    HAQ: Centre for Child Rights is a human rights organisation that focusses on all rights for all children. Founded in 1998 and formally registered in June 1999, HAQ envisions an inclusive society where all children grow up in an environment that rests on the principles of non- discrimination and equality and where the human rights of all children are recognised, protected and realised. The organisation thus seeks to mainstream child rights and children’s concerns in all development planning and action. In doing so, HAQ works through knowledge creation, evidence- based advocacy and communication, direct support for children in distress, strategic collaboration and partnership. This report is yet another outcome of the vision and mission that guides HAQ in its endeavours.

When the first lockdown was announced in India in March 2020, we hoped it would not last long as nobody was prepared. Soon news started coming in about loss of jobs, a crackdown of the public health system, lack of support from the government for those who needed it the most and a crashing economy.

About Us The Express Group was the unifying voice behind India’s struggle for independence. Today, it is the leading light in the battle against corruption as well as empowering the people of India. The Indian Express began its journey in 1932. Since then, the Group has grown from strength to strength. From a single edition to 35 national editions, 21 publication centers and 7 language dailies that reach over 19 million people across the country.... For the millions of readers, the name "Indian Express" evokes a feeling of faith and trust in the belief that ‘their Express’ will provide the true picture of India and the world at large. Published from 21 centers across the country, the newspaper has been identified with credible and fiercely independent journalism in India. One of the most influential newspapers of the Indian subcontinent, The Indian Express has been the watchdog for the Indian people, fiercely treading the terrains of investigative and pro-active journalism. Some of the most shocking stories in the history of Indian journalism are credited to this newspaper. For instance, it showed how slavery existed in 20th century India when an Express reporter actually bought a woman from the market and wrote the famous story of Kamla. When the Press was muzzled and gagged and democracy kept in prison in 1975 during the Emergency, The Express was one of the few papers to stand up and speak out against the anti-democracy..

ICRA has a long-term rating outstanding of [ICRA]A- (Pronounced ICRA A minus) on the Rs 25.00 crore term loans, Rs 35.00 crore cash credit limits and RS 60.00 crore (reduced from Rs 70.00 crore) unallocated limits of the company. The outlook on the long term rating is ‘Stable’. The ratings continue to reflect TIEPL’s healthy financial flexibility marked by a robust capital structure and improvement in coverage indicators in line with improvement in profitability metrics over the last fiscal and further supported by adequate cash balances (Rs 61.2 crore as on March 31, 2015) and undrawn lines of credit. Reducing debt levels coupled with further improvement in profitability metrics expected on account of favourable newsprint prices as well as improving cost efficiencies and absence of any significant debt funded capex plans is expected to support the cash flows and financial profile of the company over the near term. The ratings continue to factor in the strong brand recall of flagship publication, The Indian Express, and leadership position of Marathi publication, Loksatta, which provides opportunities for offering bundled products across editions and geographies and consistent growth in circulation revenues of the company supported by higher penetration in existing markets, increase in cover price and launch of new editions to mark entry into new markets.

  • Become a Political Issue in Indian Politics?
    Why Has “Development” Become a Political Issue in Indian Politics? Aseema Sinha Wagener Chair of South Asian Politics Claremont McKenna College Most observers of India have an implicit model of how Indians vote.1 They assume that voters in India act on their primary identities, such as caste or community, and that parties seek votes based on group identities—called vote banks—that can be collated into majorities and coalitions. K.C. Suri articu- lates the logic of this dominant model: 189 People of this country vote more on the basis of emotional issues or primordial loyalties, such as caste, religion, language or region and less on the basis of policies. The victory or defeat of a party depends on how a party or leaders marshal support by appealing to these sentiments or forge coalitions of groups and parties based on these feelings. People of India, unlike in the West, do not think and act as classes, and they vote for the party or leader they think their own, regardless of its or his policies.2 Scholarship on India has accumulated strong evidence that elections are per- meated by caste, language, religion, and identity politics.3 The prominence of parties such as the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) and All India Majlis-e-Ittehadul Aseema Sinha is the Wagener Chair of South Asian Politics at Claremont McKenna College. She previ- ously taught at University of Wisconsin-Madison and was a Fellow at the Woodrow Wilson Center in Washington, D.C. Her research interests relate to the political economy of India, India-China comparisons, international organizations, and the rise of India as an emerging power.
