  • Deepening Tragedy

    Deepening Tragedy

    Deepening tragedy SHOWKAT A. MOTTA Print edition : Mehbooba Mufti at the press conference in Srinagar on June 19 where she announced her government’s resignation afte Bharatiya Janata Party pulled out of the ruling coalition. The BJP pulls out of the ruling alliance and brings down the government in Jammu and Kashmir in a move made with the Lok Sabha elections in mind even as the State sinks into greater depths of violence and militancy. Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) president Amit Shah has demonstrated a ruthless streak ever since he arrived in New Delhi. He has broken political alliances in States from outside (Bihar), staked a claim to government without a legislative majority (Goa, Meghalaya), and won in some States by poaching other parties’ leaders (Nagaland). He played the “Hindu card” to achieve a last-minute win in his home State (Gujarat), and has taken on established parties through the Rashtriya Swayamsewak Sangh (RSS) by portraying RSS workers killed by activists of the opposition as “martyrs” (Kerala), and encouraged inghting in two other State parties (West Bengal). Jammu and Kashmir remained relatively distant from Shah’s Machiavellianism until June 19, when he pulled the rug from under the feet of Chief Minister Mehbooba Mufti and brought down the three-and-half- year-old coalition government in the most volatile State of India. Long before the BJP’s sudden announcement of withdrawal from the alliance, however, the daggers were drawn within the forced political marriage between the BJP and the Peoples Democratic Party (PDP). The two parties, which had overzealously campaigned against each other right until the end of the 2014 Assembly elections in Jammu and Kashmir, were bound to cut loose, sooner or later.

    Kohinoor Hospitals Private Limited

    Kohinoor Hospitals Private Limited Instrument Amount Rating Action (Rs. Crore) Term Loans 56.41 [ICRA]B- Reaffirmed Non-fund Based Limits 1.00 [ICRA]B- Reaffirmed ICRA has reaffirmed the long-term rating at [ICRA]B- (pronounced ICRA B minus) outstanding on the Rs. 56.41 crore1 term loan and Rs. 1.00 crore non-fund based limits of Kohinoor Hospitals Private Limited (KHPL / the hospital)2. The reaffirmation of the rating takes into account the weak liquidity position at a group level owing to slow sales of commercial projects as well as the slower than expected ramp up of the group’s recent ventures in healthcare, education and hospitality segments. The hospital’s financial profile continues to remain weak as evidenced by loss making operations and modest cash accruals. However ICRA notes that the business turning profitable at operating level with OPBDITA of Rs. 1.43 crore during FY 2016 owing to cost rationalisation measures undertaken. The rating also takes into account the limited track record of the promoter group in the healthcare business, the modest scale of operations of the hospital, and its exposure to concentration risks inherent in single asset companies. The rating however positively takes into account the presence of experienced consultants in the hospital’s panel of doctors, which is likely to have a positive impact on the occupancy levels of the hospital, and its foray into specialized services that is expected to support profitability and well as improve brand strength, have been taken into consideration as well. The ratings also favorably consider the limited competition, given the lack of adequate tertiary care facilities in the vicinity and no major expected supply.

    Remembering Partition: Violence, Nationalism and History in India

    Remembering Partition: Violence, Nationalism and History in India Gyanendra Pandey CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY PRESS Remembering Partition Violence, Nationalism and History in India Through an investigation of the violence that marked the partition of British India in 1947, this book analyses questions of history and mem- ory, the nationalisation of populations and their pasts, and the ways in which violent events are remembered (or forgotten) in order to en- sure the unity of the collective subject – community or nation. Stressing the continuous entanglement of ‘event’ and ‘interpretation’, the author emphasises both the enormity of the violence of 1947 and its shifting meanings and contours. The book provides a sustained critique of the procedures of history-writing and nationalist myth-making on the ques- tion of violence, and examines how local forms of sociality are consti- tuted and reconstituted by the experience and representation of violent events. It concludes with a comment on the different kinds of political community that may still be imagined even in the wake of Partition and events like it. GYANENDRA PANDEY is Professor of Anthropology and History at Johns Hopkins University. He was a founder member of the Subaltern Studies group and is the author of many publications including The Con- struction of Communalism in Colonial North India (1990) and, as editor, Hindus and Others: the Question of Identity in India Today (1993).
