Riddles of Ayodhya Ram Temple: Consecration of Bhagwan Ram’s idol, but which one?

Shamsul Islam -
Apart from an assertion of a false narrative – Goswami Tuslidas who authored Ramacharitmanas 37 years after the so-called destruction of the temple by Babar makes no mention of the ‘demolition’—the event on January 22 at Ayodhya involves a problematic consecration ceremony, and is in fact a crass political gimmick meant to bolster one person alone, Prime Minister, Narendra Modi
Hate Speech

Increase in desperation among workers, violence against women, say official data

Vikas Parasram Meshram -
In the past few years, the central government has made big claims of development for farmers and laborers, but the latest data from the National Crime Records Bureau shows that the reality of these claims is different. According to the latest NCRB data, suicides of farmers and laborers have increased in the country.

Justice once more for Bilkis Bano, but what now lies ahead?

CJP Legal Research Team -
Bilkis Bano has fought a hard, challenging battle. As one of the 1,958 women Muslim survivors of the targeted violence in Gujarat in 2002, she can now breathe some sighs of relief, if the convicts are “found” by the Gujarat police and report to prison by January 22 (the deadline set by the Supreme Court). There is also a possibility that these convicts now approach the Maharashtra government for remission under section 432 of the CrPC

The Double Stage: Caste’s Schizophrenic Modernity between Spectacle and Shadow

0
Caste from the pre-modern, colonial to the post-Republican; this analysis draws from, among others, works by Nicholas Dirks (2001), Anand Teltumbde (2014) and Gopal Guru (2016) to map this transition showing that contemporary caste should be best understood as a sort of social schizophrenia driven by imaginative acts whereby power perpetuates itself through a convoluted hermetic legitimising act in India.
