RULING REGIME IS MOVING TOWARDS A DE FACTO UNITARY STATE

FEDERALISM IS THE CASUALTY OF HINDUTVA-CORPORATE ALLIANCE
Prabhat Patnaik - 2020-10-01 15:42
Federalism is one of the basic features of the Indian constitution. In the constituent assembly, Professor K T Shah wanted the term “federal”, together with the term “secular”, included in the preamble itself, but Dr Ambedkar rejected it on the grounds that the federal and secular character of the republic was understood and did not need specification. The constitution in its seventh schedule spelt out the jurisdictions of the centre and the states in two lists, and areas of common jurisdiction in a third list. Since then the centre has always tended to encroach on the domain of the states, but this tendency has now acquired a strength where the claim that the country is being pushed towards a de facto unitary State appears to be no exaggeration.

CONSTITUTIONAL MORALITY DEMANDS THAT CENTRE SHOULD APPEAL AGAINST BABRI VERDICT

SPECIAL CBI COURT’S OBSERVATIONS NEGATE SUPREME CORT’S VIEWS
Binoy Viswam - 2020-10-01 15:34
The judgement of the special CBI court on Babri Masjid demolition case poses serious questions over the concept of justice in present day India. Acquitting all the 32 swayam sevaks including L K Advani and Murali Manohar Joshi, the court explained to the nation the real face of judiciary under various compulsions. The 2300-page verdict was an explicit exercise undertaken by the court to justify the illegal act that happened in Ayodhya on December 6th, 1992. The verdict though not unexpected signals a caution of alarm before secular India. The CBI special court behaved in a 'special ' manner to tell the people of India that the demolition was spontaneous.

Amulya Ganguli - 2020-09-30 10:23
While the charge of a conspiracy to bring down the Babri masjid on December 6, 1992, has been discounted by the CBI court which considered the issue, its observation that the demolition was the handiwork of anti-socials cannot be a matter of pride for the Sangh parivar.
