Protest in Delhi: Indian state unleashing ‘undeclared, undocumented’ war on Adivasis

The civil rights network, Forum Against Corporatization and Militarization (FACAM), which held a protest gathering at Delhi University Arts Faculty against the cutting of trees and land grab of Adivasi peasant land in Hasdeo, Chhattisgarh, leading to massive displacement in Kaimur, Bihar, has said that as many as 195 paramilitary camps have been built within 5 years of Operation Samadhan-Prahar in order to quell any unrest in the region.

Your Man in the Hague (in a Good Way)

Craig Murray -
I attended the hearing on Thursday of South Africa’s case against Israel for genocide at the International Court of Justice. I was able to sit in the public gallery and watch all the proceedings. I was, however, handicapped in reporting by the fact that we were not allowed pens or pencils (though we were allowed paper). I asked the Head of Security at the ICJ why pens were not allowed in the public gallery. He told me, with a perfectly straight face, that they could be used as a weapon. So bereft of my deadly ballpoint, this account is less detailed and more impressionistic than I would wish to give you.

The right of voters to recall representatives who defect—as seen in West Bengal, Maharashtra, Goa and Arunachal Pradesh—and the requirement of intra-party democracy could form part of a broader institutional redesign. Such measures would deepen democratic values and, above all, signal a refusal by citizens to accept the corruption of their mandate. These may be among the reforms that India's Parliament and democracy most urgently need

The what’s & why’s of Data Centres and how are they hijacking the India Story

0
While countries such as Singapore and Sweden are curbing the environmental costs of data centres through regulation and innovation, India is actively courting these resource-intensive facilities with little regard for their water and energy demands. From Stockholm's waste-heat recovery systems to zero-water cooling technologies, solutions exist. Yet India continues to trade away land, water and public resources with scant consideration for environmental sustainability or local communities.
