Bridling Central Tyranny in India How Regional Parties Restrain the Federal Government
ANOOP SADANANDAN Bridling Central Tyranny in India How Regional Parties Restrain the Federal Government ABSTRACT Successive national governments in India have invoked an emergency constitutional provision to impose direct central rule in states over 100 times since 1950. However, such central government usurpation of state governance has declined since the mid- 1990s. This essay demonstrates how India’s regional parties, by entering into opportu- nistic alliances with national parties and joining coalition central governments, have become effective barriers against central dominance. It also identifies the specific dynamics through which this effective veto power is exercised. KEYWORDS: India, federalism, regional parties, Article 356, President’s Rule Article 356 of the Indian Constitution empowers the central gov- ernment in New Delhi to suspend normal governance in any federating state and impose its own rule. Although this emergency constitutional provision was intended to be used in exceptional cases, successive central governments have invoked the article frequently—over 100 times since the Constitution was adopted in 1950—and often arbitrarily, to impose central rule in various states. The central governments often did so for political reasons, usually to dismiss opposition-ruled state governments or to prevent the opposition from forming state governments after the elections. This subverted democratic and federal principles that India affirmed and aspired. However, the frequency with which India’s federal government has invoked the emergency provision has declined since the mid-1990s. For instance, in the 15 years from 1994 to 2009, there were only 11 such instances, whereas the 15 years before 1994 had witnessed 40. What has led to this decline? What factors have prevailed on the central government since the mid-1990s to stop it from imposing its rule in India’s states? Anoop Sadanandan holds a Ph.D.

UA/SC UA 242/92 Death Penalty 28 July 1992 India: Sukhdev
EXTERNAL (for general distribution) AI Index: ASA 20/41/92 Distr: UA/SC UA 242/92 Death Penalty 28 July 1992 India: Sukhdev Singh alias Sukha and Harjinder Singh alias Jinda Amnesty International is concerned that Sukhdev Singh and Harjinder Singh face execution after the Supreme Court upheld their death sentence on 16 July 1992. Sukhdev Singh and Harjinder Singh, both members of the Sikh community, were sentenced to death by a Trial Court for their role in the assassination of General A.S. Vaidya, former Chief of the Armed Forces, in January 1986. They reportedly confessed to the crime and have not filed any appeal against their conviction or the severity of the sentence. BACKGROUND INFORMATION Following conflict between the Indian army and Sikh militants demanding a separate Sikh state in Punjab, the then Prime Minister, Indira Gandhi, put General Vaidya in charge of "Operation Bluestar" to flush militants out of the Golden Temple, the main Sikh Shrine in Amritsar, in 1984. During this operation, an estimated 1,000 people were killed. Many were armed Sikh militants, but some were innocent bystanders or pilgrims. India's higher courts have ruled that the death penalty can only be applied in the "rarest of rare" cases. In upholding the sentence of death for Sukhdev Singh and Harjinder Singh, the Supreme Court concluded that this case was "the rarest of the rare", and that the death penalty was "unassailable". They drew attention to the lack of remorse or repentance shown by the two men and to their apparent pride in having killed General A S Vaidya for his role in Operation Bluestar.

The Soviet Union's Partnership with India
MastnyThe Soviet Union’s Partnership with India The Soviet Union’s Partnership with India ✣ Vojtech Mastny The partnership between India and the Soviet Union during the Cold War has been widely regarded as a success story. Although the two coun- tries did not pretend to share the same values, they had no serious conºict of interests and created a model of mutually beneªcial realpolitik. The relation- ship still evokes nostalgia in India, projecting the image of the Soviet Union as a respectful and reliable friend, and has been cited to Americans as an example to emulate. How accurate are these images? How did the two partners really see each other? What did they try to get in building their relationship, and how important to them was what they got? What beneªts did they derive? How can we tell?1 In both countries, most writings on the subject were traditionally of the celebratory kind. More balanced accounts were written by foreign authors, but their value was limited by the inºuence of the ongoing Cold War and by a dearth of reliable sources. Despite India’s American-style “Right to Informa- tion Act,” access to Indian archives has been routinely obstructed by the gov- ernment, which, with its penchant for secrecy, has kept the inside records of its decision-making out of public sight. Although much can be gleaned from private papers of important ofªcials, they are available only through the early 1970s. For later years, retrospective testimonies of fallible eyewitnesses and newspaper reports are the only Indian primary sources we have.2 1.

EXTERNAL (for general distribution) AI Index: ASA 20/03/91 Distr: UA/SC 8 February 1991 Further information on UA 505/90 (ASA 20/26/90, 14 December 1990) - Death Penalty INDIA:Juman KHAN K. GURUSAMY Juman Khan After the Supreme Court rejected Juman Khan's writ petition on 4 December 1990, there was no legal avenue for clemency which could effectively be explored further. As yet no date has been set for his execution, but it could take place at any time, possibly in the near future. K. Gurusamy On 23 November the Supreme Court stayed the execution of K. Gurusamy to allow his lawyer to bring one more petition to appeal against his death sentence. The Supreme Court are due to hear this appeal in the first week of March 1991. FURTHER RECOMMENDED ACTION: Telegrams/telexes/express and airmail letters: - explaining that Amnesty International opposes the death penalty on the grounds that it violates the right to life and the right not to be subjected to cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment; - urging that the death sentences of Juman Khan and K. Gurusamy be commuted to life imprisonment; - stressing that the length of time that both men, but particularly K. Gurusamy, have spent awaiting execution is a strong humanitarian reason to commute their death sentences; - stressing that Juman Khan's conviction was based entirely on circumstantial evidence and that in such circumstances there is always an element of doubt about guilt and that executions should not be carried out if there is a possibility that an innocent person may be killed; - expressing concern at reports that Juman Khan was represented at his trial not by a lawyer of his choice but by a state-appointed lawyer who he claims was too inexperienced to provide him with an adequate defence.

Will he gain anything by it? Will it restore him to a control over his own life and destiny? In other words, will it lead to Swaraj for the hungry and spiritually starving millions?
