[reasonsforhope]

Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is, by some measures, the most popular leader in the world. Prior to the 2024 election, his Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) held an outright majority in the Lok Sabha (India’s Parliament) — one that was widely projected to grow after the vote count. The party regularly boasted that it would win 400 Lok Sabha seats, easily enough to amend India’s constitution along the party's preferred Hindu nationalist lines.

But when the results were announced on Tuesday, the BJP held just 240 seats. They not only underperformed expectations, they actually lost their parliamentary majority. While Modi will remain prime minister, he will do so at the helm of a coalition government — meaning that he will depend on other parties to stay in office, making it harder to continue his ongoing assault on Indian democracy.

So what happened? Why did Indian voters deal a devastating blow to a prime minister who, by all measures, they mostly seem to like?

India is a massive country — the most populous in the world — and one of the most diverse, making its internal politics exceedingly complicated. A definitive assessment of the election would require granular data on voter breakdown across caste, class, linguistic, religious, age, and gender divides. At present, those numbers don’t exist in sufficient detail. 

But after looking at the information that is available and speaking with several leading experts on Indian politics, there are at least three conclusions that I’m comfortable drawing.

First, voters punished Modi for putting his Hindu nationalist agenda ahead of fixing India’s unequal economy. Second, Indian voters had some real concerns about the decline of liberal democracy under BJP rule. Third, the opposition parties waged a smart campaign that took advantage of Modi’s vulnerabilities on the economy and democracy.

Understanding these factors isn’t just important for Indians. The country’s election has some universal lessons for how to beat a would-be authoritarian — ones that Americans especially might want to heed heading into its election in November.

-via Vox, June 7, 2024. Article continues below.

A new (and unequal) economy

Modi’s biggest and most surprising losses came in India’s two most populous states: Uttar Pradesh in the north and Maharashtra in the west. Both states had previously been BJP strongholds — places where the party’s core tactic of pitting the Hindu majority against the Muslim minority had seemingly cemented Hindu support for Modi and his allies.

One prominent Indian analyst, Yogendra Yadav, saw the cracks in advance. Swimming against the tide of Indian media, he correctly predicted that the BJP would fall short of a governing majority.

Traveling through the country, but especially rural Uttar Pradesh, he prophesied “the return of normal politics”: that Indian voters were no longer held spellbound by Modi’s charismatic nationalist appeals and were instead starting to worry about the way politics was affecting their lives.

Yadav’s conclusions derived in no small part from hearing voters’ concerns about the economy. The issue wasn’t GDP growth — India’s is the fastest-growing economy in the world — but rather the distribution of growth’s fruits. While some of Modi’s top allies struck it rich, many ordinary Indians suffered. Nearly half of all Indians between 20 and 24 are unemployed; Indian farmers have repeatedly protested Modi policies that they felt hurt their livelihoods.

“Everyone was talking about price rise, unemployment, the state of public services, the plight of farmers, [and] the struggles of labor,” Yadav wrote...

“We know for sure that Modi’s strongman image and brassy self-confidence were not as popular with voters as the BJP assumed,” says Sadanand Dhume, a senior fellow at the American Enterprise Institute who studies India. 

The lesson here isn’t that the pocketbook concerns trump identity-based appeals everywhere; recent evidence in wealthier democracies suggests the opposite is true. Rather, it’s that even entrenched reputations of populist leaders are not unshakeable. When they make errors, even some time ago, it’s possible to get voters to remember these mistakes and prioritize them over whatever culture war the populist is peddling at the moment.

Liberalism strikes back

The Indian constitution is a liberal document: It guarantees equality of all citizens and enshrines measures designed to enshrine said equality into law. The signature goal of Modi’s time in power has been to rip this liberal edifice down and replace it with a Hindu nationalist model that pushes non-Hindus to the social margins. In pursuit of this agenda, the BJP has concentrated power in Modi’s hands and undermined key pillars of Indian democracy (like a free press and independent judiciary).

Prior to the election, there was a sense that Indian voters either didn’t much care about the assault on liberal democracy or mostly agreed with it. But the BJP’s surprising underperformance suggests otherwise.

The Hindu, a leading Indian newspaper, published an essential post-election data analysis breaking down what we know about the results. One of the more striking findings is that the opposition parties surged in parliamentary seats reserved for members of “scheduled castes” — the legal term for Dalits, the lowest caste grouping in the Hindu hierarchy.

Caste has long been an essential cleavage in Indian politics, with Dalits typically favoring the left-wing Congress party over the BJP (long seen as an upper-caste party). Under Modi, the BJP had seemingly tamped down on the salience of class by elevating all Hindus — including Dalits — over Muslims. Yet now it’s looking like Dalits were flocking back to Congress and its allies. Why?

According to experts, Dalit voters feared the consequences of a BJP landslide. If Modi’s party achieved its 400-seat target, they’d have more than enough votes to amend India’s constitution. Since the constitution contains several protections designed to promote Dalit equality — including a first-in-the-world affirmative action system — that seemed like a serious threat to the community. It seems, at least based on preliminary data, that they voted accordingly.

The Dalit vote is but one example of the ways in which Modi’s brazen willingness to assail Indian institutions likely alienated voters.

Uttar Pradesh (UP), India’s largest and most electorally important state, was the site of a major BJP anti-Muslim campaign. It unofficially kicked off its campaign in the UP city of Ayodhya earlier this year, during a ceremony celebrating one of Modi’s crowning achievements: the construction of a Hindu temple on the site of a former mosque that had been torn down by Hindu nationalists in 1992. 

Yet not only did the BJP lose UP, it specifically lost the constituency — the city of Faizabad — in which the Ayodhya temple is located. It’s as direct an electoral rebuke to BJP ideology as one can imagine.

In Maharashtra, the second largest state, the BJP made a tactical alliance with a local politician, Ajit Pawar, facing serious corruption charges. Voters seemingly punished Modi’s party for turning a blind eye to Pawar’s offenses against the public trust. Across the country, Muslim voters turned out for the opposition to defend their rights against Modi’s attacks.

The global lesson here is clear: Even popular authoritarians can overreach.

By turning “400 seats” into a campaign slogan, an all-but-open signal that he intended to remake the Indian state in his illiberal image, Modi practically rang an alarm bell for constituencies worried about the consequences. So they turned out to stop him en masse.

The BJP’s electoral underperformance is, in no small part, the direct result of their leader’s zealotry going too far.

Return of the Gandhis? 

Of course, Modi’s mistakes might not have mattered had his rivals failed to capitalize. The Indian opposition, however, was far more effective than most observers anticipated.

Perhaps most importantly, the many opposition parties coordinated with each other. Forming a united bloc called INDIA (Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance), they worked to make sure they weren’t stealing votes from each other in critical constituencies, positioning INDIA coalition candidates to win straight fights against BJP rivals.

The leading party in the opposition bloc — Congress — was also more put together than people thought. Its most prominent leader, Rahul Gandhi, was widely dismissed as a dilettante nepo baby: a pale imitation of his father Rajiv and grandmother Indira, both former Congress prime ministers. Now his critics are rethinking things.

“I owe Rahul Gandhi an apology because I seriously underestimated him,” says Manjari Miller, a senior fellow at the Council on Foreign Relations.

Miller singled out Gandhi’s yatras (marches) across India as a particularly canny tactic. These physically grueling voyages across the length and breadth of India showed that he wasn’t just a privileged son of Indian political royalty, but a politician willing to take risks and meet ordinary Indians where they were. During the yatras, he would meet directly with voters from marginalized groups and rail against Modi’s politics of hate.

“The persona he’s developed — as somebody kind, caring, inclusive, [and] resolute in the face of bullying — has really worked and captured the imagination of younger India,” says Suryanarayan. “If you’ve spent any time on Instagram Reels, [you’ll see] an entire generation now waking up to Rahul Gandhi’s very appealing videos.”

This, too, has a lesson for the rest of the world: Tactical innovation from the opposition matters even in an unfair electoral context.

There is no doubt that, in the past 10 years, the BJP stacked the political deck against its opponents. They consolidated control over large chunks of the national media, changed campaign finance law to favor themselves, suborned the famously independent Indian Electoral Commission, and even intimidated the Supreme Court into letting them get away with it. 

The opposition, though, managed to find ways to compete even under unfair circumstances. Strategic coordination between them helped consolidate resources and ameliorate the BJP cash advantage. Direct voter outreach like the yatra helped circumvent BJP dominance in the national media.

To be clear, the opposition still did not win a majority. Modi will have a third term in office, likely thanks in large part to the ways he rigged the system in his favor.

Yet there is no doubt that the opposition deserves to celebrate. Modi’s power has been constrained and the myth of his invincibility wounded, perhaps mortally. Indian voters, like those in Brazil and Poland before them, have dealt a major blow to their homegrown authoritarian faction.

And that is something worth celebrating.

ASSAM FLOODS – DISASTER AMID NATURE

Assam, a renowned state with picturesque landscapes, is known for its natural beauty and rich culture. It is home to various hills and mountain ranges, from the Patkai Range to the Khasi Hills, adding to its beauty. The state is also home to the Brahmaputra, one of the largest rivers in the country, popularly known as the "Sorrow of Assam." Describing the river in such a vague term carries significant meaning for many people that most of us tend to overlook. The beauty of the Brahmaputra also brings with it a never-ending array of destruction and sorrow. Each year, the river swells and overflows, leading to widespread floods that wreak havoc across Assam. The floodwaters submerge villages, farmlands, and wildlife sanctuaries, displacing thousands of people and animals. The relentless floods result in the loss of lives, homes, crops, and livestock, leaving behind a trail of devastation.

The human toll of the Assam floods is immense. Thousands of families are forced to evacuate their homes and take refuge in relief camps. The loss of shelter and livelihood plunges them into uncertainty and despair. The floods also disrupt access to clean water, food, and healthcare, exacerbating the suffering of the affected communities. Moreover, it also results in the closing of schools and colleges as they either submerge or are converted into shelters for affected people.

Addressing the issue of Assam floods requires a multifaceted approach. Improving infrastructure, such as building more robust embankments and dams, is crucial. Additionally, implementing effective early warning systems and emergency response plans can help minimize the impact of floods. Sustainable land and water management practices, along with reforestation efforts, can also play a significant role in mitigating the effects of floods.

I cannot say that a lot has been done, but I can surely say that the government can do a lot or has to be done. Both the central and state governments need to take action at the moment to save the beautiful landscape from drowning in the hands of nature. Most of the dams are poorly built, and even though the Chief Minister belongs to the ruling party, the state lacks proper infrastructure in flood-affected areas, with muddy roads and bamboo bridges that fail to stand before the deadly floods.

To quote the 2024 budget, the total receipts other than borrowings and the total expenditure are estimated at ₹32.07 lakh crore and ₹48.21 lakh crore, respectively.  The finance Minister announced a comprehensive financial package worth Rs 11,500 crore to bolster flood management initiatives and irrigation projects in various flood-affected states across the nation. We have to wait and see how much of this money actually goes for flood management practices and how much of it goes in the hands of greedy politicians and contractors.“Assam grapples with floods every year by the Brahmaputra River and its tributaries, originating outside India. We will assist Assam in flood management and related projects,” Sitharaman said in her Budget speech in Lok Sabha. The death of thousands is reduced to a mere sentence. Are they being oblivious? They can’t be if we are together.

There are divergent paths that can be taken by the government as well as by people to tackle this age-old problem. The first would be the development of the infrastructure by constructing embankments and dykes. Community preparedness would be a secondary choice if the state had basic infrastructural facilities. The government should also develop and regularly practice community evacuation plans, ensuring everyone knows the safest routes and emergency shelters. For example, in 2022, the Assam State Disaster Management Authority (ASDMA) introduced the "Flood Preparedness Index" to enhance flood management. This tool involves creating scorecards for each district to evaluate disaster preparedness. District disaster management officers manually answer a series of "yes/no" questions to assess administrative compliance with predefined actions required before the monsoon season. While these parameters are essential, they only measure preparedness and do not account for comprehensive data on losses, needs, or vulnerabilities, nor do they consider how these factors vary across districts or contexts or what actions are necessary to mitigate the worst impacts of floods on people.

The Flood Report as of 03-07-2022 stated that 26 districts were affected: Bajali, Barpeta, Biswanath, Cachar, Chirang, Darrang, Dhemaji, Dibrugarh, Dima-Hasao, Goalpara, Golaghat, Hailakandi, Hojai, Kamrup, Kamrup (M), Karimganj, Lakhimpur, Majuli, Morigaon, Nagaon, Nalbari, Sivasagar, Sonitpur, Tamulpur, Tinsukia, Udalguri, Dibrugarh. Rivers flowing above the danger level included Kopili (Dharamtul), Disang (Nanglamuraghat), Burhidihing (Chenimari(Khowang)), and Brahmaputra (Dhubri; Tezpur; Neamatigha). The Assam Flood Report as of 05-08-2024 stated that only three districts – Sivasagar, Golaghat, and Dhemaji – were affected. But in reality, more than three were affected, as there was no mention of my home district, Nagaon, where many old artificial mounds were broken, leading to loss of lives and property.

The International Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) observed in the first installment of its Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) that was released on 9 August 2021 that “…the frequency and intensity of heavy precipitation events have increased since the 1950s over most land areas” and that “human-induced climate change is likely the main driver.” Thus, as climate change tips toward a full-blown crisis, northeast India faces the prospect of more extreme rainfall. The ongoing floods in Assam should be seen as a wake-up call that finally galvanizes action on adaptation. Although engineering solutions such as embankments still have a role to play in mitigating floods, they are no longer sufficient. Nature-based solutions, therefore, have an obvious place in Assam’s flood defense toolbox and provide a powerful complement (or alternative) to engineering solutions. Working alongside engineering solutions, nature-based solutions will boost the overall resilience at all levels of flooding.

The floods of Assam highlight the fragile balance between nature’s beauty and its devastating power. It shows how nature can quench your thirst and drown you simultaneously. Addressing this requires more than just infrastructure; it calls for innovative flood management and community preparedness as well as the voices of the people of this land. As climate change intensifies the challenge, urgent and collaborative action is needed to protect Assam's people and preserve its rich heritage.

[ad_1] GG News Bureau Bengaluru, 23rd November. The Congress emerged victorious in all three assembly bypolls in Karnataka, dealing a blow to the BJP and JD(S) while reinforcing its position in the state. The results, declared on Saturday, saw Congress candidates defeating prominent rivals, including close family members of BJP and JD(S) stalwarts. In Shiggaon, Yasir Pathan defeated Bharath Bommai, son of former Chief Minister Basavaraj Bommai. Pathan’s win marks a significant upset in Bommai’s stronghold. In Channapatna, BJP turncoat CP Yogeshwara triumphed over JD(S) leader HD Kumaraswamy’s son with a massive margin. Congress’s Annapoorna Tukaram secured victory in Sandur, defeating BJP’s Bangara Hanumantha by 9,649 votes. Shivakumar Hails “People’s Mandate” Deputy Chief Minister DK Shivakumar celebrated the victories, framing them as a rejection of opposition allegations and a sign of support for Congress’s governance. “This is a message from the people for what Basavaraj Bommai’s government failed to deliver. Only two things work: development and guarantees. The people have spoken, and this is just the beginning. We will return to power in 2028,” Shivakumar said. He further credited the success to Congress’s welfare initiatives, such as the Gruhalakshmi and Gruhajyothi schemes, which he said had a direct impact on people’s lives. “We are spending ₹55,000 crore for development and the welfare of the people. This victory is proof that these initiatives resonate with the masses,” he added. A Blow to the BJP and JD(S) Shivakumar didn’t hold back from taking jabs at the BJP and JD(S), asserting that their attempts to target the Congress leadership had backfired. “Kamala (the BJP’s lotus symbol) should stay in the lake, and the JD(S) plough belongs in the field. The people have rejected the baseless allegations made against Chief Minister Siddaramaiah and other Congress leaders,” he quipped. The loss in Shiggaon is particularly significant for the BJP, as Basavaraj Bommai had earlier expressed confidence in retaining the seat, citing his 36,000-vote margin from the last election. Meanwhile, JD(S) leader HD Kumaraswamy had campaigned aggressively in Channapatna to secure a win for his son, but the result was a stark setback for the party. The Karnataka bypoll results come amid the announcement of assembly election results in Maharashtra and Jharkhand, as well as bypolls across 48 assembly seats and two Lok Sabha constituencies in 15 states. Early trends in Karnataka had initially shown a lead for the BJP in Shiggaon, but the Congress gained momentum as counting progressed. With this sweep, the Congress not only cements its grip on Karnataka but also sends a signal to the BJP-led NDA and JD(S) alliance ahead of future electoral battles in the state.   The post Congress Wins All Three Karnataka Bypolls, DK Shivakumar Calls It “A Message From the People appeared first on Global Governance News- Asia's First Bilingual News portal for Global News and Updates.

Maharashtra Unfiltered: Raw Politics, Daily Delivered – 15 November 2024

As Maharashtra gets ready for its assembly elections on November 20, 2024, there is a lot of competition in the political world and big changes are happening. The upcoming elections are not just another election; they are also a turning point in the state’s government, with different groups competing for power against a background of new scandals and policy changes.

Important Political Events

Sharad Pawar’s Views on Government

Sharad Pawar, who is the leader of the Nationalist Congress Party (NCP), is one of the most important voices in this election period. At a recent campaign event in Chinchwad, Pawar spoke out against the current government, saying that Maharashtra has “fallen into the wrong hands” and that the state’s infrastructure has gotten worse while they’ve been in charge[1, 3]. His comments support a larger story told by opposition parties that want to take advantage of people’s dissatisfaction with the performance of the ruling alliance.

The BJP’s Big Promises to Help People

In answer to criticism, the Mahayuti alliance, which is led by Chief Minister Eknath Shinde and includes the BJP, has released an ambitious budget of ₹6.12 lakh crore that includes a lot of welfare programs. Some of these are free LPG tanks for families living below the poverty line and money for women [2, 4]. It looks like the BJP’s plan is a calculated attempt to win back voters’ trust after a disappointing showing in the Lok Sabha. This will likely be a big part of their campaign narrative.

Health as a Key Issue in the Election

These days, health care is one of the most important issues in party platforms. The opposition coalition, Maha Vikas Aghadi (MVA), supports a “Right to Healthcare” policy that would give everyone access to health services[1, 3]. The BJP’s “Mission Swasth Maharashtra” plans to put a lot of money into public health. This shift toward health-focused initiatives shows that public health needs are becoming more apparent after the COVID-19 pandemic, making health care a major problem for voters.

Political Leaders and Groups

Factional fights within the big parties make things even more complicated in politics. The Shiv Sen is split into two groups, led by Uddhav Thackeray and Eknath Shinde. The NCP is also split into two groups, led by Sharad Pawar and Ajit Pawar[2, 5]. This division could have a big effect on the results of the election as people decide which groups best serve their needs.

Arguments and Points of View

In the middle of these events, there have been controversies about claims that businesses have an effect on political choices. Leaders of the opposition have said that Gautam Adani, a business figure, is trying to change Maharashtra’s politics to benefit the BJP. This suggests that his goals may not align with those of the people of the state[3, 4]. Opposition parties are using this story more and more to try to make the elections seem like a fight against the power of corporations in politics.

Effects on the Political Scene in Maharashtra

Maharashtra’s politics are about to change a lot because of the upcoming elections. A strong showing by either the Shiv Sena or the NCP could make their coalitions stronger and help them work together better. On the other hand, if the union led by the BJP is able to keep its power, it could keep its supporters stable but also lead to more scrutiny of its track record as a government.

What the voters think about these groups and their leaders will be shown by the polls. Voter turnout is likely to reflect wider societal concerns about the quality of government, economic stability, and issues of social justice, especially for marginalized groups like the Marathas, who have been vocal about their need for reservation policies[1, 2].

Bottom Line

As Maharashtra’s assembly elections get closer, the way that welfare promises, health programs, partisan politics, and claims of corporate influence interact will determine not only the results of the elections but also the state’s future government. This election is very important for Maharashtra’s political prospects because voters have to make tough choices that will have direct effects on their lives.

 Narendra Damodardas Modi, a name that resonates with millions across India and beyond, stands as a pivotal figure in contemporary Indian politics. Serving as the 14th Prime Minister of India since May 26, 2014, Modi's leadership has been marked by significant economic, social, and political changes. This essay explores Narendra Modi's life, his tenure as the Chief Minister of Gujarat, his ascent to the Prime Ministership, and the impacts and controversies of his policies on the national and international stage.Narendra Modi was born on September 17, 1950, in Vadnagar, a small town in Gujarat, India. Coming from a modest background, Modi's early life was shaped by his family's financial struggles. His father, Damodardas Mulchand Modi, ran a tea stall, where young Narendra often helped. These humble beginnings instilled in him a sense of discipline, resilience, and a strong work ethic.From a young age, Modi showed an inclination towards public service and spirituality. He was deeply influenced by the teachings of Swami Vivekananda and the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), a Hindu nationalist organization. Joining the RSS as a pracharak (campaigner) in his youth, Modi's early involvement with the organization played a crucial role in shaping his ideological foundation and political career.

His tenure saw the implementation of policies that attracted significant foreign and domestic investment, particularly in the manufacturing sector. Initiatives such as the Vibrant Gujarat Summit became instrumental in promoting Gujarat as a business-friendly state.

Modi's tenure as Chief Minister was not without controversy. The most significant of these was the 2002 Gujarat riots, a period of intense communal violence that resulted in the loss of many lives. Modi's handling of the riots drew severe criticism both domestically and internationally. Accusations of inadequate response and complicity in the violence haunted his career, leading to numerous investigations and widespread condemnation.Despite these challenges, Modi managed to retain his position as Chief Minister, winning consecutive elections in Gujarat. His ability to deliver economic growth and development projects played a key role in his political survival. The Gujarat model of development, characterized by rapid industrialization and infrastructure development, became a cornerstone of his political narrative.
