India’s oldest Socialist Weekly!

Uttar Pradesh ranked as the top state for crimes against women in 2022. In 2023, multiple incidents involved the kidnapping and rape of women, with video clips of the crimes posted online. The State BJP unit faced criticism for shielding party leaders accused of sexual crimes against women and children.
The Adityanath government has ushered in an era of unapologetic state vigilantism in Uttar Pradesh.
The country’s jails teem with poor and marginalised people detained without justification.
When the RTI Act came into force in 2005, it was hailed as a law which would make governments transparent and accountable, and empower citizens. Sadly, public-spirited RTI users are a disillusioned lot today, having to deal with targeted attacks, threats, and false criminal cases on a regular basis.
Janata Weekly is India’s oldest independent socialist weekly.
Ever since its founding in 1946, Janata has voiced its principled dissent against all conduct and practice that is detrimental to the cherished values of nationalism, democracy, secularism and socialism, while upholding the integrity and the ethical norms of healthy journalism. For more than seventy years now, week after week, it has continued to analyse the changes taking place in the country and the world from a socialist standpoint, and thus promote the spread of socialist ideology in the country.
Address: D-15, Ganesh Prasad, Naushir Bharucha Marg, Mumbai- 400007.
