  • Chapter 43 Electoral Statistics
    CHAPTER 43 ELECTORAL STATISTICS 43.1 India is a constitutional democracy with a parliamentary system of government, and at the heart of the system is a commitment to hold regular, free and fair elections. These elections determine the composition of the Government, the membership of the two houses of parliament, the state and union territory legislative assemblies, and the Presidency and vice-presidency. Elections are conducted according to the constitutional provisions, supplemented by laws made by Parliament. The major laws are Representation of the People Act, 1950, which mainly deals with the preparation and revision of electoral rolls, the Representation of the People Act, 1951 which deals, in detail, with all aspects of conduct of elections and post election disputes. 43.2 The Election Commission of India is an autonomous, quasi-judiciary constitutional body of India. Its mission is to conduct free and fair elections in India. It was established on 25 January, 1950 under Article 324 of the Constitution of India. Since establishment of Election Commission of India, free and fair elections have been held at regular intervals as per the principles enshrined in the Constitution, Electoral Laws and System. The Constitution of India has vested in the Election Commission of India the superintendence, direction and control of the entire process for conduct of elections to Parliament and Legislature of every State and to the offices of President and Vice- President of India. The Election Commission is headed by the Chief Election Commissioner and other Election Commissioners. There was just one Chief Election Commissioner till October, 1989.

  • Growing Cleavages in India? Evidence from the Changing Structure of Electorates, 1962-2014
    WID.world WORKING PAPER N° 2019/05 Growing Cleavages in India? Evidence from the Changing Structure of Electorates, 1962-2014 Abhijit Banerjee Amory Gethin Thomas Piketty March 2019 Growing Cleavages in India? Evidence from the Changing Structure of Electorates, 1962-2014 Abhijit Banerjee, Amory Gethin, Thomas Piketty* January 16, 2019 Abstract This paper combines surveys, election results and social spending data to document the long-run evolution of political cleavages in India. From a dominant- party system featuring the Indian National Congress as the main actor of the mediation of political conflicts, Indian politics have gradually come to include a number of smaller regionalist parties and, more recently, the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP). These changes coincide with the rise of religious divisions and the persistence of strong caste-based cleavages, while education, income and occupation play little role (controlling for caste) in determining voters’ choices. We find no evidence that India’s new party system has been associated with changes in social policy. While BJP-led states are generally characterized by a smaller social sector, switching to a party representing upper castes or upper classes has no significant effect on social spending. We interpret this as evidence that voters seem to be less driven by straightforward economic interests than by sectarian interests and cultural priorities. In India, as in many Western democracies, political conflicts have become increasingly focused on identity and religious-ethnic conflicts

  • Failure of the Mahagathbandhan
    ISSN (Online) - 2349-8846 Failure of the Mahagathbandhan In the Lok Sabha elections of 2019 in Uttar Pradesh, the contest was keenly watched as the alliance of the Samajwadi Party, Bahujan Samaj Party, and Rashtriya Lok Dal took on the challenge against the domination of the Bharatiya Janata Party. What contributed to the continued good performance of the BJP and the inability of the alliance to assert its presence is the focus of analysis here. In the last decade, politics in Uttar Pradesh (UP) has seen radical shifts. The Lok Sabha elections 2009 saw the Congress’s comeback in UP. It gained votes in all subregions of UP and also registered a sizeable increase in vote share among all social groups. The 2012 assembly elections gave a big victory to the Samajwadi Party (SP) when it was able to get votes beyond its traditional voters: Muslims and Other Backward Classes (OBCs). The 2014 Lok Sabha elections saw the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) winning 73 seats with its ally Apna Dal. It was facilitated by the consolidation of voters cutting across caste and class, in favour of the party. Riding on the popularity of Narendra Modi, the BJP was able to trounce the regional parties and emerge victorious in the 2017 assembly elections as well. But, against the backdrop of anti-incumbency, an indifferent economic record, and with the coming together of the regional parties, it was generally believed that the BJP would not be able to replicate its success in 2019. However, the BJP’s performance in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections shows its continued domination over the politics of UP.

They point to the particular historical trajectory of interaction of state-making leaders and other social forces, and the divergent authority structure that took shape, as underpinning this difference. In Manipur, where social forces retained their authority, the state’s autonomy was compromised. This affected its capacity, including that to resolve group conflicts. Here powerful social forces politicized their narrow identities to capture state power, leading to competitive mobilisation and conflicts.

  • CHAPTER-S EMERGENCE and EVOLUTION of SIKKIM DEMOCRATIC FRONT AS a POLITICAL PARTY CHAPTER 5 Emergence and Evolution of Sikkim Democratic Front As a Political Party
    CHAPTER-S EMERGENCE AND EVOLUTION OF SIKKIM DEMOCRATIC FRONT AS A POLITICAL PARTY CHAPTER 5 Emergence and Evolution of Sikkim Democratic Front as a Political Party 1. Dissention within Sikkim Sangram Parishad It has already been discussed in the last part of the previous chapter about the feud between Chamling and Bhandari and the former's expulsion from the party on the ground of ideological differences. In this chapter, we will try to assess the reason behind the dissention and the emergence of a new state political outfit, Sikkim Democratic Front (SDF) and its role in the state politics. Pawan Chamling, a son of a farmer from Yangang, south Sikkim had first started his political career as the President of his village Yangang Gram Panchayat Unit in 1982 and became an MLA of Damthang Constituency in 1985. He slowly climbed up the political ladder to become a Cabinet Minister in SSP Government in 1989 and was the Minister- in-charge for Industries, Printing and Information & Public Relations. (Commemorative issue:25 years of Statehood) On his days as the SSP minister for two and half years, there started growing a discord on principles and practices of politics between him and the then Chief Minister Nar Bahadur Bhandari. The differences between him and the leadership of the SSP were neither petty nor personal. There were substantial differences on issues of principle and ideology. (B B Gurung) 2012) (Bali) 2003) It was alleged that during Bhandari's rule, he ruled as a monarch without a crown. The fundamental rights of speech and expression granted by the constitution to its citizens became CHAPTER 5 : Emergence and Evolution of Sikkim Democratic Front as a Political Party imprisoned within the bounds of Mintokgang.

    IOSR Journal of Humanities And Social Science (IOSR-JHSS) Volume 25, Issue 8, Series 4 (August. 2020) 17-22 e-ISSN: 2279-0837, p-ISSN: 2279-0845. www.iosrjournals.org Anassessment of the Role of Political Partiesin the Socio- Economic Development of Mizoram F. LALRAMHLUNI Research Scholar, Department of Political Science Mizoram University (MZU) Abstract Political parties are essential to the functioning of democracy; they performed varied functions within and outside the realm of politics. Their role in political mobilization, governance, the formulation and implementation of economic and social policy, ethnic conflict and the working of democracy has been intensified and gained importance in the democratic set up. Their centrality arises from the fact that they are the key link between the individual and the state, the state and the society. Political parties provide crucial connection between social process and policy makers, and influence debate and policies affecting the interest of various social groups in the political system. Election is an important part of democratic process. Political parties issue their agendas, goals and objectives to the voters in the form of election manifesto. It is a statement by political party what it will do if they win the elections. Political parties are evaluated and examined their performances based on their election manifestos. This paper aims to analyse and seek the role of political parties in socio- economic development of Mizoram through their electoral performances and their policies since the attainment of statehood in 1986 till the last State Legislative Assembly Elections of 2018. ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- --------- Date of Submission: 25-07-2020 Date of Acceptance: 09-08-2020 ----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- ---------- I.

  • The State, Democracy and Social Movements
    The Dynamics of Conflict and Peace in Contemporary South Asia This book engages with the concept, true value, and function of democracy in South Asia against the background of real social conditions for the promotion of peaceful development in the region. In the book, the issue of peaceful social development is defined as the con- ditions under which the maintenance of social order and social development is achieved – not by violent compulsion but through the negotiation of intentions or interests among members of society. The book assesses the issue of peaceful social development and demonstrates that the maintenance of such conditions for long periods is a necessary requirement for the political, economic, and cultural development of a society and state. Chapters argue that, through the post-colo- nial historical trajectory of South Asia, it has become commonly understood that democracy is the better, if not the best, political system and value for that purpose. Additionally, the book claims that, while democratization and the deepening of democracy have been broadly discussed in the region, the peace that democracy is supposed to promote has been in serious danger, especially in the 21st century. A timely survey and re-evaluation of democracy and peaceful development in South Asia, this book will be of interest to academics in the field of South Asian Studies, Peace and Conflict Studies and Asian Politics and Security. Minoru Mio is a professor and the director of the Department of Globalization and Humanities at the National Museum of Ethnology, Japan. He is one of the series editors of the Routledge New Horizons in South Asian Studies and has co-edited Cities in South Asia (with Crispin Bates, 2015), Human and International Security in India (with Crispin Bates and Akio Tanabe, 2015) and Rethinking Social Exclusion in India (with Abhijit Dasgupta, 2017), also pub- lished by Routledge.
