  • Chapter 43 Electoral Statistics
    CHAPTER 43 ELECTORAL STATISTICS 43.1 India is a constitutional democracy with a parliamentary system of government, and at the heart of the system is a commitment to hold regular, free and fair elections. These elections determine the composition of the Government, the membership of the two houses of parliament, the state and union territory legislative assemblies, and the Presidency and vice-presidency. Elections are conducted according to the constitutional provisions, supplemented by laws made by Parliament. The major laws are Representation of the People Act, 1950, which mainly deals with the preparation and revision of electoral rolls, the Representation of the People Act, 1951 which deals, in detail, with all aspects of conduct of elections and post election disputes. 43.2 The Election Commission of India is an autonomous, quasi-judiciary constitutional body of India. Its mission is to conduct free and fair elections in India. It was established on 25 January, 1950 under Article 324 of the Constitution of India. Since establishment of Election Commission of India, free and fair elections have been held at regular intervals as per the principles enshrined in the Constitution, Electoral Laws and System. The Constitution of India has vested in the Election Commission of India the superintendence, direction and control of the entire process for conduct of elections to Parliament and Legislature of every State and to the offices of President and Vice- President of India. The Election Commission is headed by the Chief Election Commissioner and other Election Commissioners. There was just one Chief Election Commissioner till October, 1989.

  • Growing Cleavages in India? Evidence from the Changing Structure of Electorates, 1962-2014
    WID.world WORKING PAPER N° 2019/05 Growing Cleavages in India? Evidence from the Changing Structure of Electorates, 1962-2014 Abhijit Banerjee Amory Gethin Thomas Piketty March 2019 Growing Cleavages in India? Evidence from the Changing Structure of Electorates, 1962-2014 Abhijit Banerjee, Amory Gethin, Thomas Piketty* January 16, 2019 Abstract This paper combines surveys, election results and social spending data to document the long-run evolution of political cleavages in India. From a dominant- party system featuring the Indian National Congress as the main actor of the mediation of political conflicts, Indian politics have gradually come to include a number of smaller regionalist parties and, more recently, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). These changes coincide with the rise of religious divisions and the persistence of strong caste-based cleavages, while education, income and occupation play little role (controlling for caste) in determining voters’ choices. We find no evidence that India’s new party system has been associated with changes in social policy. While BJP-led states are generally characterized by a smaller social sector, switching to a party representing upper castes or upper classes has no significant effect on social spending. We interpret this as evidence that voters seem to be less driven by straightforward economic interests than by sectarian interests and cultural priorities. In India, as in many Western democracies, political conflicts have become increasingly focused on identity and religious-ethnic conflicts

They point to the particular historical trajectory of interaction of state-making leaders and other social forces, and the divergent authority structure that took shape, as underpinning this difference. In Manipur, where social forces retained their authority, the state’s autonomy was compromised. This affected its capacity, including that to resolve group conflicts. Here powerful social forces politicized their narrow identities to capture state power, leading to competitive mobilisation and conflicts.

  • CHAPTER-S EMERGENCE and EVOLUTION of SIKKIM DEMOCRATIC FRONT AS a POLITICAL PARTY CHAPTER 5 Emergence and Evolution of Sikkim Democratic Front As a Political Party
    CHAPTER-S EMERGENCE AND EVOLUTION OF SIKKIM DEMOCRATIC FRONT AS A POLITICAL PARTY CHAPTER 5 Emergence and Evolution of Sikkim Democratic Front as a Political Party 1. Dissention within Sikkim Sangram Parishad It has already been discussed in the last part of the previous chapter about the feud between Chamling and Bhandari and the former's expulsion from the party on the ground of ideological differences. In this chapter, we will try to assess the reason behind the dissention and the emergence of a new state political outfit, Sikkim Democratic Front (SDF) and its role in the state politics. Pawan Chamling, a son of a farmer from Yangang, south Sikkim had first started his political career as the President of his village Yangang Gram Panchayat Unit in 1982 and became an MLA of Damthang Constituency in 1985. He slowly climbed up the political ladder to become a Cabinet Minister in SSP Government in 1989 and was the Minister- in-charge for Industries, Printing and Information & Public Relations. (Commemorative issue:25 years of Statehood) On his days as the SSP minister for two and half years, there started growing a discord on principles and practices of politics between him and the then Chief Minister Nar Bahadur Bhandari. The differences between him and the leadership of the SSP were neither petty nor personal. There were substantial differences on issues of principle and ideology. (B B Gurung) 2012) (Bali) 2003) It was alleged that during Bhandari's rule, he ruled as a monarch without a crown. The fundamental rights of speech and expression granted by the constitution to its citizens became CHAPTER 5 : Emergence and Evolution of Sikkim Democratic Front as a Political Party imprisoned within the bounds of Mintokgang.

  • Economic Development of Mizoram
    IOSR Journal of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 25, Issue 8, Series 4 (August. 2020) 17-22 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org Anassessment of the Role of Political Partiesin the Socio- Economic Development of Mizoram F. LALRAMHLUNI Research Scholar, Department of Political Science Mizoram University (MZU) Abstract Political parties are essential to the functioning of democracy; they performed varied functions within and outside the realm of politics. Their role in political mobilization, governance, the formulation and implementation of economic and social policy, ethnic conflict and the working of democracy has been intensified and gained importance in the democratic set up. Their centrality arises from the fact that they are the key link between the individual and the state, the state and the society. Political parties provide crucial connection between social process and policy makers, and influence debate and policies affecting the interest of various social groups in the political system. Election is an important part of democratic process. Political parties issue their agendas, goals and objectives to the voters in the form of election manifesto. It is a statement by political party what it will do if they win the elections. Political parties are evaluated and examined their performances based on their election manifestos. This paper aims to analyse and seek the role of political parties in socio- economic development of Mizoram through their electoral performances and their policies since the attainment of statehood in 1986 till the last State Legislative Assembly Elections of 2018. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------- Date of Submission: 25-07-2020 Date of Acceptance: 09-08-2020 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------- I.
