  • The Saffron Wave Meets the Silent Revolution: Why the Poor Vote for Hindu Nationalism in India
    THE SAFFRON WAVE MEETS THE SILENT REVOLUTION: WHY THE POOR VOTE FOR HINDU NATIONALISM IN INDIA A Dissertation Presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Cornell University In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Tariq Thachil August 2009 © 2009 Tariq Thachil THE SAFFRON WAVE MEETS THE SILENT REVOLUTION: WHY THE POOR VOTE FOR HINDU NATIONALISM IN INDIA Tariq Thachil, Ph. D. Cornell University 2009 How do religious parties with historically elite support bases win the mass support required to succeed in democratic politics? This dissertation examines why the world’s largest such party, the upper-caste, Hindu nationalist Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) has experienced variable success in wooing poor Hindu populations across India. Briefly, my research demonstrates that neither conventional clientelist techniques used by elite parties, nor strategies of ideological polarization favored by religious parties, explain the BJP’s pattern of success with poor Hindus. Instead the party has relied on the efforts of its ‘social service’ organizational affiliates in the broader Hindu nationalist movement. The dissertation articulates and tests several hypotheses about the efficacy of this organizational approach in forging party-voter linkages at the national, state, district, and individual level, employing a multi-level research design including a range of statistical and qualitative techniques of analysis. In doing so, the dissertation utilizes national and author-conducted local survey data, extensive interviews, and close observation of Hindu nationalist recruitment techniques collected over thirteen months of fieldwork. BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH Tariq Thachil was born in New Delhi, India. He received his bachelor’s degree in Economics from Stanford University in 2003.

  • To Get the File
    The Indian Emergency 231 THE INDIAN EMERGENCY 9 Aesthetics of State Control A confirmed plagiarist speaks of some of the FFC’s significant produc- tions as third-rate copies of third-rate foreign films. A globe-trotting socialite whose sole claim to be a critic is her access to people and places (and who ecstacizes over Manoj Kumar’s Shor) aids the big sharks by her learned associations. A self-confessed amateur, applau- ded for his bold themes, speaks of films as ‘formal exercises’ when they are not in his own blundering idiom. Others disguise their con- cern for financial return (on both ‘public’ and ‘private’ money!) in terms of mass communication. Yet another old hand at bringing humanism to the box office in outrageous costumes advises the gov- ernment to nationalize cinema before it finances films which make an attempt at speaking a radical language. Utopian ideas always subvert their own declared purpose. Even in the unlikely event of nationalization, given the honesty of our bureaucrats and the social- ism of our system, one can visualize what new monsters will emerge. Some of these suggestions and comments may, indeed, be well inten- tioned, but it is becoming increasingly difficult to sift out the cinema’s enemies from its friends. – Kumar Shahani (1974) 1 Most of these stories featured the then Information and Broadcasting Minister, Vidya Charan Shukla.

  • Is the Media Imbalanced?  Dr
    Is the Media Imbalanced? Dr. M.N. Buch In December 2012 a young lady was raped in a moving bus in Delhi and severely injured in the process and ultimately died despite the best medical care possible. The media, especially the electronic media, went berserk. Street protests took place all over India and in Delhi a grave law and order situation developed. In all the media coverage I did not find a single person who supported rape as being legitimate. Let us track forward to 25th May 2013. A convoy of senior Congress leaders of Chhattisgarh who had gone to Sukma in Bastar Division for a legitimate political rally was attacked on the way back by a large group of heavily armed Naxalites. The thirty policemen escorting the convoy fought back, but ran out of ammunition and were overwhelmed. Very senior Congress leader Vidya Charan Shukla was hit by three bullets and was thrown by the Naxalites on the road as dead. His security officer fought to the last bullet, which he used to commit suicide out of shame that he was now not in a position to protect V.C. Shukla. The Naxalites killed a total of twenty-eight people, including policemen, but their main target was the Congress leaders. Nandkumar Patel, the State Congress Chief and his son were led into the forest and shot dead, a former MLA, Mudaliar and a sitting MLA, Laxman Karma were both killed and Mahendra Karma, the former Home Minister of Chhattisgarh, was pulled out, identified and virtually stabbed to death with his face and upper torso being totally mutilated.

    1-LARRDIS (SAW) 2016 Price : 1200.00 © LOK SABHA SECRETARIAT, 2016 Published under Rule 382 of the Rules of Procedure and Conduct of Business in Lok Sabha (Fifteenth Edition) and printed by Jainco Art India, 13/10, W.E.A., Karol Bagh, New Delhi-110 005. CHANDRA SHEKHAR: A PROFILE Chandra Shekhar was one of the eminent and popular political leaders of India. The interest of the poor, the peasants, the landless, the working classes and their development always remained core to his heart. He was influenced by certain socialist leaders and ideas of socialism too. Having developed political interests since student days, he came into active politics under the advice and influence of his socialist mentor Acharya Narendra Deva. He began his Parliamentary career from Rajya Sabha where he remained a member for three terms. Afterwards he got elected to Lok Sabha where he remained a member for eight terms. Having an abiding faith in the rules and procedure of Parliament and respect for the decorum and discipline in the House, he earned the honour of an Outstanding Parliamentarian. His amiable disposition, command over various subjects and practical approach to national and international issues was appreciated from the different quarters in Parliament. With a long political record to his credit, he became the Prime Minister of India in 1990. As Prime Minister and a towering leader of the country, he left his mark as a statesman in various spheres of the country, though he remained in the same office for a short period. Chandra Shekhar articulated his ideas on diverse fields in Parliament through various devices of Parliamentary practice and procedures as well as through his own writings.
