    n 052 im 002 Delhi’s Moot Court Hall named after alumnus Chief Justice of India 14.01.2016 The Hon’ble Mr Justice Y K Sabharwal Mr Justice Y K Sabharwal BA Hons 1961 Hindu LLB 1964 36th Chief Justice of India 1999 – 2000 Former Judge High Court of Delhi Chief Justice High Court of Bombay Passed away 03.07.2015 Jaitley inaugurates Y K Sabharwal Moot Court hall at National Law University Delhi NEW DELHI: Union finance minister Arun Jaitley on Thursday recalled late former Chief Justice of India YK Sabharwal as one of the rare judges who was not only fair but also fearless. He had the “ability to strike” when it was required, the Minister said. Speaking at the inauguration of a moot court hall in Delhi’s National Law University (NLU) — dedicated to the former CJI , Jaitley said Justice Sabharwal was a tough judge but never sat on the bench with fixated views. “He had no likes or dislikes and had no friends in court. But his personality outside was totally different,” Jaitley reminisced, recalling his association with the former CJI who made tremendous contribution to the field of Law through his judgements. Some of the important verdicts delivered by him included declaring President’s Rule in Bihar unconstitutional and opening to judicial review the laws placed in the Ninth Schedule. A Moot Court Hall in his name in a premier law school was a fit dedication to the former CJI, Jaitley said. The Minister added : “A specialised Moot Court hall is a rare speciality and for a law school to have one is commendable.” Justice Dalveer Bhandari, Judge of International Court of Justice, spoke of how moot courts had become an integral part of legal education.

  • Copyright 2018 Debojoy Chanda
    Copyright 2018 Debojoy Chanda RACIALIZING WHITE RESIDUES: SEDITIOUS ANGLO-INDIANS AND OTHERS BY DEBOJOY CHANDA DISSERTATION Submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English in the Graduate College of the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, 2018 Urbana, Illinois Doctoral Committee: Associate Professor Anustup Basu, Chair Associate Professor Susan Koshy Associate Professor Manisha Basu Associate Professor James Hansen ii ABSTRACT My dissertation interrogates the discursive residues of the notorious colonially instituted Anglo-Indian question in decolonized India. To problematize these residues, I structure my dissertation as a fragmented genealogy of default colonial and post-colonial perceptions of Anglo-Indians as sexually and racially ‘fallen.’ Via this piecemeal genealogy, I ultimately argue that Anglo-Indians inhabit what Anglo-Indian anti-racism activist Cedric Dover would call mongrel bodies. These bodies, given their infinite and indeterminate racial intermixture, are in a state of continual flux, thus defying reduction to a question in firmly delineable terms of race. Complicating the Anglo-Indian question further, I read into some figurations of ‘fallen’ Anglo-Indians from the genealogy, retrieving traces of acts by which these figurations protested their condensation into a racial question. As I show, these figurations did so by performing the intermixed character of their mongrel bodies at levels that included biopolitics, law, gender, citizenship, literature, censorship, and language. Examining these performances of intermixture, I suggest that in the final reckoning, the unavoidable factor of racial indeterminacy should be perceived as straddling not only Anglo-Indians but all groups. The end of the decolonized Indian nation-state, I accordingly gesture, is to recognize mongrelism as an inevitable phenomenon— one that fractures closed categories of race and community.

  • Chennai and I
    August 22, 2014 Chennai and I The Hindu As Madras Day celebrations come to an end, four Melange writers examine their chemistry with the city. Photos: S.R. Raghunathan, G. Sribharath, Sam Kumar, V. Ganesan, H. Vibhu The way we were It was so quiet you could hear the birdsong… DEEPA ALEXANDER Madras has been home since I first arrived as a toddler on a monsoon morning in the 70s, in a rexine-backed white Ambassador from yet another coastal town. Although I was born here in a family that has lived in Madras since the early 1900s, I wandered away often, for a childhood in the districts, brief stays abroad and in cantonments across India. But then it was in this city, which swamps you with sweat, that I studied, worked and watched the moon hang low over the bay. Home was an old Chettiar house lined with casuarina trees that reached for the stars and dropped their cones in time to be picked and painted for Christmas. An orchid flowering in the garden was seen as something of a miracle in this water-starved city but the guava tree under which we lovingly laid to rest our many dogs thrived throughout the year. Lights out was at 9 o‟clock and only a stray car horn and the rattle of the beat constable‟s bicycle broke the silence of the night. He‟d stop by at our gate to sign the „beat book‟. He still does, only now he arrives on a swanky bike emblazoned with the words „Beat Officer‟.
