  • Honorable Shri Venkaiah Naidu, Vice-President, Republic of India, Chairperson, Rajya Sabha December 19, 2018
    Honorable Shri Venkaiah Naidu, Vice-President, Republic of India, Chairperson, Rajya Sabha December 19, 2018 Sub: Oppose Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Bill, 2018 and Trafficking of Persons (Prevention, Protection and Rehabilitation) Bill, 2018 STOP CRIMINALISING BODIES AND LIVES We, the undersigned transpersons, sex workers, activists, academics, and allies in Karnataka, work on various forms of extreme exploitation and with the transgender community and sex workers (including but not limited to transgender sex workers). We express grave concerns with the regressive Transgender Persons (Protection of Rights) Bill and the Trafficking of Persons (Prevention, Protection and Rehabilitation) Bill, 2018. Both bills are pending consideration before the Rajya Sabha now. We request the Honorable Speaker to not ​ introduce the Transgender Bill and Trafficking Bill in the Rajya Sabha and to please refer these Bills to a Select Committee of the Rajya Sabha. ​ Recently in August 2018, the Delhi High Court in Harsh Mander and ors. vs. UoI has observed that the approach of criminalising begging was not a solution to addressing the problem. “The State simply cannot fail to do its duty to provide a decent life to its citizens and add insult to injury by arresting, detaining and, if necessary imprisoning persons who beg in search for essentials of bare survival”. Both the Bills (Transgender Bill and ​ Trafficking Bill 2018) are fundamentally motivated by a criminalizing impulse. Issues which have to be seen within the lens of development are sought to be dealt with by criminal law. The state instead of taking on welfarist / developmentalist functions chooses to focus on incarcerating the poor.

  • PARLEY Relevant For: Indian Polity | Topic: Elections, Election Commission and the Electoral Reforms in India Incl
    Source : www.thehindu.com Date : 2019-06-28 PARLEY Relevant for: Indian Polity | Topic: Elections, Election Commission and the Electoral Reforms in India Incl. Political Parties Last week, when Prime Minister Narendra Modi convened an all-party meeting to discuss the idea of ‘one nation, one poll’, several parties stayed away, calling the idea “anti-democratic” and “anti-federal”. In a discussion moderated by Anuradha Raman, Tiruchi Siva and Jagdeep S. Chokkar speak of the implications of the proposed move. Edited excerpts: Tiruchi Siva: One of the reasons the ruling party puts forth [to hold simultaneous elections] is the huge expenditure involved in the election process. In a democratic country, it the right of the people to exercise their franchise. It is the discretion of the people to elect or unseat a government. Citing expenses incurred in elections is not such a big issue in a country as vast as ours. Our main contention is that as long as we have Article 356 in the Constitution, which allows any State government to be removed by the Central government, how can you be sure that the Centre will not unseat a State government for its own personal reasons by using Article 356 if simultaneous elections are held? What will happen to the remaining tenure of that elected Assembly? As long as Article 356 is in the Constitution, no State government is assured its full term of five years. Will somebody give us an assurance that Article 356 will be removed from the Constitution? Jagdeep S. Chokkar: Well, are we trying to get the cheapest possible democracy or are we trying to get the most effective and representative democracy? I think it is wrong to put a monetary value on democracy and elections.

The early history of Tamil Nadu was dominated by the Cheras, Cholas, Pandyas (the 'moondru venthar' -Three Kings) and the Pallavas. However, evidences show that there were many tribal kingdoms which were ruled by chieftains called Vel, or Velir and later by the Nayakas. These ambitious rulers of this region were fighting constantly with one another over supremacy until the coming of the Europeans. Among the Europeans the British established a trading post in a small fishing village called Madras Pattinam on the eastern coast of India. In 1640 The East India Company established its factory in Madras which emerged as the most important trading port .

  • Tourism and Culture Department Tourism Policy Note
    TOURISM AND CULTURE DEPARTMENT TOURISM POLICY NOTE - 2009-2010 Demand No. 29 Tourism plays a pivotal role in socio-economic development. It fosters international understanding as a part of “Global Village Concept”. Tourists want a holistic experience. Visit to historical monuments, museums and exposure to culture makes this possible. Activities like entertainment, sports, dance, music, festivals, adventure, cuisine, education, health and business enhance their experience. With the advancement of transport, communication and improvement in general economic well-being, the demand for tourism has increased concomitantly. 1 Tourism – Definition 1.1 Tourism is travel for recreational or leisure purposes. The World Tourism Organisation defines tourists as people who "travel to and stay in places outside their usual environment for not more than one consecutive year for leisure, business and other purposes not related to the exercise of an activity remunerated from within the place visited". Tourism has become a popular global leisure activity.* 1.2 Tourism is vital for many countries and many island nations due to the large intake of money for businesses with their goods and services and the opportunity for employment in the service industries associated with tourism. These service industries include transportation services such as cruise ships and taxis, accommodation such as hotels and entertainment venues, and other hospitality industry services such as resorts.* 1.3 One of the sectors of economy considered to have particular potential is
