  • MAPPING the KUMBH MELA by Deonnie Moodie, SAI Intern; Phd Candidate, Harvard Graduate School of Arts and Sciences
    Harvard University South Asia Institute HARVARD WITHOUT BORDERS: MAPPING THE KUMBH MELA By Deonnie Moodie, SAI Intern; PhD Candidate, Harvard Graduate School of Arts and Sciences This year’s symposium concluded with a panel discussion of the Kumbh Mela – the largest human gathering on earth which takes place every twelve years, most recently in January and February, 2013. This Hindu festival takes place just outside Allahabad on the flood plains where the Ganges and Yamuna rivers meet, in the north Indian state of Uttar Pradesh. In January this year, over 50 faculty, staff and students from the faculties of Arts and Sciences, Design, Health and Business at Harvard traveled to the Kumbh to study various aspects of this event. The support provided by the government entities in Uttar Pradesh who organize and manage this festival has been integral to the success of Harvard’s research projects here. At this panel, a packed audience gathered to hear presentations by Chief Secretary of Uttar Pradesh, Jawed Usmani , along with a few of the Harvard Professors who were involved in Harvard’s Mapping India’s Kumbh Mela project ‐ Diana Eck, Rahul Mehrotra, Gregg Greenough, and Tarun Khanna. Usmani’s presentation introduced audience members to Uttar Pradesh ‐ India’s most populous state ‐ to the mythology of the Kumbh Mela, and to the massive amount of work that is involved in preparing for and managing this event. Six central government departments and 28 state government departments worked together with thousands of personnel from various sectors to provide the infrastructure and amenities necessary to create a temporary city for this event.

  • Illegal Occupation of Gram Sabha Land by Coca-Cola in Varanasi
    Shri Jawed Usmani Chief Secretary Government of Uttar Pradesh Secretariat Complex Lucknow, UP 226 001 January 15, 2014 Subject: Illegal Occupation of Gram Sabha Land by Coca-Cola in Varanasi Shri Usmaniji: I am writing to seek your immediate attention and action on the illegal occupation of Gram Sabha land by the Hindustan Coca-Cola Beverages Private Limited (HCCBPL) in Mehdiganj, District Varanasi. On December 16, 2013, the Tehsildar (Dist. Varanasi, Sadar) issued a notice to evict and reclaim Gram Sabha land illegally occupied by HCCBPL within the company’s factory premises. In addition, the company was also fined Rs. 1,24,590.00. As of today, HCCBPL continues to illegally occupy the Gram Sabha land and no attempt has been made by the company to give back the illegally occupied land. Gram Sabha land is community owned land for the benefit of the community and cannot be possessed by private parties, as HCCBPL has done. We are asking that your office take immediate action to reclaim the Gram Sabha land illegally occupied by the HCCBPL. The office of the Chief Secretary has been tasked by the Supreme Court of India to ensure compliance with the laws regarding illegal occupation of Gram Sabha land. As you are well aware, a two member bench of the Supreme Court, comprising Honorable Justices Markandey Katju and Gyan Sudha Mishra, while disposing of the Civil Appeal No.1132/2011 @ SLP(C) No.3109/2011 dated January 28, 2011, noted that: “We are of the opinion that such kind of blatant illegalities must not be condoned.

  • Open Letter to the Prime Minister: India Needs Action Now
    OPEN LETTER TO THE PRIME MINISTER: INDIA NEEDS ACTION NOW 20 May 2021 Dear Prime Minister, We, a group of former civil servants from the All India and Central Services, with a deep commitment to the Constitution of India and with no political affiliations, have written to you as well as other constitutional authorities on a number of occasions in the past, whenever we felt that executive actions violated the provisions of the Constitution. Today, in the midst of the Covid pandemic and the suffering that has engulfed the people of our country, we write to you in anguish as well as in anger. We are aware that this pandemic threatens the entire world and is not going to leave the citizens of India untouched. And yet, what numbs our senses daily is not just the cries of the citizenry for medical assistance and the death toll in its thousands but the manifestly casual attitude of your government to the magnitude of the crisis and its implications for the mental and physical health of the community of Indians. The steady erosion of the Cabinet system of governance, the worsening of federal relationships with the states, especially those governed by parties opposed to the party ruling at the centre, the lack of informed consultation with experts and Parliamentary committees, the failure to take the timely advice of expert committees and the absence of effective coordination with state governments have had disastrous consequences for the poor and disadvantaged and now for the better off sections of society as well. Despite warnings from the international community and our own scientists, the breathing space between the first and the second waves was not used to augment critical resources such as medical staff, hospital beds, oxygen supplies, ventilators and drugs and other medical supplies.
