  • The History of Punjab Is Replete with Its Political Parties Entering Into Mergers, Post-Election Coalitions and Pre-Election Alliances
    COALITION POLITICS IN PUNJAB* PRAMOD KUMAR The history of Punjab is replete with its political parties entering into mergers, post-election coalitions and pre-election alliances. Pre-election electoral alliances are a more recent phenomenon, occasional seat adjustments, notwithstanding. While the mergers have been with parties offering a competing support base (Congress and Akalis) the post-election coalition and pre-election alliance have been among parties drawing upon sectional interests. As such there have been two main groupings. One led by the Congress, partnered by the communists, and the other consisting of the Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD) and Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). The Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) has moulded itself to joining any grouping as per its needs. Fringe groups that sprout from time to time, position themselves vis-à-vis the main groups to play the spoiler’s role in the elections. These groups are formed around common minimum programmes which have been used mainly to defend the alliances rather than nurture the ideological basis. For instance, the BJP, in alliance with the Akali Dal, finds it difficult to make the Anti-Terrorist Act, POTA, a main election issue, since the Akalis had been at the receiving end of state repression in the early ‘90s. The Akalis, in alliance with the BJP, cannot revive their anti-Centre political plank. And the Congress finds it difficult to talk about economic liberalisation, as it has to take into account the sensitivities of its main ally, the CPI, which has campaigned against the WTO regime. The implications of this situation can be better understood by recalling the politics that has led to these alliances.

  • The Abiding Binary: the Social and the Political in Modern India Prathama Banerjee
    4 The Abiding Binary: The Social and the Political in Modern India Prathama Banerjee The concept of governmentality has been crucial to the study of modern Indian history. Scholars have shown how colonial governmental techniques – reform, education, medicine, enumeration, classification, codification, survey and representation – came to produce in India critical social categories such as caste, religion, gender and ethnicity (Dirks, 2001; Hodges, 2004; Kalpagam, 2014; Stoler, 1995). Scholars have also discussed the continuities and discontinuities between colonial and postcolonial governmentality in order to specify the precise nature of the modern Indian state (Legg, 2006). Partha Chatterjee has gone further and described the postcolonial social as society of the ‘governed’ (as opposed to ‘citizens’) – the governed here being not just a policy category but also a political subjectivity, demanding ethico–poitical (though not juridico– civic) recognition (Chatterjee, 2004; Nigam, 2008). This chapter, pleads for a rethinking of the concept of governmentality, from a perspective, not merely of colonial difference but of historical difference in a wider sense. It proposes that the concept of governmentality, produced out of Foucault’s re-reading of European history, is not applicable in the same way to all histories of the world. This is not to say that governmentality must be abandoned as a concept but only that the concept needs to be supplemented by other narratives and other concepts if it has to work transhistorically. I shall make three basic arguments in this chapter. Firstly, I shall argue that modernity is not necessarily and not everywhere marked by a transition from sovereignty to governmentality. I am not merely referring to the fact of colonialism, which is nothing if not a routine (contra exceptional) mode of exercising violent sovereign power (Kolsky, 2010).

  • Politics of Water Resource Management in the Indus River Basin: a Study of the Partition of Punjab
    Liberal Arts and Social Sciences International Journal (LASSIJ) eISSN: 2664-8148 (Online) DOI: https://doi.org/10.47264/idea.lassij/4.2.6 Vol. 4, No. 2, (July-December 2020): 60-70 Research Article URL: https://www.ideapublishers.org/index.php/lassij Politics of Water Resource Management in the Indus River Basin: A Study of the Partition of Punjab Muhammad Nawaz Bhatti* Department of Politics and International Relations, University of Sargodha, Pakistan. Received: August 1, 2020 Published Online: November 14, 2020 Abstract The British Government of India divided the Muslim majority province of Punjab into Eastern and Western Punjab. But the partition line was drawn in a manner that headworks remained in India and irrigated land in Pakistan. The partition of Punjab was not scheduled in the original plan of the division of India. Why was it partitioned? To answer this question, the study in the first instance tries to explore circumstances, reasons, and conspiracies which led to the partition of Punjab which led to the division of the canal irrigation system and secondly, the impact of partition on water resource management in the Indus River Basin. Descriptive, historical, and analytical methods of research have been used to draw a conclusion. The study highlights the mindset of Indian National Congress to cripple down the newly emerging state of Pakistan that became a root cause of the partition of Punjab. The paper also highlights why India stopped water flowing into Pakistan on 1st April 1948 and the analysis also covers details about the agreement of 4th May 1948 and its consequences for Pakistan.

  • Lokpal and the Role of Media in Propping up Anti Corruption Movement in India
    International Journal of Social Science & Interdisciplinary Research__________________________________ ISSN 2277 3630 IJSSIR, Vol. 2 (3), MARCH (2013) Online available at indianresearchjournals.com LOKPAL AND THE ROLE OF MEDIA IN PROPPING UP ANTI CORRUPTION MOVEMENT IN INDIA DR. ATANU MOHAPATRA HOD, FACULTY OF MEDIA STUDIES MANAV RACHNA INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITY FARIDABAD ______________________________________________________________________________ ABSTRACT The existing devices for checks on elected and administrative officials have not been effective as the growing instances of corruption cases suggest. The Central Vigilance Commission (CVC) is designed to inquire into allegations of corruption by administrative officials only but cannot punish the guilty The CBI, the premier investigating agency of the country, functions under the supervision of the Ministry of Personnel, public grievances and pensions (under the Prime Minister) and is therefore not immune from political pressure during investigation it can be said, ―the CVC is independent but does not have powers while CBI has power but is not independent‖. As a result the first cannot punish while the latter cannot investigate fairly. All these have necessitated the creation of an independent and high powered Lokpal with its own investigation team. Unfortunately for last four decades, no effective act or institution was developed. As a result, a nation-wide movement could take place with the leadership of a Gandhian social activist. Most importantly, this was the time when the nation witnessed many corruption cases at various level and the intervention of media has helped in taking to its heights and made it a national movement. Hence, while analyzing the historical perspectives of Lokpal, this study would attempt to answer the most pertinent question whether the mainstream media or social media helped in giving shape for a huge movement.

  • Emergence of Punjabi Suba and Role Of
    P: ISSN NO.: 2321-290X RNI : UPBIL/2013/55327 VOL-4* ISSUE-5*January-2017 E: ISSN NO.: 2349-980X Shrinkhla Ek Shodhparak Vaicharik Patrika Emergence of Punjabi Suba and Role of Congress Party Abstract In the present research paper, the effort is to bring to light the role of Indian National Congress towards Punjabi Suba demand. The emergence of the demand for Punjabi Suba can be traced back to the 1909 Minto-Morley Reforms which first introduced the principle of separate electorates for Muslims. The concept of the Sikh State gathered momentum with the Muslim demand for Pakistan in 1940. Before the transfer of power Congress leaders including Mahatma Gandhi and Pt. Jawaharlal Nehru promised the Sikhs to given an area in the North where they could experience the glow of freedom without any fear and the Congress party never betrayed them. But after independence the attitude of the Congress party underwent change especially with regard to Punjab and Sikhs. Congress rejected the demand of Punjabi Suba on linguistic bases. After long struggle incomplete Punjabi Suba came into existence on 1 November 1966. Keywords: Minto-Morley, Separate electorates, Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, Mahatma Gandhi, Jawahar Lal Nehru, Lal Bahadur Shastri, Punjabi Zone, Hindi Zone, Pepsu Introduction Going back in the pages of History, the fact that comes to light is that the Congress and Akalis had cooperated with each other in 1937 elections, but wanted to fight elections independently. The Akali Dal fought the 1946 general elections to the Punjab Legislative Assembly on its own tickets, at many places opposing the Congress Party.
