From Headlines and News to Truth
Misleading and incongruent news on digital platforms is pivotal in spreading misinformation and disinformation, leading to widespread skepticism and misconception among audiences or content consumers. Existing studies employ similarity-based, summarization-based, and dual summarization methods to detect incongruent news. However, the incongruent news detection methods in existing studies exhibit the following key limitations. 1) Bag-of-words-base…
Legislating for (In)justice
The ongoing tussle between the Adivasi activists and government in Jharkhand over the draft PESA rules looks to be mired in distrust and misunderstanding. Adivasi activists, in deviation to the provisions of PESA, are demanding the extinguishing of panchayat raj institutions. On the other hand, the state government reduces the gram sabhas to secondary position on crucial areas of governance like land acquisition and so on. The abua sarkar of Hema…
(Wl-2077)-Jharkhand Assembly Elections 2024
The fresh mandate comes with lots of hope and aspirations of Jharkhandi people and the new government will have to grapple with several paradoxes to fulfill even some of these. As Jharkhand has already conducted the Panchayati Raj elections in 2011, 2016 and 2022 the different state governments have failed to frame the PESA rules. Without such rules the PRIs simply becomes an extension of the political interests governing the above two tiers. In …
Gated Recursive and Sequential Deep Hierarchical Encoding for Detecting Incongruent News Articles
With the increase in misinformation across digital platforms, incongruent news detection is becoming an important research problem. Earlier, researchers have exploited various feature engineering approaches and deep learning models with embedding to capture incongruity between news headlines and their respective bodies. Studies have broadly considered different combinations of bag-of-words-based features, sequential encoding, hierarchical encodin…
A Headline-Centric Graph-Based Dual Context Matching Approach for Incongruent News Detection
The prevalence of incongruent news has demonstrated its significant role in propagating fake news, which catalyzes the dissemination of both misinformation and disinformation. Consequently, detecting incongruent news articles is an important research problem to counter early spreading of misinformation. In the literature, researchers have explored various bag-of-word-based features, news body-centric and news headline-centric encoding methods for…
Public Debt and Economic Growth in India
The study gives new evidence on the effects of public debt on economic growth in India with key macroeconomic indicators from 1980 to 2019. In the past decade, and after the COVID-19 pandemic, there is a substantial rise in public debt, which reached 90% of the GDP in April 2021. Therefore, it is imperative to study the impact of different public debt sources on the Indian economy to help policymakers frame informed debt management policies. The …
Adivasis and the State Politics in Jharkhand
This article attempts to analyse the political behaviour of the adivasi groups in Jharkhand as rooted in the interplay of their interactions with different religions, exposure to non-agricultural economic activities and diverse nature of association with the state. The questions considered for inquiry are: Is the political terrain in Jharkhand moving towards ‘detribalization’ of governance? And, what are the factors influencing the voting behavio…
