In the first week of March 2025, days before farm unions were to begin a week-long sit-in protest in Punjab’s capital city Chandigarh—a bid to escalate pressure and supplement farmer protests already underway at various points along the state’s borders—nearly a dozen farm union leaders were detained or visited at home by policemen. Manjit Singh Rai, state president of the Bharatiya Kisan Union (Doaba), one of the BKU’s many factions, was among them. “I was under virtual house arrest,” Rai said. In the days leading up to 5 March, the state police rounded up more than 300 farmers and farm…

Exactly forty two years ago, on the morning of February 18, 1983, Sirajjudin was returning from the market, after having left to obtain some essential elements.

Ranchi, Jharkhand: The gathering darkness could not hide the immensity of the old peepal tree under which 50-year-old Meena Devi led the chorus of a Sarna prayer. A deeply meditative and primeval hymn of the Sarna faith followed by nearly 5 million people from indigenous communities, most of them in the central Indian state of Jharkhand, the hymn was a prayer offered to the giant tree. In Purio, a hamlet of the Oraon tribal community located about 30 km west of Jharkhand’s capital, male singers’ baritones joined Meena Devi’s razor-sharp wailing tone as white and red Sarna flags, representing purity…

❈ ❈ ❈ Food as a Victim of BJP Politics Sumanta Banerjee Our eating habits and choice of food are increasingly coming under pressure from the ruling party and its vigilantes, who are turning food into yet another issue of political contest. They are turning kitchens and meals into battlegrounds. BJP-ruled state governments close down meat shops during Hindu festivals, and the saffron brigade invade those shops – whether they are run by Hindu or Muslim butchers. Earlier they targeted beef, and lynched Muslim traders who were found to be transporting infertile cows to go-shalas or butcher shops. Then they…

❈ ❈ ❈ Urdu’s Exile Diminishes Indian Pluralism Zoya Hasan Urdu is central to that heritage and to Indian pluralism and culture. What needs to be encouraged is linguistic diversity that nourishes it, and not linguistic discrimination that diminishes it. India’s right-wing seems to think Urdu is a foreign import, forced upon the country by Muslim invaders. This is far from the truth. Urdu is an Indian language with deep historical roots. It is locally born and just as indigenous as other languages. It was born out of “the cultural hybridisation that happened in the Indian subcontinent,” notes Alok Rai.…

[Since August 2024, India-Bangladesh relations have undergone a seismic shift. Former Prime Minister Sheikh Hasina was seen as a reliable and trusted friend of India, but strong opposition to her within Bangladesh, along with her close ties to New Delhi, appear to have worked against both her and India. Now believed to be living in exile in Delhi, Sheikh Hasina has left behind strained India-Bangladesh relations, which have plunged to their lowest point in three decades. The latest development in this saga is the visit of Bangladesh’s Chief Adviser Muhammad Yunus (who leads the interim administration in Dhaka) to Beijing,…
