<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">The research explores narratives of Indian democracy as they unfold in the experience of ‘new work’ in urban India. From the vantage point of everyday experiences, interactions and social relations at work, the research examines how young, lower middle class men and women working as salespersons and store managers in new format organized retail outlets, extrapolate from their everyday work life to construct understandings of formal democratic processes. ‘Dirty politics’, referring to spiteful factionalism, in-fighting and ‘back bitching’, is seen as indispensible to the nature of everyday interpersonal relations at work. Instead of dismissing it as trivial, the research seriously considers this brand of politics as generative of larger narratives of Politics (with a capital ‘P’). The manner in which these narratives are constructed, and what then these constructed narratives are, are ethnographically explored based on 11 months of fieldwork in New Delhi.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">‘Dirty politics’, and the ‘camps’ and ‘political fault lines’ that characterize it, are specifically shaped by the particular context of ‘new work’ with its job insecurity, high pressures for sales, competition, infrequent salary increments and narrow openings for career advance. However, its experience is not limited to just the work site, but directly shapes understandings of contemporary times more broadly. The individuals at work spend long hours deliberating on their experience of ‘dirty store politics’ to theorize the ‘dirty’ workings of power and larger processes of party politics. In their articulations, the research finds their strongly negative review of politics, and Politics, as mere ‘game playing’ for individual gain and as always ‘dirty’, and their deep distaste and disapproval of participation in it. In neoliberal India today, where urban middle class youth is seen as depoliticized, and as disenchanted and disinterested in democratic participation, the research offers a unique vantage point from where to study their narratives of democracy and the nature of their (dis-)engagement with Politics.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">When we analyze the procedure of urban improvement in India we see that post independence, ‘India inherited uneven regional structures of city and town formations, relationship with its hinterland and rural areas, industrial and manufacturing growth, infrastructural access, migration patterns, class, caste and spatial inequalities, governance configurations together with notions of modernities and urbanism.’ This is particularly marked in certain sensitive zones like North-East India, which also suffers from a history of socio-political-economic ostracisation from the Indian mainland. Such ostracism is manifested in the unrest and violence in the North-East ever since India’s independence. These include insurgencies in the states of Nagaland, Mizoram, Manipur, Tripura, Assam and the growth of militant groups in Meghalaya. In addition, there are conflicts and confrontations over land use and control as well as over issues of language, identity, demographic change and minority/majority relations. The problems are further compounded by mis-governance, corruption, economic backwardness and geographical isolation from the rest of India. The historical dimensions of the relationship of the North East region to the Indian state, the uneven development, the incidence of violence and conflict and the specific legal framework in this area form a complex terrain in which the study of urbanization must be carried out. This paper delves into this terrain with specific reference to the ‘tribal metropolis’ – Shillong, which is undergoing tremendous change in its urban landscape. The paper analyses the contestations in urban expansion and development and comments on the nature of people’s participation in urban development and the processes of creating sustainable futures for the citizens of Shillong. As Davidoff (1965) has articulated, ‘if the planning process is to encourage democratic urban government then it must operate so as to include rather than exclude citizens from participation in the process.’</span></div>

It is smallest union territory that include eleven inhabited islands. Historians differ on the first settlement of people in Lakshadweep and is associated number of legends and folk stories. Language of Lakshadweep called as “jeseri” constitutes of Arabic, Malayalam, Urdu, Hindi, Tamil, Kannada, Telgu etc. Evidences are there to show Buddhist and Hindu settlement in the islands. The Kolathiri, Arakkal and Chirakkal dynasty of Malabar region ruled the islands and this time was recorded to be the dark period in the known history of Lakshadweep. Later the Portuguese and British annexed Lakshadweep. Exploitation and brutality was with all the colonizers but the British was first to introduce schools and other administrative and territorial features in Lakshadweep.</span></div>

Without any ‘tribal’ background Lakshadweep is categorized as ‘scheduled tribe’. The Minicoy Island, which belongs to the Maldivian belt and share its culture, language and tradition with Maldives, is also part of Lakshadweep. This has created a serious rupture in the very modernization process of the Minicoy Island. For Indian state, Lakshadweep is a strategic military base and has deployed the Indian reserved battalion, Indian coast guard, Indian navy and other forces. These forces have their bases in all islands and occupy a vast amount of land in this most densely populated place in India. State. Understanding the lacunae in research in this area, the paper would analyze the literature and ethnographic features that concretize the aforesaid arguments. Hence the very becoming of ‘democratic’ Lakshadweep and the ‘nation’ as an emotion that created historically is examined through the paper.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">This paper aims to engage in a postcolonial biopolitical inquiry of a particular phase in the history of Indian democracy, namely that of the internal ‘emergency’ ranging between 1975 and 1977 and the family planning techniques adopted during this period. The dominant representation of the practice of compulsory sterilisation inflicted during the emergency has primarily been in terms of depicting it, on one hand, as an ‘anti-democratic’ instrument solely belonging to the realm of the ‘repressive state apparatus’. It was considered to be either the result of ‘Caesarism’ with a socialist ‘rhetoric’ (Partha Chatterjee) or a ‘eugenicist’ practice (Asha Nadkarni) or a regressive ‘forcible deal’ remotely related to the supposedly progressive/democratic spirit of diminishing the national birth rate (Emma Tarlo). On the other hand, the period has been described as a part of the ‘productive state apparatus’ </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; font-style: italic; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">solely,</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> for its established role in the introduction of Women’s Studies as an academic discipline in India (Mary E. John). Contrary to this existing literature which retains the binary of repression and production as mutually exclusive categories, through a critical discourse analysis of the campaign materials vis-a-vis population control (including films, documentaries, paintings, literary works), I aim to argue how this period punctuated by different kinds of sterilisation techniques, should be read as an era of what Michel Foucault had denoted as biopolitics where repression or prohibition became a “species of production” (Gayatri Chakravorty Spivak 2002). However, as opposed to the Eurocentric deployment of biopolitics comprising of a </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; font-style: italic; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">complete economisation</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> of the political subject and a purported </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; font-style: italic; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">displacement</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> of the model of the family with that of population, my effort will be to illustrate how in India the biopolitics of population control was conceived such that there was a </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; font-style: italic; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">political necessity</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> to ensure that the full translation of women into liberal autonomous subjects of Euro-teleological modernity and linear temporality is left incomplete. Drawing my case from the political pychologist Ashis Nandy’s (1980) delineation of Indira Gandhi as a “democratic leader”, I wish to show how the techniques of family planning (including disincentive-based compulsory sterilisation) adopted by the state aimed at </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; font-style: italic; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">resisting</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> the rationalist drives towards target-based population control. Finally, I wish to demonstrate how one of the primary reasons as to why this biopolitics of population control was unsuccessful in India was because the compulsory sterilisation programmes resulted in a growing sense of emasculation amongst men owing to increasing numbers of state-sponsored vasectomy, thereby causing disruption and a resultant non-optimisation of the heteronormative familial structure.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">State sanctioned brutal violence on its people has been a normal state of affair for a long time from the beginning of developmental state in India. The violence which was used for the state led development projects made its citizens particularly, vulnerable population like Tribals, Dalits and other backward classes as second class or no citizens (Nandy 1989). Among the state led violences in India, violence against the people who are resisting the nuclear power projects has been huge in the recent pasts. Since nuclear and establishments is directly controlled by the state, questioning anything related to nuclear energy become anti-national and anti state, hence its easier to legitimize the violence against them. This paper is looking at the use of state violence in the two social movements against the establishment of nuclear power projects in the state of Tamil Nadu and Maharashtra. The use of violence by police, paramilitary and other forces as well as implicating charges of sedition and waging war against the state, even on the elders, women and children at these two locations became normal and democratic in India. Using innovative ethnographic sources, the paper argues that, state violence used on the protestores against the nuclear power plants in India has been one of the unprecedented in the last one decade. The violence that was used at Kudankulam against the protestores of Kudankulam Nuclear Power Project in Tamil Nadu and Jaitapur Nuclear Power Project in Maharashtra by the Indian state shows not only the violence against its own people but how science and nuclear energy can also be a means of justification for the state to make people anti-state, waging war against the state and thereby destroy the rights that was given by the Indian constitution including the fundamental rights of the citizen.

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">The Indian state which Nehru characterised as a “nation on the move,” is constantly in the process of being constructed. This takes the shape of the interpretation of its constitutional document today, and the inter-textual conversations with the documents that preceded it -- right from the first articulation of the demand for Poorna Swaraj in Congress in 1921, to the widely critiqued Government of India Act, 1935, and the Objectives Resolution presented in 1946 that outlined the fundamental commitments of the newly independent Indian Republic. It is this tension between a break from the past, and the continuity of colonial frameworks, that the Constituent Assembly had to grapple with. Additionally, the politico-historical factors created a situation of ensuing Partition violence, against which the Drafting Committee had to function.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">More specifically, however, in today’s troubled times, words like “secular” and “fraternity” are being used to justify a variety of steps taken by the state – some to disentitle and disenfranchise. These phrases find mention primarily in the Preamble, and they are the site for the common contestation of different groups to lay claim to this Constitution, drafted in the name of “We the people.” Thus, I ask what is the role that the Preamble has played in constitutional adjudication by the Indian Supreme Court, over the past 67 years ? I seek to first situate the Preamble in the context of these historical events. Second, I aim to categorise and critically assess the different approaches taken by the Court in this period, through a review of relevant case law. These are namely the interpretive and expressive approaches to the interpretation of the preamble. The Court has predominantly taken either of these approaches -- the interpretive approach being that which sources certain rights and limitations in the Preamble, and the expressive approach, which sticks squarely to the express enumerated rights guarantees and limitations in the text of the Constitution, and restricts the use of the Preamble to aid in the interpretation of substantive provisions. Whilst this debate has been carried out across disjunct cases, there has been no study of the normative value of utilising the Preamble in one way or the other, nor has there been an inquiry into the transformative potential of its interpretive commitments, beyond mere platitudes.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">Drawing on the frame analytical perspective in the social movement literature, my paper seeks to systematically analyze the native political discourse on the Kashmiri movement for self-determination. It particularly focuses on the Kashmiri youth accounts because the last three political uprisings (2008, 2010, 2016) in the Indian-controlled Kashmir have been youth-lead. Taking the Kashmiri youth as an analytical category to study the Kashmir movement has the following reasons also: first, it allows to overcome what Benford (1997) calls </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; font-style: italic; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">the reification problem</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;"> in the social movement studies: </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; font-style: italic; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">tendency to anthropomorphize</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">, </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; font-style: italic; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">neglect of human agency</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">, </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; font-style: italic; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">neglect of emotions</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">. Second, it will also help in overcoming another problem identified by Benford: </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; font-style: italic; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">elite bias</span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">. Many Kashmir conflict studies seem to suffer from these problematics. As Benford observes, “we tend to study movements either by interviewing people identified as key activists, via media accounts (most frequently newspaper stories), or by analysing movement-generated or related documents.” Such approach brings in the “top-down bias” in the study, as we focus on movement elites and ignore the ordinary movement workers on the ground and the movement sympathisers and others.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">So far, the Kashmir research has been dominated by the two perspectives: the inter-state perspective, which looks at political, ideological rivalry between India and Pakistan and the post-colonial institution-building perspective, which tries to explain why the armed movement emerged in the late 1980’s. The dominant theme within the later perspective postulates that the Indian state persistently interfered in the internal politics of the Indian-controlled Kashmir, undermined and subverted its institutions and consequently Kashmiris revolted against the state. These dominant approaches are problematic for at least two reasons: one, the inter-state perspective privileges the state but marginalizes the native voices and their experiences of the conflict. The post-colonial institution building perspective, on the other hand, resorts to what John Cockell (2000) calls as the “precast statist parameters of inquiry” in which extra-systemic political formulations of Kashmiris are not seen as legitimate institutions on their own terms, and articulation of Kashmiri nationalism is seen as a reaction to the closure of institutional avenues by the Indian state but not as an expression of autonomous political agency of Kashmiris.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Therefore, by foregrounding the native youth accounts, this paper aims to contribute in overcoming the inadequacies in the existing literature on Kashmir. However, it does not claim to be a representative sample of the Kashmiri youth population, rather it seeks to present the perspectives of a selected cohort by analyzing their published accounts.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Since October 2013, ‘None of the Above’, popularly known as NOTA, is an option for Indians who choose not to vote for any of the candidates contesting in an election. Voters can press the NOTA button and signal their discontent without boycotting the polls. While NOTA may allow voters to register protest formally, how the option is used is not well understood. This led me to ask: What are the patterns in the use of NOTA across India?</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">As there was little guidance for decoding NOTA in political science literature, to check for these patterns I used Geographical Information Systems (GIS) to map the distribution of NOTA votes for all Assembly and Parliamentary elections that have used the option so far. </span><span style="background-color: white; font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">I will present these maps, along with the results of statistical analysis of electoral data, to show that NOTA voting in India has varied by urbanisation, region, and reservation status of constituencies. </span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; vertical-align: baseline; white-space: pre-wrap;">I will draw upon official documents on electoral reforms and rich secondary literature on voting behaviour in India to explain what may be driving these patterns. This will help explore hypotheses about protest via ballot.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Other non-votes such as abstention, blank, and spoiled votes have been interpreted as signalling both protest and apathy across democracies. In countries where voting is compulsory, such non-votes may easily throw up a profile of disinterested voters, who would not have cast their ballot if they were not obliged to vote. I distinguish between these and India’s NOTA, to argue that NOTA is a more meaningful form of non-vote in countries where it is not mandatory to vote as it sends a clear signal of protest.</span></div>
<div dir="ltr" style="line-height: 1.38; margin-bottom: 0pt; margin-top: 0pt; text-align: justify;">
<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Interestingly, NOTA was launched when the young urban Indians were not only getting more vocal about issues but were also willing to come out and demonstrate their concerns. The Anna movement and the protests against the Delhi gang-rape case are emblematic of this new urban participation. My story of democratic discontent and its translation into votes, told via NOTA, would be interesting to anybody with a stake in questions such as: what ails representative democracy today and what can be done about it?</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">In what ways, and to what extent, do mainstream political parties facilitate the political representation of minority communities? Especially, when “institutional mechanism” for preferential treatment for minorities does not exist, or, when electoral competition itself gives incentives for their persecution, to what extent can parties be inclusive for minority communities? This research will examine the selection of Muslim candidates by the Indian National Congress (Congress) and by the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) in Uttar Pradesh and Gujarat, focusing on state and municipal level elections. What impact does either secularism or Hindu nationalism – which are homogenising pressures – have on these parties’ selection of religious minorities? Many authors share the view that the process through which the Congress lost its inclusiveness was a key factor in the decline of the party, and that it allowed the de-legitimisation of hegemonic secular doctrine into the Indian political discourse. While there is a vast literature on this scenario, which has led to the evident persecution of Muslims in the north and western India, the literature has not adequately demonstrated the dynamics of Muslim nomination under the influence of these homogenising pressures. This research will conduct a micro-level analysis of the candidate selections by these two parties, through ethnographic fieldwork, with a view to examining the factors affecting the parties’ decisions, including the parties’ ideologies, electoral incentives, the internal factionalism, and the context of the latest developments in formal and informal politics. This study will shed light on the negotiations between Muslim candidates and party leaders, contextualising their interactions in the process of Muslims’ endeavours to increase not only demographic representations but also symbolic representations in electoral democracy. The narratives obtained through interviews with Muslim candidates will also demonstrate their struggle with their own multi-layered identities related to gender, caste, class and religion, as direct participants in party politics. In conclusion, this study tries to expose the reality of political inclusion and representation of religious minorities who are at risk of institutional persecution under the majoritarian democracy as it exists in India.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">At the final stages of the Constituent Assembly deliberation, forms of descriptive representation were rejected on the assumption and promise that the members of majority community could equally represent minority communities whose interests may defer, depending on socio-economic factors and their unique religio-cultural features. After independence, the Muslim discourse on political representation has been dominated by the concerns of underrepresentation assuming it as the most serious cause of disadvantaged condition of the community. Studies, in this context, usually focus on analysis of causes of underrepresentation and suggest various forms of electoral reforms; ranging from proportional representation, reserved seats in legislative bodies, deliberate nomination of Muslim candidates by political parties, and de-reserving SC constituencies. However, not much emphasis has been given to comprehend the ‘representative-ness’ of Muslim/non-Muslim members of legislative bodies as far as substantive-ness of representation is concerned. This study attempts to fill this gap by analyzing Parliamentary questions asked on Muslim issues by Muslim and non-Muslim MPs.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">The study traces the process of legitimation of Indian Muslim politics and its mechanism of narrative building in the post-colonial secular nation state. It is done by tracing the political discourses of Indian Union Muslim League and its discursive articulations. Indian Union Muslim League (IUML) was formed after the India-Pakistan partition, as an Indian version of the All India Muslim League (AIML), a political party that is very instrumental in the modern history of South Asia. Being a party openly based on religion in a secular state where the left and liberal political discourses have delegitimised such a party, especially in the context of the alleged role of its parental party AIML in the partition, Muslim League provokes a researcher to engage with it. Presently IUML is a Powerful stakeholder in the politics of Kerala; a South Indian state and it wins its pockets regularly irrespective of the coalition of parties it includes wins or fails. The objective of the study is to trace the process of legitimation and the discursive articulation of IUML in Kerala by engaging in the antagonistic relationship with contesting discourses, which produce its illegitimacy in different periods. The legitimation of the party throughout the history is encircled in two binaries; nationalism and anti-nationalism and secularism and communalism. The term Pakistani was instantly invoked against the Muslim League in the post-colonial India, especially during the Hyderabad action of 1948, India-Pakistan War of 1965 and 1971, and the formation of Malappuram District in 1969. The public consciousness against the political consolidation based on the religion derived from the experience or the memory of partition and the dominance of the idea of secularism continuously countered its existence. The paper traces how the party negotiated with the above-described questions to be powerful and a successful Muslim democratic experiment comparing to the other parts of India.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">This paper asks whether and under what conditions participatory local government can nurture indigenous peoples’ democratic practice. It is based on a field study in two Ho communities in the Indian state Jharkhand, and compares a well-functioning with a less well-functioning village assembly focusing on meetings, wood access regulation, and development project implementation. It concludes that, despite participatory local government hardly being able to challenge existing patterns of exclusion and co-option or do much for indigenous people vis-à-vis the State, under</span></div>

While most new parties are nothing but a flash in the pan, disappearing in the election that follows their breakthrough, a small number become a durable feature of the party system in which they compete. Per research on party success, this difference in outcome can be explained by a variety of structural and institutional. To understand why parties persist in similar contexts, but not in others, the agency of the new party is deemed. Especially party organization is necessary condition for long-term party success as well as for the nature of party system. However, existing research does not highlight in detail how parties organize. To understand this process, an in-depth analysis of the internal life and structures of parties that has achieved breakthrough is required.</span></span></div>

In this design, I compare two phases in the internal life of the AAP: the first phase begins with the AAPs launch on 26 November 2012 and concludes with the resignation of its minority government on 14 February 2013; the second phase begins on 8 June 2014 with an internal National Executive meeting that heralds a new phase of party building and concludes with the formation of its majority government on 10 February 2015. The design controls for a range of factors that have demonstrated to influence party persistence and that are known to be time-invariant, such as the electoral system, the existence of political resentment, the existence of subcultures, and the structure of party competition. The general features of the APP, such as its ideology, leadership, and origins, also remain stable over the period investigated. Moreover, the focus on a single case is a valuable method for studying causal mechanisms and enhances the internal validity of the findings.</span></span></div>

I find that AAP failed in party building in the first phase, while it succeeded in the second phase. I show that resource expansion (change in both the quantity and the nature of resources) is the key reason for this variation. I demonstrate that the AAP’s leadership invested in building a party structure from the start, but they achieved limited success. This limited success was primarily caused by a lack of resources, such as experienced candidates, finance, and full time party members. However, after the 2013 elections, the resource availability increased significantly. The reaction of political and business elites became more favorable towards the AAP; which resulted in a steady supply of resources. The AAP’s leadership could recruit experienced candidates, attract more full-time party members and volunteers and received vastly more finance.</span></span></div>

It is widely debated whether increased number of women would lead to increase in important 'mediators' for urban poor in the city or whether this would amount to nothing but more victimization in a heavily male dominant, patriarchal structure of politics and so on.</span></div>

The impact of the increasing shift to corporate capitalism has been most visible in urban areas. The city has been turning into a space for complexities, competitions, opportunities and negotiations for state government, political parties/organizations as well as those holding interests in local electoral politics. The actual experience of decentralization at the level of urban local government that has come as a part and parcel of such governance reforms has been inconsistent to its spirit and has contrarily revealed shrinking space, powers and role in urban / municipal governance for elected representatives of those cities.</span></span></div>

In the implementation of this policy, political party organisation plays a key and strategic role to place fifty percent women entrants in local politics. I use observations from the latest 2017-18 municipal elections in Maharashtra to illustrate new practices adopted by political parties for positioning their candidature and campaign promises, and how these have challenged democracy within parties as well as within local states. The paper underscores the need to investigate the changing relationship shared by political parties and women politics critically and understand where exactly are women elected representatives located in the local urban electoral politics. I further ask -'how do political parties accommodate gender politics in their current political structure at local level? What are the strategies, responses to gendered politics in changing circumstances? On the contrary, how do female elected representatives and political activists perceive role of political parties in making their space in local politics?'</span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">For most of 2015 I lived in Imphal for fieldwork for my doctoral research. It is a city where the everyday is punctuated with conflict due to indigenous struggles for self-determination, insurgency and counterinsurgency measures by the Indian armed forces. The latter has been associated with various methods of coercion which include public and private acts of violence. Imphal should continue to remain in the mainstream media but it disappears from public eye when the State contain the dissenting citizens. It is within this context, I explore everyday life in India through the works of young photographers who have methodically documented each corner, crevice, rituals and revolutions in a city often paralysed by conflict. In the absence of national media, these images stand alone as informed insider images. From the plethora of images that are personally distributed across social media and exhibitions in small arts festivals, the intent and the rebel consciousness come through. Just like the everyday life in this region, many images carry a sense of urgency; many convey an energy that reflects an ‘impulse for change’ while most mark silences and opacities of dominant political discourses. (Lorenzo & De Gemes 2016; Ram 2015). In this paper, I explore the nuances of vernacular photo-ethnography that addresses indigenous issues and sense of one’s own society, often weaving threads of resistance and hope in the fabric of complexity that lays over everyday Imphal.</span></div>

I use the archive of the magazine to argue that the middle classes—the reading public of the magazine—were not merely influenced or guided by the Nehruvian vision which was, in turn, constituted on insistence on a deferral of pleasure in service of the nation. Instead, they were everyday active consumers defying the state's prescription by carving out their roles outside the nation’s institutional logic.</span></span><span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; white-space: pre-wrap;"> </span></div>

The protagonists of the film resorted to political assassination after their activist actions were not taken seriously, though the film simultaneously carried a disclaimer against the use of violence. In almost all of these narratives, it was taken for granted that the nation-state was a perfectly valid object of criticism and of occasional violence. Pointing out the problems of day-to-day life, especially of the poorer classes, was not an exceptional act.</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; font-size: 9pt; white-space: pre-wrap;">Over the past five years, Hindi movies have turned criticism of the nation-state into an exceptional act. They reflect the hyper-nationalist discourse popular in the public domain, and the nation is now the saviour, a source of pride and in need of protection. A corrupt government official is no longer an acceptable opponent; the opponents are all “terrorists” whose goal is not only to take lives but also tear apart the fabric of the nation. It is no coincidence that this gallery of villains and opponents is populated by members of the minority community or by the disenfranchised, almost always represented as caricatures. Resistance to state oppression is no longer heroic. Even as the Indian government taken on a variety of social struggles, cinematic narratives are becoming more about reinforcement rather than resistance. My paper shall explore these two kinds of cinemas in depth and attempt to articulate the implications of this change for the nation’s self-conceptualisation. </span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 6.0pt;">
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 6.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 13.0pt;">The
year 2017 marks the 70th year of Indian Independence and 67 years of the
Indian Constitution. As India transforms from the largest experiment in
democracy in the world to a power to reckon with, there is a loss of its
constant state/sense of ‘becoming’ a democratic nation. This is simultaneous to
widespread unease and discomfort at the shrinking scope of democratic practice
and expression in the country today. We observe a homogenising discourse
jostling with other narratives of the nation, providing us with a location from
which to examine these interactions and confrontations, and what they signify.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 6.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 13.0pt;">We
seek to situate or perhaps to dislocate this urgency of probing the
present condition in various narratives of the democratic state. As expression
of political being, narratives serve to challenge the assessments of events and
actions, they disrupt temporal notions of stability, continuity, crisis and
change. At the same time, multiple narratives also present themselves as
disparate but enduring totalities and continuities.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 6.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 13.0pt;">With
this edition of the King’s India Institute Graduate Conference, we hope to
engage with narratives at two levels. Firstly and fundamentally, to seek
the unique vantage which narrative/s provide to examine the transformations
that have taken place in the seven decades of the social, economic and
political life of the nation, and in this light to interrogate its present
condition. And secondly, to reflect not just on the significance of
narrative as insurgent to homogenising totalities and the violence within them
but also as a method in knowledge production.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-top: 6.0pt;">
<span style="font-size: 13.0pt;">Do
note that we speak here of the broader spheres of the social, economic and
political as inclusive of the cultural, artistic and literary spheres. We
encourage papers that deal with the artistic and literary either as primary
material or as modes of expression and presentation. We invite papers from
graduate research students exploring the following themes related to the
production and expression of Indian democracy:<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<ul style="text-align: left;">
<li><span style="font-size: 13pt;">Democracy
as a political vs. ethical project: How is the democratic project realised
through representation and participation? What is the inter-play of gender,
caste, religion, class, etc. in the democracy? </span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 13pt;">Constitutional
Identity: relevance, crisis and contradiction (explored through concepts such
as Secularism, Federalism, Rights/Directive Principles, efficacy of
tripartite Legislature/Executive/Judiciary) </span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 13pt;">Temporal
Constructs: How is democracy constructed through deploying the notions of past,
present and future, through invocations of civilizational and historical
imperatives, visions for the future, notions of crisis and progress? </span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 13pt;">Modes
and Materials of constructing democracy: How is democracy shaped in the fields
of culture and society? What are its modes and the forms it takes? The
electoral process and the negotiations of representation, census and
statistics, governmentality and civility, law and public policy, language and
public discourse, media and production of knowledge, cultural artefacts and
identities, scientific discourse and notions of development. </span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 13pt;">Institutions
and Institutionalisation: What is the role of State, civil society and other
institutions in the experience and production of democracy? How do they affect
the State? How do they interact with social and political realities? </span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 13pt;">Boundary-making
and Spatial Control: How are the limits of the democratic nation invoked
through territoriality, morality, disciplining, criminalisation and emerging
spaces of the Internet and digital media? </span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 13pt;">Conflict
and Conflict-resolution: How does the democratic nation resolve conflict? What
is the role of institutions and civil society in conflict resolution? </span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 13pt;">Condition,
possibilities and expressions of democratic practices in everyday life: how are
the ideals of the democratic state practised? What are the ways in which these
ideals inform society and culture? </span></li>
<li><span style="font-size: 13pt;">Dissent
and Resistance</span></li>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Abstract:
How do we distribute the field? This question animates the reflections on an
ethnographer’s task in constituting and construing ‘the field’. This paper
takes it bearings from Sharad Chari’s (2003) use of ‘Genres’ in distributing
and constituting his field in Tiruppur. This paper is based on ethnographic
material collected from 2013 to 2015 in the village of Netajeepally at the
North- Eastern extreme of the Kolkata Municipal Corporation. A village largely
settled by refugees from the 1971 War of Liberation in Bangladesh –
Netajeepally embodies the characteristic regional history of West Bengal. An
extremely mobile population with histories of migration spanning the years
since 1947 Partition of South Asia makes the narratives uncontainable in terms
of the village boundaries. Such mobility disturbs the stable ‘regional’
constitution of the field. Scholars like Appadurai, Ferguson, Gupta and Passaro
have commented on this mobility and its particular dialectic with the
territorial constitution of the field. In this study there are two levels at
which the field is distributed. Firstly, the narratives distribute life
histories across long migrations triggered by violence and continued due to
economic necessity. Secondly, the narratives told at the village market place
change substantially in character, tone, detail and meaning when the same
respondents speak of their ‘journeys’ in their ‘homes’. The paper attempts to
empirically distribute the field through the two genres and spaces in which the
respondents spin their tales while assuming different roles and meanings
through each re-telling.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Abstract:
My research focuses on the movement structures and changes in the choreographic
elements of dances like ‘Garba’ and ‘Raas’. My field work, conducted in autumn
of 2015, made me interact with dancers, organizers of the dance events, and
contemporary choreographers. Since the conception of this dance form is
grounded on the community identity, it is conventionally studied through an
ethnographic perspective. I intend to see dancers’ interaction with society
through physically intensified movements from dance studies perspective. On
fieldwork, my encounter with several organisers and dancers was initiated first
with caste, and second with the knowledge of Garba dance. Since Garba dance
styles also depend on the castes and regions, it was necessary to bring caste
discourse in front. As a researcher, my caste and knowledge of Garba was
discussed as well. My hypothesis about dancing communities’ caste assertions
was gradually changing and becoming more nuanced <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">as
I realised that these identities worked on subtler level. After interviewing
the organisers I found out that caste specific dance events are organised not
only to assert caste identity but also to forge business ties with capitalist
function. My belief of gaining an easy access to the region and people was
challenged when I was restricted to interact with female dancers of certain
castes. In the end, my writing up was informed with the material on old aged
dancers and pregnant women’s movements to labour practices turned into
choreographed dance movements.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="font-size: 12pt;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Abstract:
As our world becomes increasingly mediated through the lens of the digital, new
realms of study have opened up for the academic researcher. From digital
ethnographies to Big Data studies, research methods are adapting and shifting
to cope with the rapidly changing digital landscapes of our lives. However, in
the enthusiasm and excitement of digital studies, the user often remains an
elusive yet crucial element that is often overlooked or left as an anonymous
entity. Many studies overcome this issue by focusing on large-scale data
scrapes or maintaining digital boundaries and researching other aspects of
digital changes to the social world. Negotiating the boundaries of the digital
to find the user and conducting qualitative research poses many unanswered
issues of access and to the ethics of digital research that require more
critical examinations. This paper explores the difficulties of critically
analysing digital events using qualitative methods. From defining the
boundaries of a digital study to confronting our own biases as researchers in
digital expectations, the variety of challenges and re-conceptualisations of
“the field” in a digital world require a rigorous examination of methodological
and academic assumptions. This paper will explore and discuss some of the
challenges involved in studying the digital impact of two movements – The
Anti-Corruption Movement in 2011 and the Delhi Rape Case in 2012 – using
qualitative methods, including semi-structured interviews, to search for and
understand the user and practitioner. It will examine issues of bias and ethics
and discuss new methodological difficulties posed by the mediated world. <o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Abstract:
Politics needs to be analyzed as a ‘visual field’ and so does the discipline of
politics need to engage with the ‘visual’. My research explores practices of
meaning making in the context of Identity politics. It tries to understand the
relationship between identity formation and interventions in symbolism. Hence
the forms of evidence collection have involved – ethnographic observations,
open- ended interviews and visual ethnography through photographs. Embedded in
inter-disciplinarity and a reflexive approach to ethnographic fieldwork
methodology incorporating the visual. <o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-bottom: 0.0001pt;">
<span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Since
my PhD research gives the ‘Visual’ a critical role, by introducing it as an
alternative way of understanding and a route to knowledge about social and
political phenomenon. Here particularly I am referring to how photographs can
be used as an effective tool for accessing the unarticulated and embodied views
of individuals and groups in the research process. This paper will aim to chart
out the journey of engaging my ‘field site’ as a ‘Visual site’ engrained in capturing
the symbolisms and performativity that informs the everyday engagement of my respondents
with politics and to analyze the changing configuration of how democracy is performed
and experienced. It would aim at discussing for instance how does use of photography
as a mode of evidence collection layers and complicates the analysis of ethnographic
moments of social interactions, temporalities and ocular empowerment. This analysis
would also entail discussing the encounter of this ‘visual field’ with my
positionality as a ‘female researcher’ and entering the masculine space of
photography/ videography and the challenges therein.<o:p></o:p></span><br />

most respected public hospital, the All India Institute of Medical Sciences
(AIIMS) in Delhi is widely considered to be India’s most prestigious medical
college, accepting less than one tenth of one percent of 90,000 annual
applicants to its undergraduate program (MBBS). It is also notably understudied
by social scientists, partly informing my choice to write an ethnography of
AIIMS for my PhD. This narrative paper follows efforts to gain access to
AIIMS from two perspectives: firstly, mine as a researcher, and secondly, that
of a student aspiring to study medicine at the institute. In both cases I
employ Bourdieu’s (1986) theory of capital(s) as a means of explicating how
AIIMS reproduces its status as an elite institution, and the consequences these
processes have for those seeking access, whether as an aspiring young doctor,
or a foreign anthropologist.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

particularly in qualitative fieldwork, imagine unconquered lands, whose depths
the researcher slowly uncovers through her dogged pursuits and piercing questions.
How, then, does one return to a field that is already ‘known’, not just through
books and writing, but through first-hand experience? Specifically, in this
case, how, when one has established one’s identity in a place as a development
worker, does one return as a researcher? Between 2013 and 2014, I worked for a
year on a post-conflict rehabilitation project in the Bodoland Territorial Area
Districts, or BTAD, in Assam. I was responsible both for coordinating the
project, as well as conducting a year-long study mapping the aftermath of the
conflict. Soon after I left, I decided to do a PhD that focused on the same
region, but on different aspects, primarily the relationship between state
practice and conflict. I returned for the first time as a researcher for four
weeks in March 2016, to study ongoing election campaigning. This paper will
explore the nuances of attempting to bridge the divide between ‘NGO type’ and

one role for another. How does the change in role affect the way we gain
access? Finally, the paper also looks at the way returning as a student reveals
certain blind spots in the understanding of the field as it was known.<o:p></o:p></span></span><br />

<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Abstract: In a 2015 paper, Dipankar Gupta used
‘rurban’ as a ‘clumsy term’ to describe the rapidly transforming countryside in
India. Harriss-White (2016) has used the term ‘Middle India’ to express the
dynamism of small towns, and their links to rural areas. It is this fluid and
ill-defined, but surely expanding, terrain that was ‘discovered’ and traversed
by this researcher in the course of her fieldwork on agrarian capital in
Punjab. This paper draws on a year’s fieldwork conducted in 2014-15 on the
accumulation strategies of large farmers and the structure of crop markets in Punjab.
The fieldwork was based in a market town and surrounding villages in Ludhiana
district. Since capital-centred political economy projects are relatively
uncommon, there was ambiguity on the nature of the field and the most effective
research methods for the purpose before the fieldwork, even though a detailed
tentative plan had been made. This paper will, therefore, reflect on how the
field itself was ‘found’ and defined, through fieldwork, at the inter-section
of the rural and the urban. It will also provide insights into how the choice
of data collection methods differed across different types of respondents and
settings. The limitations and trade-offs involved in these choices will be
explored. There will also be a discussion of how fieldwork strategies were
informed by gender constraints. Finally, the paper will constitute a methodological
note on being a researcher in and of a transforming agricultural space, and on applying
emerging analytical ideas to fieldwork practice.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Abstract: Health policy analysis is a small, yet
growing, subset of health research in India. Policy analyses often necessitate
‘studying up’ (Nader 1972), by examining institutions, mechanisms and actors at
the top of the decision-making architecture. The use of elite interviewing and
non-participant observation are frequently used methods in such analyses, but
their application in India and other low-resource settings requires further attention.
These methods often blur the boundary between art and science, and furthermore,
have not been sufficiently dissected in the Indian context, where dynamics of
class, race, ethnicity, caste, gender, institutional affiliations, connections,
and other factors, on the part of the researcher and researched, strongly
influence study outcomes. This abstract reflects on experiences during my
dissertation research in India in 2015. Methods for my study, an analysis of
the development of medical specialties in India, consisted of interviewing
elites in powerful positions in public and private health sectors, and
observing high-level meetings. I will discuss the tensions in navigating the
complex and fragmented stakeholder network in my study, and the challenges of
engaging controversial institutions, such as the Medical Council of India. I
will reflect on my positionality as an Indian-origin researcher from an
US-based institution, and how those characteristics facilitated and hindered
access. I will discuss how being a young, female researcher, and a mother,
influenced my relationships with interviewees. I will explore the role of
connections in access and relationship building. Finally, I will consider how my
Tamil ethnicity enhanced trust with Tamilian interviewees.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

<span style="line-height: 107%;"><span style="font-family: Georgia, Times New Roman, serif;">Abstract: What challenges does ethnographic
fieldwork present when the ethnographer is perceived as a ‘native’ by the
informants?How different is the experience compared to those ethnographies who
are perceived to be non-native anthropologists by the informants? In this
paper, I will discuss how during the ethnographic fieldwork and data collection
in a remote village in central India, how my ‘native’ identity led to
contesting gender stereotypes of being single working Indian woman as an
ethnographer. The fieldwork entailed traveling at odd hours and being seen in
odd places and wearing odd clothes as judged by traditional and patriarchal
standards in that region. How there was a thin line between me losing the trust
of my informants due to my unmarried status which was considered a threat by
other married women in the field and how I dealt with speculations regarding my
sexual and unmarried life and constantly being Judged and asked to justify
about my pursuits in the field due to my urban roots. More importantly, how
difficult it was to conduct fieldwork without men in this part of India where women
are rarely seem alone in public and what implications it had for my fieldwork. I
will discuss accounts of how these local men (as motor bikers taking me around
to inaccessible villages) would take advantage of me for not having any kinship
relations in the village and pursue me for temporary companionships which is
forbidden until marriage in such societies of India. I will also show how
initial relations of trust to enter the fieldwork soon turned unprofessional
and personal threats to life from the local mining mafia in the region and what
negotiating strategies were used to make the fieldwork possible.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>

Landscapes – not least the digital – are viewed from new and revealing angles. The village (never truly bounded) is ever more permeated by transnational influences; the expanding city sets new precedents for urban and peri-urban existence; new archives are accessed and old ones reluctantly yield new treasures; work, health, creativity, education, religions and ethnicities are imbricated in a democratic politics whose substance is often as troubling as its procedure is admirable.<o:p></o:p></span></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"> Fieldwork changes everything. Or, at least, it should. The research experience challenges preconceptions and provokes new ideas – about our work and also on occasion about ourselves. And when we reach the next stage, our writing is not merely a transcription of our notions of the field, but becomes a means of challenging the formulaic, be it through the development of new analytical frameworks, or supplementing the empirical substance of existing theory.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="text-align: justify; text-justify: inter-ideograph;">
<span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif;"><span style="font-family: "trebuchet ms" , sans-serif;"> For discussion at the 4<sup>th</sup> annual King’s India Institute Graduate Forum workshop, we invite papers that draw on any interpretation of ‘the field’ in contemporary India, but which include reflection on the ways in which the challenges and rewards of fieldwork and writing-up have influenced the final shape of your research and/or your sense of self as a researcher. Papers might speak to specific challenges such as gaining access and facing restrictions within the field, or they might consider the ways in which conducting research in constrained or perplexing circumstances can both impede and enrich the process. We also invite papers that reflect on how our own identities as researchers – which might be related, but not limited, to gender, sexuality, health and disability, or age – inform our experience by helping, hindering or altering the research we conduct. </span><span style="font-family: "garamond" , serif;"><o:p></o:p></span></span><br />
