    Cover Story MURDERS ATHOME Murder has a terrible new face, new motive and a new address.Across urban India, seemingly normal people kill their closest relatives in the name of love, sex or jealousy. By Damayanti Datta he apex court will be looking into pillow covers and bed sheets. What is happening?” asked Justice A.K. Ganguly, on January 6, while hearing an appeal from Arushi’s parents, Rajesh and Nupur Talwar. He refused to examine bed linen, a piece of evidence Tin the murder of the teenager at the Talwars’ Noida home in May 2008. His verdict was clear: the Arushi Talwar murder trial would begin on February 4 at a Ghaziabad court. The Talwars, who had been using the legal process to delay trial, had finally run out of options. Accused of killing their teenage daughter and the domestic help, they now face criminal proceedings to prove their innocence beyond all doubt. A lot more than bloodstained linen will now be under judicial scrutiny. Across urban India, bedrooms have become dangerous are- nas, of war, not love. The enemy is within, waiting to strike.

  • The Trend of Violence on the Indian Screen & Its Influence on Children
    The Trend of Violence on the Indian Screen & its Influence on Children by Kanti Kumar September 1999 Is violence shown on TV the main reason for the increase in violence by children, teenagers and society in general? I was awarded the K. K. Birla Foundation Fellowship for Journalists in October 1998 to study and write on this topic. This report is the result of the study that I carried out over 12 months during 1998-99. Acknowledgement This study would not have been possible without the significant support that the K. K.

  • The Nation State and Modern Sport
    TIF - The Nation State and Modern Sport MUKUL KESAVAN August 6, 2021 Follow the flag: A sea of Indian flags at the at the Melbourne Cricket Ground during the 2015 World Cup. | Wikimedia 'National feeling is not something that has been injected into sport by swaggering players, corrupt politicians, and a scheming media looking to boost ratings; it is native to modern sport, something that is built into its historical evolution.' I think I began to think about sport and nationalism a couple of years ago, when the Indian cricket team decided to take the field wearing specially commissioned military fatigue caps. This was Mahendra Singh Dhoni’s idea and Virat Kohli, who was captain by then, supported it enthusiastically. The gesture was made in solidarity with the soldiers who had lost their lives at Pulwama. The team donated a substantial sum of money for the welfare of the soldiers’ bereaved families. Dhoni is keen on the military. He is a colonel in the Territorial Army. In the 2019 World Cup, he had to be asked by the International Cricket Council (ICC) to remove regimental insignia from his wicket keeping gloves. In that camouflage-cap match, Dhoni and the Indian team literally embodied George Orwell’s famous description of international sport: "War minus the shooting." Orwell’s phrase has been used so often and so widely that it has become detached from its historical context. It Page 1 www.TheIndiaForum.in August 6, 2021 was prompted by his growing recognition of the political symbolism of sport, as a highly visible tool of nationalism.
