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. With a two-point rise to 17%, the scheduled caste quota was broken into four more groups. With the EWS quota, the proposed modifications will boost the total reservation to 66%. Legally, it is not yet complete. Chief Minister Bommai of Karnataka has announced that the administration will urge that the Indian government place the state's reservation policy under the Constitution's ninth schedule. These changes occur shortly prior to the upcoming ass...

Disturbances in North East India Continues As People Suffer From Discrimination

Sayani ChakrabortyApril 6, 20230

Assam, Manipur, and Nagaland have seen a significant decrease in the number of "disturbed areas," and a review of the designation in 2023 will be an incremental step toward removing the label and making it irrelevant. 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. Tripura repealed Afspa in 2015, and Meghalaya removed it in 2018 after 27 years. Both of these states recently ...

The Potential Turning Moment of Rahul Gandhi’s Disqualification

Sayani ChakrabortyMarch 30, 20230

In Indian politics, a new era has begun. When the ruling party seizes control of the Republic's institutions, as has happened in India recently, the opposition must resort to more clandestine strategies. To better connect with the people, Rahul Gandhi first immersed himself in Parliament and then set out on a Bharat Jodo Yatra. The governing government felt they had to eliminate him as a threat. It's the beginning of a brand new series. When the institutions of the Republic are taken by the governing party, as is the case in India at the moment, the opposition is left with few options for bringing about change. First, Rahul Gandhi put his money where his mouth is, in parliament, where he denounced attacks on democracy and the nexus between the Modi government and new oligarchs. Howe...

Politics And Heterosexuality: Government Still Lags Behind When It Comes to Gender Issues

Sayani ChakrabortyMarch 21, 20230

Politicians will not challenge the norms of a mostly heterosexual culture just because some people want to live together. Hence, civil unions could be a decent starting point for same-sex couples. The Government of India has expressed its opposition to same-sex marriage to the Supreme Court, stating that such unions are not in keeping with the traditional Indian family and that 'obviously separate' groups should not be regarded the same. The executive and legislative branches' perspectives on this matter are heavily influenced by the conservative and traditionalist nature of most of Indian society. Nonetheless, it is the responsibility of the Supreme Court to protect basic liberties, regardless of public opinion. The Center for Justice and Inclusion (CJI) has made the encouraging ob...
