  • Why New Delhi and Islamabad Need to Get Stakeholders on Board
    India-Pakistan Relations Why New Delhi and Islamabad Need to Get Stakeholders on Board Tridivesh Singh Maini Jan 1, 2016 Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi and his Pakistani counterpart, Nawaz Sharif, at a meeting in Lahore on December 25, 2015. Photo: PTI Interest in Pakistan cuts across party affiliations in the Indian Punjab. It is much the same story on the other side though the Pakistani Punjab is often hamstrung by political and military considerations. The border States in India and Pakistan have business, cultural and familial ties that must be harnessed by both governments to push the peace process, says Tridivesh Singh Maini. Prime Minister, Narendra Modi’s impromptu stopover at Lahore on December 25, 2015, on his way back from Moscow and Kabul, caught the media not just in India and Pakistan, but also outside, by surprise. (Though the halt was ostensibly to wish Prime Minister Nawaz Sharif on his birthday, the real import was hardly lost on Indo-Pak watchers) 1 . Such stopovers are a done thing in other parts of the world, especially in Europe. Yet, if Modi’s unscheduled halt was seen as dramatic and as a possible game changer, it was in no small measure due to the protracted acrimony between the neighbours, made worse by mutual hardening of stands post the Mumbai attack. In the event, the European style hobnobbing seemed to find favour with both PMs and as much is suggested by this report in The Indian Express 2 . However, such spontaneity is not totally alien in the Indo-Pak context. Former Prime Minister Manmohan Singh’s invitation to his counterpart, Yousuf Raza Gilani, for the World Cup Semi-final 2011, which faced domestic criticism was one such gesture 3 .

In the latter category of cases the question raised is either lack of sanction in terms of Section 197 of the Code of Criminal Procedure, 1973 (in short the 'Code') or the legality thereof. It is the stand of the appellant in each case that the proceedings were initiated on the basis of complaints which were lodged mala fide and as an act of political vendetta.

    Government will Trap Indian in Iraq By : INVC Team Published On : 26 Jun, 2014 12:02 PM IST INVC, Delhi, Punjab Chief Minister Mr. Parkash Singh Badal today called up former Indian Ambassador to Iraq Mr. Suresh Reddy, who has been specially deputed by the Government of India (GoI) to oversee the rescue operations of Indians trapped in the strife torn country, to ensure safe and prompt return of the Punjabis to the state. The Chief Minister also urged Mr. Reddy to sort out the issues of those Punjabis who were willing to comeback but their employers were reluctant to relieve them due to certain reasons adding that the GoI must get any issue related to the employers settled through direct intervention of Labour department of the Iraqi National Government on priority. On the other hand, Mr. Badal categorically cleared that any Punjabi who was willing to return Punjab but hesitating to do so for the financial burden incurred by him/ his family on account of hefty loans/ advance money taken for their immigration to Iraq, should come back to their motherland as the state government would bear such entire expenditure incurred by them or their family. He said that it was the bounden duty of the state government to help the distressed Punjabis and their families in this hour of crisis by relieving them of such mental agony. Meanwhile, the Joint Secretary (Gulf and Haj) from Ministry of External Affairs Mr. Mridul Kumar called on the Chief Minister at Kapurthala House this morning to apprise him about the initiatives taken by the GoI for the safe and early evacuation of Indians especially the Punjabis stuck over in Iraqi civil war.

  • President Confers Coveted Padma Vibushan Award to Badal by : INVC Team Published on : 30 Mar, 2015 12:48 PM IST
    President confers coveted padma vibushan award to badal By : INVC Team Published On : 30 Mar, 2015 12:48 PM IST INVC NEWS New Delhi, President of India Mr. Pranab Mukherjee today conferred the coveted Padma Vibhushan Award to the Punjab Chief Minister Mr. Parkash Singh Badal at a Civil Investiture Ceremony held in Rashtrapati Bhavan this morning. Disclosing this here today a spokesperson of the Chief Minister’s Office said that Sardar Badal was given the award by the President in the presence of Vice President of India Dr. Hameed Ansari and Prime Minister Mr. Narendra Modi besides several Union Ministers. The citation of the Chief Minister presented on this occasion reads as “Sardar Parkash Singh Badal is an Indian politician, who has been the Chief Minister of Punjab for four terms previously - from 1969-71, 1977-80, 1997-2002, 2007-2012 and is currently the Chief Minister of the state for the fifth term. Few in this country can claim to have remained in the forefront of public life for almost the entire period of the post-Independence India as he has been, making him the grand patriarch on the Indian political scene. Born on December 8, 1927 in village Abul Khurana, Sardar Badal did his graduation from FC College Lahore. He entered politics in 1947 and became the Sarpanch of his village. He was elected to the state legislative assembly first in 1957. He was re- elected to Vidhan Sabha in 1969.

  • The Politics of Partial Reforms in Punjab's Electricity Sector
    Protecting Power: The Politics of Partial Reforms in Punjab’s Electricity Sector Working Paper Mapping Power Project Ashwini K. Swain May 2017 Project Overview This working paper was written as part of a collaborative research project, Mapping Power, which aims to provide a state-level analysis of India’s electricity governance. The project is coordinated by Sunila S. Kale (University of Washington, Seattle), Navroz K. Dubash (Centre for Policy Research), and Ranjit Bharvirkar (Regulatory Assistance Project), and carried out by a team of 12 researchers. The research explores the views and perspectives of various stakeholders and organizations in each state and how they will be affected by new initiatives in India’s electricity sector, as well as the forces and constraints that shape decision-making in electricity governance. Using data from qualitative interviews with key informants buttressed by quantitative data, the research team covered 15 states as part of the analysis: Andhra Pradesh, Bihar, Delhi, Gujarat, Jharkhand, Karnataka, Madhya Pradesh, Maharashtra, Odisha, Punjab, Rajasthan, Tamil Nadu, Uttarakhand, Uttar Pradesh, and West Bengal. You can learn more about Mapping Power as well as access other working papers in the series here: http://www.cprindia.org/projects/mapping-power. Acknowledgements Author: Ashwini K. Swain, Executive Director, Centre for Energy, Environment & Resources, New Delhi, [email protected]. Preparation of this paper was supported by the Regulatory Assistance Project. This paper was informed, in part, by 29 interviews with a broad range of electricity sector stakeholders that were conducted on a not-for-attribution basis. The author wishes to thank the interviewees who have generously took some of their valuable time to share their perspectives.

  • The Shiromani Akali Dal and Emerging Ideological Cleavages in Contemporary Sikh Politics in Punjab: Integrative Regionalism Versus Exclusivist Ethnonationalism
    143 Jugdep Chima: Ideological Cleavages in Sikh Politics The Shiromani Akali Dal and Emerging Ideological Cleavages in Contemporary Sikh Politics in Punjab: Integrative Regionalism versus Exclusivist Ethnonationalism Jugdep Singh Chima Hiram College, USA ________________________________________________________________ This article describes the emerging ideological cleavages in contemporary Sikh politics, and attempts to answer why the Shiromani Akali Dal has taken a moderate stance on Sikh ethnic issues and in its public discourse in the post-militancy era? I put forward a descriptive argument that rhetorical/ideological cleavages in contemporary Sikh politics in Punjab can be differentiated into two largely contrasting poles. The first is the dominant Akali Dal (Badal) which claims to be the main leadership of the Sikh community, based on its majority in the SGPC and its ability to form coalition majorities in the state assembly in Punjab. The second pole is an array of other, often internally fractionalized, Sikh political and religious organizations, whose claim for community leadership is based on the espousal of aggressive Sikh ethnonationalism and purist religious identity. The “unity” of this second pole within Sikh politics is not organizational, but rather, is an ideological commitment to Sikh ethnonationalism and political opposition to the moderate Shiromani Akali Dal. The result of these two contrasting “poles” is an interesting ethno-political dilemma in which the Akali Dal has pragmatic electoral success in democratic elections
