  • 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

  • From Legalism to Realism in Kashmir: Internationalising the Line of Control
    Heidelberg Papers in South Asian and Comparative Politics From Legalism to Realism in Kashmir: Internationalising the Line of Control by Partha S. Ghosh Working Paper No. 7 September 2002 South Asia Institute Department of Political Science University of Heidelberg From Legalism to Realism in Kashmir Internationalising the Line of Control PARTHA S. GHOSH Indian Council of Social Science Research, New Delhi1 In 2002, Kashmir once again virtually led the two countries, India and Pakistan, to another war. And this time the fear was that it could even escalate into a nuclear war. Had it not been for the enormous pressure built upon both the states by the international community, most notably the United States, the matters could have gone out of hand. But the problem of deep distrust with which both the states seem to be congenitally afflicted still remains. Drawing upon historical sources and current politics, the article explores the recognition of the line of control that separates India controlled parts of Jammu and Kashmir from the areas under Pakistani control as a possible solution to this vexed issue. THE BACKDROP In 1996, following the parliamentary and assembly elections held in the state of Jammu and Kashmir, in June and September, respectively, notwithstanding conflicting reports about their fairness,2 it seemed that that round too had gone in 1 Partha S. Ghosh is currently a Director at the Indian Council of Social Science Research, New Delhi. 2 Two kinds of views were expressed in the Indian press after the parliamentary election held in June 1996, one, that the election was a farce as the security forces had coerced the people to vote, and two, that there was spontaneous response on the part of the people to participate in the election which was reflected in the turn out of voters, though small.

Thank you very much. I was waiting to see this day in my lifetime. — Sushma Swaraj The historic blunders of special status had cost the country politically and financially. Today, when history is being re-written, it proves that Dr. Syama Prasad Mookerjee’s vision on Kashmir was the correct one and Panditji’s dream solution has proved to be a failure. — Arun Jaitley 2 ONE COUNTRY - ONE CONSTITUTION ONE COUNTRY ONE CONSTITUTION September, 2019 DR. SYAMA PRASAD MOOKERJEE RESEARCH FOUNDATION 9, Ashok Road, New Delhi - 110001 3 ONE COUNTRY - ONE CONSTITUTION FOREWORD A time comes in the history of a nation but rarely, when a momentous decision shapes its destiny. It changes the course of history and revitalizes its journey with a sense of reassurance and self confidence. It gives a sense of hope and trust in a future having a glorious saga of successes and achievements. When a momentous decision is taken, it touches the life of the entire nation with a feeling of rejuvenation and new found dynamism. The revocation of Article 370 & 35A along with reorganization of Jammu-Kashmir is one such momentous decision in the history of India. It was a decision long awaited but considered most difficult and even impossible in the prevailing political scenario. It required a strong political will and a leadership, confident and determined, to take such a historic decision.

  • Role of National Conference Government (J&K)
    www.ijcrt.org © 2018 IJCRT | Volume 6, Issue 1 February 2018 | ISSN: 2320-2882 Role of National Conference Government (J&K) and Centre-State Relation Mohammad Hussain Yatoo Research scholar school of Social Science Devi Ahilya Vishwavidyalaya, Indore (M.P) India Abstract: The dominance of one party system in Jammu and Kashmir started with the dominance of National Conference since it came into power in 1947. The present paper attempts to analyse the outlook of regional party namely JKNC on Centre-State relation. The differences with the Central government with regard to sharing or division of power have been the main plank of their electoral strategy and victory. Immediately after the accession of the state to the Indian Union, on October 26, 1947 its relations with the Centre were influenced mainly by its two pole of power the ruler and the popular leader and their mutual relations. Maharaja Hari Singh had acceded his state to India with respect to foreign affairs, defence and communication only. The state thus engaged to itself an unqualified autonomy in all other matters. From this emanated its special status within the Indian Union and it enjoined this status under Article 370 of Indian Constitution. Keywords: National Conference, Centre-State, Autonomy, Article 370, Jammu and Kashmir. INTRODUCTION The Constitution describes in India ‘a Union of States’. Dr. Ambedkar while introducing the draft of the Constitution in the Constituent Assembly described it as ‘federal’. He explained “the draft Constitution is federal as much as it establishes what may be called a dual polity”. It consists of “the Union at the Centre and the states at the periphery each endowed with sovereign powers to be exercised in the field assigned to them respectively by the Constitution the Union proposed in the draft Constitutions is not a league of states nor are the state administrative units or agencies of the Union government”.

  • Kashmir: the Long Descent
    KASHMIR: THE LONG DESCENT vanessa chishti n April 2019, India’s Hindu nationalist government banned I civilian traffic on Kashmir’s arterial highways for two days every week. In the months that followed, tens of thousands of security per- sonnel were added to India’s already overbearing military presence in the region — 80,000 in August and September alone.1 On August 5, 2019, the government revoked Article 370 of the Indian Constitution, doing away with the autonomy accorded to the state of Jammu and Kashmir. Simultaneously, the state was divided up into administra- tive divisions to be ruled directly by the central government. This marks the completion of a long-standing program of the Hindu far right, the full “integration” of Kashmir into India. Article 370 of the Indian Constitution had allowed Kashmir a special status, reflecting the very unusual conditions of its incorporation into the country at the time of independence in 1947. Kashmir was granted a great degree of autonomy, and the Indian government had limited powers over 1 Praveen Donthi, “Modi’s War: Dispatches from a seething Kashmir.” Caravan, September 22, 2019. https://caravanmagazine.in/conflict/modi-war-dispatch- es-from-seething-kashmir. 101 CATALYST • VOL 3 • №4 the state when compared to its authority over other states in India’s highly centralized federal structure. Although Article 370 had been reduced to a dead letter by the 1960s, something that Kashmiris resisted fiercely at every step, its formal revocation is a signal that the de facto erosion of Kashmir’s rights has now become de jure.

    [ VOLUME 5 I ISSUE 1 I JAN. – MARCH 2018] E ISSN 2348 –1269, PRINT ISSN 2349-5138 Evolution of Political Parties in the State of Jammu and Kashmir Gh Mohd Sheikh Ph. D. Scholar, Department of Political Science, Indira Gandhi National Open University (IGNOU), New Delhi. Received Jan. 02, 2017 Accepted Feb. 03, 2018 ABSTRACT Like the political history of other states of India, the state of Jammu and Kashmir has a rich political history. It is rich in the sense that prior to its merge with the Union of India the political awakening has started in the state, particularly in the Kashmir region. However, after the Instrument of Accession, the political mobilisation in the state has widened its scope to a large extent, which results the formation of various political parties. The functioning of the political system of the state has been weakened due to the broke down of insurgency. The main objective of the paper is to explore and analyse the political history of the state of Jammu and Kashmir before the dawn of insurgency. The specificity of this study is to discuss the roots and ideology of these political parties of the state of Jammu and Kashmir. For this study, secondary data have been used. The data has been collected from the books, research articles, and government reports. The paper has been divided into three parts; one a brief introduction about the state of Jammu and Kashmir. Second, political parties in the state prior to insurgency. Third, Conclusion and existence of these political parties in the present scenario.

The 'Hawala Scandal' covered leaders from all the tiiree major political parties — the Congress, Bharatiya Janata Party and the Janata Dal. Should all the political parties be condemned on this account? Do they deserve the voters confidence at all? Total abstinence would have made the political system entirely dysfunctional. So a choice had to be made. For the ordinary voter, democracy seemed to have become somev^hat irrelevant at least as it is followed in the present form. A few people at the top elected by popular mandate had totally betrayed the confidence reposed in them. They had been using the power of the State for their personal gains, at best benefiting their own kith and kin in total violation of all norms of political and official conduct. Public money had been siphoned off into private diannels througji 'Scams' that would have led to a hundred 'harakaris' in any other political system.
