increasingly study these processes and the social problems they create. Urban anthropology, which has theoretical (basic research) and applied dimensions, is the cross-cultural and ethnographic study of global urbanization and life in cities (Kottak, 2002). The state, like West Bengal, has become gradually a popular arena for urban anthropological research on sports, like ethnicity, poverty, class, and sub cultural variations. Sports, being one of the leisure time recreations have become a typical subculture in present day urban West Bengal. Urbanization is the movement of people from rural to urban areas, and the result is the growth of cities (Dasgupta,2012). It is also a process by which rural areas are transformed into urban areas. People primarily move into cities to seek economic opportunities. Urbanization, therefore, summarizes the relationship between the population and its urban component. The concept of urbanization has a dual meaning - demographical and socio-cultural. Both are equally important and significant for the present study from the perspective of social- cultural anthropology. Socio-culturally, it refers to the behaviour or way of life, institutions, and material things that are identified as urban in origin and use.
