Sayani ChakrabortyApril 7, 20230

On Friday, the BJP government in Karnataka made significant changes to the state's reservation policy, altering its contours for the first time since 1994. Two politically influential populations, the Vokkaligas and Lingayats, had their sub-quotas increased by two percentage points each. Muslims were thus eliminated from the OBC category.

Disturbances in North East India Continues As People Suffer From Discrimination

Sayani ChakrabortyApril 6, 20230

This will allow the Armed Forces Special Powers Act (Afspa), a lawless law that allows the armed forces and central police to search and arrest without warrant and shoot on suspicion for "maintaining public order," to be put into effect. One district in Nagaland was no longer classified as a "disturbed area" this year. Eight of Nagaland's sixteen districts (including Dimapur) are now fully subject to Afspa, while a further five are subject to it in some form.
