Political Parties and Populist Policies in Contemporary India: Some Reflections on AAP by Sumona DasGupta 15-29 Political Parties and Populist Policies in Contemporary India: Some Reflections on AAP ∗ Sumona DasGupta Introduction There is little definitional clarity around the term populism. Though the use of this term has proliferated in the last decade, in common parlance there appears to be a pejorative even alarmist connotation associated with it because of its association with authoritarian leaders and policies that exploit the fears and anxieties of the masses for short term gains. A more nuanced view of populism however situates it in the context of the disillusionment of working classes with the crisis of what Nancy Fraser calls modern hegemonic, globalized, financialized forms of capitalism. Some have even viewed it as a counter concept to neoliberal politics which remains committed to free movement of capital and deregulated finance despite bringing in some mitigating politics of recognition (Frazer 2018). Regardless of the light in which populism is viewed there are mixed views on how it is connected with democracy and democratic institutions. In this paper we move away from a value laden connotation of populism as an ideology and stay with an understanding that resonates the most easily with an Indian context - namely any policy, strategy, and movement that is redistributive in nature and as such favours the common person particularly those in subordinate positions, over the elite typically represented by large business and financial interests.

Coleman, Chief Agriculture and Fisheries Division Abstract This report describes and analyzes policies and other factors that affect U.S. agricultural exports to India. The findings suggest that India’s high agricultural tariffs are a significant impediment to U.S. agricultural exports and that certain Indian nontariff measures (NTMs), including sanitary and phyosanitary measures, substantially limit or effectively prohibit certain U.S. agricultural products. Agriculture is vital to India’s economy, accounting for a substantial share of employment (60 percent) and GDP (17 percent).
  • Lessons from Indian Flagship Programmes: the Disconnect for Evaluation Framework 1

    Lessons from Indian Flagship Programmes: the Disconnect for Evaluation Framework 1

    Lessons from Indian Flagship Programmes: The Disconnect for Evaluation Framework 1 Abstract This paper critically examines the management information system (MIS) in thirteen Indian flagship programmes that are under operation for quite sometimes now. Yet the MIS for these programmes has not reached maturity and as many as four programmes do not have any MIS. Clearly, there is a disconnect among the information gathering, monitoring and measuring impacts in the development programmes. Key Words: Management information system, Flagship programmes, Log-frame hierarchy, Result-based monitoring and evaluation, Implementation framework Introduction The MIS plays a critical role in the implementation of programme in terms of monitoring periodic progress. A well designed MIS facilitates flow of information among various levels and enables setting up of the necessary feedback mechanism for planning and management of a programme, project or policy. A comprehensive MIS is a necessary condition for taking informed and timely decisions including those related to operational, strategic and tactical ones. A well designed management information system (MIS) must be simple and easy to comprehend by the different stakeholders of the programme at national, sub-national and community levels; and it should provide reliable information. The information should be specific, accurate and verifiable; and facilitate timely management decision in terms of frequency and flow of information (i.e. a two-way feedback system in a decentralized framework), and management of database. Information generated by the system should be easy to access, process and use thereby facilitating wider dissemination and it should be amenable to computer software. However, literature on information system in the national level planning and decision making process is scarce and most of the literature is contextualized to organizations that facilitates managers to take various decisions (Gupta, 1996).

INDIAN TOURISM INFRASTRUCTURE - Investment Opportunities & Challenges 3 4 INDIAN TOURISM INFRASTRUCTURE - Investment Opportunities & Challenges FOREWORD Travel and tourism, the largest service industry in India was worth US$234bn in 2018 – a 19% year- on-year increase – the third largest foreign exchange earner for India with a 17.9% growth in Foreign Exchange Earnings (in Rupee Terms) in March 2018 over March 2017. According to The World Travel and Tourism Council, tourism generated ₹16.91 lakh crore (US$240 billion) or 9.2% of India’s GDP in 2018 and supported 42.673 million jobs, 8.1% of its total employment. The sector is predicted to grow at an annual rate of 6.9% to ₹32.05 lakh crore (US$460 billion) by 2028 (9.9% of GDP). The Ministry has been actively working towards the development of quality tourism infrastructure at various tourist destinations and circuits in the States / Union Territories by sanctioning expenditure budgets across schemes like SWADESH DARSHAN and PRASHAD. The Ministry of Tourism has been actively promoting India as a 365 days tourist destination with the introduction of niche tourism products in the country like Cruise, Adventure, Medical, Wellness, Golf, Polo, MICE Tourism, Eco-tourism, Film Tourism, Sustainable Tourism, etc. to overcome ‘seasonality’ challenge in tourism.

    Janani Suraksha Yojana Guidelines for Implementation

    Janani Suraksha Yojana Guidelines for Implementation Ministry of Health & Family Welfare Government of India 2 JSY Guidelines Janani Suraksha Yojana Janani Suraksha Yojana (JSY) under the overall umbrella of National Rural Health Mission (NRHM) is being proposed by way of modifying the existing National Maternity Benefit Scheme (NMBS). While NMBS is linked to provision of better diet for pregnant women from BPL families, JSY integrates the cash assistance with antenatal care during the pregnancy period, institutional care during delivery and immediate post-partum period in a health centre by establishing a system of coordinated care by field level health worker. The JSY would be a 100% centrally sponsored scheme. 2. Vision w To reduce over all maternal mortality ratio and infant mortality rate, and w To increase institutional deliveries in BPL families. 3. Target Group All pregnant women belonging to the below poverty line (BPL) households and w Of the age of 19 years or above w Up to two live births. Note 1: The benefits would be extended to all women from BPL families of 10 low performing states namely 8 EAG states (Uttar Pradesh, Uttaranchal, Madhya Pradesh, Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan, Bihar, Jharkhand and Orissa) and the states of Assam and J&K even after the third live birth if the mother, of her own accord chooses to undergo sterilization in the health facility where she delivered, immediately after the delivery. Satisfaction of the Medical officer through a process, about the number of living children of the expectant mother would be a pre-condition to availing the benefit of this scheme.
