Between August 1947 and January 1950, India was a British dominion which, like Australia and Canada, recognized the king as her monarch and sovereign. This had not been the aim of the freedom movement whose clarion call, for decades, had been purna swaraj or complete independence, not dominion status. During this time, Indian institutions derived their power from the Indian Independence Act, 1947, a statute which had been enacted by Britain’s Parliament. Up to 1949, cases decided by the federal court, the precursor to the Supreme Court of India, could be appealed before the Privy Council in London.2 It was only on 26 January 1950, when the Constitution came into force,3 that India fully attained her independence.

The 24-day march from March 12 to April 5, 1930 was a tax resistance campaign against the British salt monopoly. 3. Based on Gandhi’s principle of non-violence or Satyagraha, the march marked the inauguration of the civil disobedience movement. 4. The Dandi march was easily the most significant organised movement against the British Raj after the non-cooperation movement of the early 1920s. 5. In all the attention that it drove from the national and international media and world leaders, it was truly a turning point in the Indian Independence movement. Why did Gandhi call for the Dandi March? 1. The 1882 Salt Act gave the British a monopoly in the manufacture and sale of salt.

  • Viability of Prison Privatization: Exploring Public-Private Partnership and Corporate Social Responsibility in the Prison Sector in India
    International Journal of Law and Legal Jurisprudence Studies :ISSN:2348-8212:Volume 3 Issue 4 234 VIABILITY OF PRISON PRIVATIZATION: EXPLORING PUBLIC-PRIVATE PARTNERSHIP AND CORPORATE SOCIAL RESPONSIBILITY IN THE PRISON SECTOR IN INDIA Konina Mandal, Anwesha Panigrahi* The concept of for-profit prison privatization dates back to almost as early as the 16th Century. A trend started by the United Kingdom, it enjoyed a modern comeback in the United States during the 1980s. Following them, numerous countries experimented with prison privatization. India has not yet considered the merits and demerits of complete privatization of the prison sector. However, it has started incorporating elements of privatization in it by accepting and developing on the Public- Private Partnership model. In this paper, an attempt has been made to trace out the history of private prisons in different countries in the world along with the advantages and disadvantages of privatization of prisons. A further attempt has been made to establish the viability of the rising concept of Public - Private Partnership Model in the prison sector in India and how the PPP model could lead to a backdoor entry for Corporate Social Responsibility to enter the arena of prisons in the country. I. INTRODUCTION “It is said that no one truly knows a nation until one has been inside its jails. A nation should not be judged by how it treats its highest citizens, but its lowest ones.” -Nelson Mandela "The degree of civilisation in a society can be judged by entering its prisons." -Dostoevsky Prisons all over the world was solely a State subject till the mid-twentieth century.

Dear Friends, It gives me a great deal of pleasure to present to you our Annual Progress Report. For CFAR, the year 2016-17 was a year of deepening our work of engaging communities, strengthening their knowledge and skills across major development issues such as Sanitation, Social Exclusion and Urban Poor Marginalisation and RMNCHA+ to name a few, and strengthening households plus families to address multiple vulnerabilities social security, economic security, health and violence. Across 51 settlements in 5 cities - Delhi, Jaipur, Kota, Jodhpur and Kolkata, we engaged communities to build a value chain to ensure their participation from designing and planning, to the delivery of sanitation services and ensuring its linkages with public health and safety of women and girls. The changes can be witnessed in the form of the Community Management Committees which were strengthened to lead the change they aimed at and use tools such as Public Hearings for improving the sanitation scenario and facilities in the basti. 2016-17 has also seen the finale of one of our flagship interventions of ensuring the mainstreaming and inclusion of sex workers, transgender persons and sexual minority groups in development schemes and programmes. While we consolidated activities across the 5 intervention States, we also focused on ensuring sustainability of the Single Window initiatives especially in Andhra Pradesh and Karnataka by building a cadre of community leadership skilled in training their peers on the essentials of social inclusion.

  • Vasant Moon and the Aura of Dr. BR Ambedkar
    SOCIAL TRENDS Journal of the Department of Sociology of North Bengal University Vol. 7, 31 March 2020; ISSN: 23486538 Peerreviewed National Journal UGCCARE listed 1 Development of a Dalit Self: Vasant Moon and the Aura of Dr. B. R. Ambedkar Saswati Biswas Abstract: The development of self and a sociological approach to the study of selfidentity are informed by mutual relationship between self and the society. The former impacts the society through individual actions reflected in the working of groups, organizations and institutions. Society on the other hand influences the individual through shared meanings and values which enables one to participate in social action and reflect upon oneself as the other. In the case of India where the Hindu society considers a group of people as avarnas also referred to as dalits or untouchables there is a great deal of complexity and layering in the interaction between self and society. The selves of the dalits evolve in constant interaction with the wider society through the complexities which till today are characterized by a great degree of exploitation and humiliation exercised by the upper castes. In this paper an attempt has been made to study the life of Vasant Moon which shows how a dalit person overcame the obstacles of life and evolved as a worthy member of his community under the influence of B.R Ambedkar who inspired and moulded the lives of innumerable dalits of a whole generation. Keywords: Dalits, Ambedkar, Buddhism, Self, literature, exploitation. Introduction The discipline of Sociology as it evolved in India is increasingly coming under the scanner for its near total disregard for the existence of a community of people within or periphery of the caste system that is the dalits who have always lived in the bottom or outside the caste hierarchy, were considered as untouchables and were at the receiving end of intense humiliation and extreme deprivation and exploitation.

  • Social Work in India's Criminal Justice Institutions
    Social Work in India's Case Study Criminal Justice Institutions: Series 1 - 2011 Need, Experiences and Challenges Sir Dorabji Tata Trust, one of the oldest, non-sectarian philanthropic organisations in India, was established in 1932 by Sir Dorabji Tata with the prime purpose of encouraging learning and research in the country, of meeting costs of relief during crises and calamities and of carrying out worthwhile charitable activities. In addition to Sir Dorabji Tata Trust, seven other Allied Trusts adopt a common approach to the causes they support and thus together are known as Sir Dorabji Tata Trust and the Allied Trusts. The Trusts’ vision of constructive philanthropy has been sensitive to the fast-growing needs of a developing nation, and it holds contemporary relevance as it continues to support projects that ensure inclusion as well as innovative enterprises in development. The Trusts make grants to NGOs in six social development sectors: Natural Resource Management and Rural Livelihoods; Urban Poverty and Livelihoods; Education; Health; Civil Society, Governance and Human Rights and Media, Art and Culture. Merit and need-based educational and medical grants are also given to individuals by the Trusts. This first case study endeavours to highlight the achievements and share the learning of the organisations, working in the field of Criminal Justice System, and who are supported by the Trusts.
