Indian Politics of Defection: An Uninteresting Variant Of Dissidence

Sayani ChakrabortyAugust 2, 20220

Defections from various political parties and the resulting deviation from norms such as "loyalty is not sellable," "pluralism is to be considered worthy of respect," and "politics that endorses improvement in the spheres of non-coercion or increasing but reasonable degrees of freedom" have recently led to the melancholy expression, "we were wrong in supporting, promoting, and protecting these defectors." Congress MPs in Madhya Pradesh (MP) and Karnataka as well as the Shiv Sena in Goa and, more lately, Maharashtra are heard using these kinds of rhetoric. Is the act of defection becoming the new standard for doing politics in India? This raises the most basic problems. What is the reason for the violations of the above-mentioned norms? And who is responsible for this? The act of def...

Gunjan ChaudharyAugust 1, 20220

1988 batch IPS officer Sanjay Arora of Tamil Nadu cadre, who was the DG of ITBP, has taken over as the Delhi Police Commissioner on Monday.

West Bengal SSC Scam: Ramifications For Indian Administration From Partha Chatterjee Case

Sayani ChakrabortyAugust 1, 20220

Mamata Banerjee's decision to remove Partha Chatterjee from her cabinet and party leadership positions was wise, but in political terms, she had little option. Hoarding illegal funds in flats is an easy task for law enforcement, according to the former Trinamool minister and his assistant, who have both been expelled from the party. Public perception is swayed even in a society where political brazenness about corruption is the norm. As a shrewd politician who knew that Chatterjee had become a source of embarrassment and liability for the BJP, Banerjee was always ready to take on the Centre, its agencies, and the BJP. The BJP, desperate to reclaim its footing in Bengal after TMC thrashed it in the polls, would see this as a golden chance. Is it possible that the CM was not aware of ...

It was a casualty whose secret stays unsolved even today. Lal Bahadur Shastri was the government's PM for just 19 months.
