  • A Governor's Test: the Hindu Editorial on Convening Rajasthan Assembly
    Source : www.thehindu.com Date : 2020-07-29 A GOVERNOR’S TEST: THE HINDU EDITORIAL ON CONVENING RAJASTHAN ASSEMBLY Relevant for: Indian Polity | Topic: Functions & Responsibilities of the States, the Governor, the Chief Minister and State COM Rajasthan Governor Kalraj Mishra could have sought a floor test in the State Assembly to ensure that the government of Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot has a majority, as soon as a rebellion in the ruling Congress cast a shadow on it. Far from that, Mr. Mishra now appears to be bending over backwards to delay a trust vote. The Governor has cited six reasons for his procrastination in calling an Assembly session. But the Supreme Court has settled that the Governor has no discretionary powers in summoning a session of the Assembly, and he or she is bound to act according to the aid and advice of the CM and the Council of Ministers. The Governor can require the CM and the Council of Ministers to seek a trust vote if he or she has reasons to believe that they have lost the confidence of the Assembly. Either way, the only appropriate way forward for Mr. Mishra is to convene the session and allow the democratic process to take its course. Now that the State cabinet has reiterated its demand for a session, specifying a date and an agenda as demanded by the Governor, he should not look for more excuses and bring embarrassment to the high office he holds. The CM has said the Governor is acting under pressure from the Centre, as he took the battle to the streets.

Eine einzigartige Karriere ist zu Ende – nach 114 Titeln und 1283 Partien im Profizirkus 9 771424 925002 WARM-UP Herzlichsten Dank, Martina und Marco! Liebe Leserin, lieber Leser Abschied ist ein bisschen wie sterben. So kitschig dieser Satz ist, so realitätsnah ist er doch auch. So war es auch im letzten Oktoberdrittel, als innert weniger Tage Marco Chiudinelli und Martina Hingis ihren Rücktritt bekannt gaben. Viele waren traurig, auch Roger Federer, hörte doch sein Jugendfreund und Partner unzähliger Schlachten auf den Trainings- und Turniercourts, am Gameboy und auf Fussballplätzen auf sowie die zehn Monate ältere Ostschweizerin, die ihn, den «Luftibus», wie er selber in diesem Maga- zin sagt, animierte, professioneller zu werden. Und auch ich verdrückte die eine oder andere Träne, als ich beim sportlichen Farewell der beiden zwischen Allschwil, Basler St. Jakobshalle und Singapur einige Tennishallen und Flugmeilen sammelte. Chiudinelli wird mir in Erinnerung bleiben als «Schweizer Nummer 1 der Normalsterb- lichen», als Stehaufmann, der immer gewinnen wollte, auch wenn die Ausgangslage noch so stark gegen ihn sprach und als eloquenter Gesprächspartner, aber auch als einer, der es schaffte, an einer Kinderpressekonferenz die Frage eines Sechsjährigen so herun- ter zu brechen, dass der Dreikäsehoch die Antwort hundertprozentig verstand. Und Martina Hingis hat mich begleitet, seit ich Tennis denke. Ich war bei ihrem ersten Profiturnier in Langenthal im Oktober 1993 dabei, als Fan, ebenfalls ein Jahr später bei ihrem WTA-Debüt in der Saalsporthalle.

  • Uttar Pradesh: Competitive Communalism Once Again
    ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 Uttar Pradesh: Competitive Communalism Once Again SUDHA PAI Vol. 49, Issue No. 15, 12 Apr, 2014 Sudha Pai ([email protected]) teaches at the Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi. Uttar Pradesh, a key state in the race for power in New Delhi, is witnessing a resurgence of communal politics after a brief lull in the early 2000s. While the Samajwadi Party’s attempts to win back Muslim support seem to have hit a roadblock after the Muzaffarnagar riots, the Bharatiya Janata Party hopes to revive its earlier appeal by promoting Narendra Modi and the Hindutva agenda. Though the earlier weakening of identity politics was expected to bring in a development-oriented politics, the state remains underdeveloped and caught between political parties that still play the same old electoral cards of division and promotion of strife. The election campaign for the Lok Sabha elections is a highly contested one with many different, often contradictory, issues being stridently debated by political parties, their candidates, and the public. On the one hand, with liberalisation, the rise of a large middle class, and urbanisation, issues such as governance, corruption, and the need for welfare or neo-liberal reforms have been raised by civil society movements, which political parties and the electorate have to contend with. On the other, the politics of identity, which was widely felt to have abated in recent years in the key state of Uttar Pradesh (UP), has reared its head once again. In the 1990s, UP experienced changes that transformed national politics – the rise of the Hindutva ideology, Mandal and the dalit upsurge.

  • Andy Murray Articles 2004-2006
    ANDY MURRAY ARTICLES 2004-2006 2004 Scots tennis 'courting disaster' Despite helping to produce world-class young players Scotland’s top tennis trainer has quit in disgust, writes Tom Lynch Published: 8 August 2004 There’s a wistful note to coach Murray’s voice when she recalls the moment. A hint of pride too. “I couldn’t believe that the kids I started off with when they were eight or nine were in the biggest tournament in the world.” Now, as a summer fog descends on her Dunblane home, Murray’s mood has changed. All the optimism has been replaced by frustration. Last week she resigned from her post at Tennis Scotland, disgusted at the lack of backing from the country’s sports administrators and its politicians and fearing that youngsters who have the talent to win top titles could be forced to leave the game. She is not alone in her thinking. According to Murray, three of the four tennis development staff in Scotland have quit this year, allegedly fed up with their puny resources. Next to go, Murray fears, will be the country’s outstanding crop of young players, forced out of the game because there is simply not the money to help them break through into the big time, to compete alongside the Tim Henmans and Greg Rusedskis for the top honours. The tragic thing is, she says, is that she and her colleagues have produced tremendous talents “against all the odds”. For, while the Scottish executive plans to spend £30m on football to make it competitive again on the world stage, funding for tennis has been slashed by 60%.
