Bridging the Worlds
India has a long-standing tradition of engaging with diversity through public discourse and intellectual debates. This openness has been upheld by strong arguments that celebrate variation and emphasise mutual respect through dialogue. This paper explores this dimension of early Indian literary tradition by analysing three significant dialogues, particularly with their pūrvapakṣa–uttarapakṣa dimension, from distinct Upaniṣadic texts: the dialogue…
Rights of the Artists in India
Artistic creation and legal protection often clash, as art is seen both as a personal expression and a commercial product. In India, with its rich cultural history and large entertainment industry, creators still face deep-rooted challenges. Many actors, musicians, and visual artists face unfair power imbalances, exploitative contracts, art forgery, and the loss of personal dignity. Studies of laws and crime data show how serious these problems a…
Joint Parliamentary Committees in India
This paper attempts to understand the committees in the Indian parliament. The motive is to evolve patterns and a framework to make sense of parliamentary committees with a special emphasis on the Joint Parliamentary Committees. The institutional arguments for sub-institutions like committees are situated in the larger discourse of political processes. Does the realpolitik in the Indian scenario enable the functioning, effectiveness or efficacy o…
Integrated Child Development Services (ICDS) and their contribution to improving complementary feeding practices among children aged 6–23 months in India
Despite the programme expansion, ICDS have limited influence on improving complementary feeding practices in India. Targeted efforts to improve service delivery to young children by Integrated Child Development Services could potentially support better complementary feeding practices
नैतिकता और राजनितिक अर्थव्यवस्था के विशेष संदर्भ में उतर पश्चिमी प्रान्त का आकाल
इस लेख में उत्तरी पश्चमी प्रान्त में 1868-1870 के आकाल के विशेष संदर्भ में नैतिक, राजनितिक प्रक्रियाओं और ब्रिटिश राज के राजनितिक अर्थव्यवस्था के परस्पर क्रिया और उनसे गुंथी हुई सामजिक आर्थिक सह-संबंधों को रेखांकित करने का प्रयास किया गया है, जिससे 19वीं सदी के अंतिम दौर में उत्तर-पश्चिमी प्रान्त ने आकाल और सूखा जैसी समस्याओं का सामना किया. वस्तुतः यह सदी क्रमिक और बारम्बार आकाल और सूखा का दौर था1. विशेष रूप से 1850-1900 का काल भारतीय इतिहास में …
Quasi-Democratic Imagination
Institutionalising parliamentary opposition ensures political pluralism, and an opposition needs constitutional protections to enable it to demand accountability and seek scrutiny over the executive. How did the Constituent Assembly of India envision the idea of parliamentary opposition? Did it take the issue seriously? Or, overshadowed by the burgeoning dominance of the Congress Party, was it apprehensive about providing constitutional space for…
The Making of India’s Resilient Opposition in the 1970s
This article seeks to focus on the changing nature of India’s parliamentary opposition in the 1970s. The article argues that, unlike the previous decades, the Opposition in India was resilient, even if not organised in the face of the authoritarian tendencies of Indira Gandhi pre- and during the Emergency. The analytical framework helps to understand the reasons for the growing opposition’s resilience. The manifestation of this resilience can be …
