  • VIVEKANANDA INTERNATIONAL FOUNDATION About
    Policies & Perspectives VIVEKANANDA INTERNATIONAL FOUNDATION Pathetic Plight of India’s Opposition Ranks Rajesh Singh 30 May 2017 With the Government led by Prime Minister Narendra Modi entering into its fourth year in office, various surveys conducted across the country have indicated the following: Modi remains immensely popular among the people; his leadership is considered decisive and firm; his Government is seen as pro-poor but not anti- industry; some of the regime’s actions, such as last year’s surgical strikes into Pakistan-occupied Kashmir and the de-monetisation decision, have received popular acclaim; the Government is seen as corruption-free; the economy is back on track even if adequate job-creation remains an issue. The surveys have also shown that, if general elections were to be held today or as scheduled in May 2019, the BJP and its allies under Modi’s leadership would be re-elected with a thumping majority. In short, after three years in office, the Government has the same high popular appeal as it did when it came to power. If this is not worrying enough for the opposition parties, there is more. Most respondents in the surveys believed that the Opposition had lost touch with the masses; it did not have a strong narrative to take on Prime Minister Modi and his Government; it lacked a strong leadership; it had lost credibility; it had thrown in the towel well before the grand contest was to happen. The more the opposition parties try to forge unity — as in the case of the presidential election — the more they are seen to be admitting to their incapacity of taking on the ruling dispensation on their own individual strength.

  • Zakir Naik: What Did I Do to Earn the Tags of ‘Dr Terror’, ‘Hate Monger’? Islamic Scholar Dr
    www.Asia Times.US NRI Global Edition Email: [email protected] September 2016 Vol 7, Issue 9 Zakir Naik: What did I do to earn the tags of ‘Dr Terror’, ‘Hate Monger’? Islamic scholar Dr. Zakir Naik wrote an open letter to Indians called ‘Five Questions and an Appeal’ where he lamented about being targeted and labeled a ‘terror preacher’ in India. In the letter, Naik said, “Of 150 countries where I’m respected and my talks are welcomed, I’m being called a terrorist influencer in my own country. What an irony. Why now, when I’ve been doing the same thing for over 25 years?”. Naik, 51, is an Islamic preacher, who founded the Islamic Research Foundation in 1991 when he started Dawah or religious preaching. His lectures mostly revolve around how Islam is superior to all other faiths. While he claims to be an advocate of interfaith dialogue, his preaching’s’ reinforce all the stereotypes which exist against Muslims. Following reports that one of the militants of Dhaka terror attack was inspired by Naik’s misinterpretations of Islam, there are growing demand for strict action against him. In the letter, Naik asks why he has become the enemy number one for the State and Central government. “It has been over two months since the ghastly terror attack in Dhaka, and over one month since I’ve been asking myself what exactly have I done to become the enemy number one of the media as well as the State and Central Gov- ernment,” wrote Naik. × and justice. He also questioned the repeated investigations on him by government agencies.

    THE INDIA FREEDOM REPORT JANUARY 2016-APRIL 2017 TheHoot.org JOURNALISTS UNDER ATTACK NEWS CENSORSHIP DIGITAL CENSORSHIP FREE SPEECH AND THE COURTS DILUTING THE RIGHT TO INFORMATION INTERNET SHUTDOWNS CENSORSHIP OF THE ARTS 2 Over the last 16 months, issues of press freedom, freedom of expression, online freedom and personal freedoms have come together to produce an overall sense of shrinking liberty not experienced in recent years. On the occasion of World Press Freedom Day 2017 it becomes important to view the level of press freedom in India in the wider context of societal freedom. The press cannot be truly free when facilitating freedoms such as the Right to Information and the Right to Internet, and the freedom of expression of the creative community, are shrinking. JOURNALISTS UNDER ATTACK The journalist assaulted in Chirala. ETV video grab, YouTube. In the period being reported on, 54 attacks on journalists in India were reported in the media, according to the Hoot’s compilation. The actual number will certainly be bigger, because last week Minister of State for Home Affairs Hansraj Ahir said during question hour in the Lok Sabha that 142 attacks on journalists took place between 2014-15. 3 Though seven journalists were killed, reasonable evidence of their journalism being the motive for the murder is available only in one case. The stories behind each of the attacks reveal a clear and persistent pattern. Investigative reporting is becoming increasingly dangerous. Journalists who venture out into the field to investigate any story, be it sand mining, stone quarrying, illegal construction, police brutality, medical negligence, an eviction drive, election campaigns, or civic administration corruption, are under attack.

    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Do Criminal Politicians Deliver?: Evidence from India’s Employment Guarantee and Hindu Holidays A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science by Galen Patrick Murray 2020 c Copyright by Galen Patrick Murray 2020 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Do Criminal Politicians Deliver?: Evidence from India’s Employment Guarantee and Hindu Holidays by Galen Patrick Murray Doctor of Philosophy in Political Science University of California, Los Angeles, 2020 Professor Daniel Posner, Chair In India, politicians facing criminal charges are routinely elected at higher rates. In this dis- sertation, I investigate three primary questions to better understand criminal politicians’ electoral success and performance in office: 1) Do criminal politicians deliver superior access to social wel- fare programs relative to clean politicians? 2) Do criminal politicians target benefits to co-partisans at higher rates than clean politicians? 3) Do voters reward criminal politicians for delivering more constituency service than clean politicians? On the one hand, powerful dons may be less responsive to voters’ needs, banking on clout to keep voters in line. On the other hand, previous literature and my fieldwork suggest a more Machiavellian strategy, where criminal politicians use both violence and deep pockets to distribute resources to voters. I present two key arguments to explain criminal politicians’ distributive advantages. First, I contend that criminal politicians core assets of money, muscle and networks make them particularly suited to both deliver more state benefits and target co-partisans. Second, I identify a trade-off that candidates face between accruing enough capital to fund campaigns and remaining rooted in the constituency to provide personalized service to voters.

  • Criminalization of Politics in India
    [ VOLUME 5 I ISSUE 4 I OCT.– DEC. 2018] E ISSN 2348 –1269, PRINT ISSN 2349-5138 Criminalization of Politics in India Sunita Kaler Assistant Professor, Department Political-Science, Guru Nanak Khalsa College, Sultanpur, Lodhi(KPT) Received: July 13, 2018 Accepted: August 23, 2018 ABSTRACT At present we very often come across the words criminalization of politics Criminalization of Politics means that the criminals entering the politics and contesting elections and even getting elected .The root of the problem lies in the country’s poor governance capacity .In India, it is not a new phenomenon. Data from the last three general elections shows candidates with criminal cases were three times more likely to win than a “clean” candidate. The criminal candidates of any constituency can use illegal means to stop other candidates from contesting elections, use the weapon of intimidation to stop supporter of other candidate to cast vote and use of money power to get vote in his favour. Such candidates, when elected, seek to recover their expenses besides securing a corpus for the future election as quickly as possible, especially in the era of coalition governments with slight stability. The roots of the most apposite challenges faced by Indian politics today can be traced to the lack of intra-party democracy in candidate selection and party elections. The lack of transparency in ticket distributions by political parties is also root cause of this problem .The concern for corrupt and criminal-free politics needs more emphasis by the Election Commission and Supreme Court, in order to free politics from criminals.
