Snehashish RoyJanuary 19, 20220

The largest body of independent journalists in the valley, the Kashmir Press Club (KPC), has been permanently shut down and taken over by the Union government.

UP Assembly Election: With Mayawati Being Absent From Ground, Dalit Votes Seem Scattering Among Parties

Snehashish RoyJanuary 18, 20220

The Dalit community accounts for as many as 21% of the total vote population in Uttar Pradesh. A section of the population that has decided the fate of politics in the state for the last couple of decades. Since its inception under the leadership of Kanshi Ram, Dalits have been supportive of the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP) ever since the 1990s. The party went into an overhaul after Mayawati took charge as the first Dalit woman in India to become a chief minister of a state.
