‘We are considered servants, not humans’: Women of Jai Bhim Nagar reveal the violence of domestic work

As the first rays of dawn hit the broad, grey-bricked footpaths of Powai’s Hiranandani locality, Darshana begins her day. Inside the blue hues of her current “home”— the tarpaulin-covered dwelling within which she, her family, and hundreds of others rendered homeless by the BMC-led demolition of their houses, have been living for the past five months—she starts her day with work. She washes dishes, cleans the cement side-walk on which rest the mattresses her family and she sleep on, and prepares meals on wood-fired chulas using the limited utensils she was able to salvage before the kitchen in her home was destroyed by bulldozers. By the time the sun shines bright, she has readied her two children, fed them, and sent them to school.

India at the Crossroads: The delimitation exercise and its implications for democracy

With no census having been conducted since 2021 for no explicable reason, the follow-up constitutionally mandated exercise of delimitation will be without foundation; besides, since with each delimitation exercise, the balance of power shifts, a rigid population-based approach, without reforms in fiscal and political decentralisation, risks further centralising authority in the Union government—potentially undermining the very spirit of federalism.
