India’s oldest Socialist Weekly!
Editor: Dr. G.G. Parikh | Associate Editor: Neeraj Jain | Managing Editor: Guddi
Even as Droupadi Murmu is set to become the country’s first president to emerge from a tribal community, Adivasis in Odisha – her home state – continue to face the brunt of a brutal repression for their opposition to a steel plant in Dhinkia.
The Adivasis and Dalit farmers have opposed mining in Mail Parbat due to environmental reasons and religious sentiments.
As the Indian government is confronted with a global snooping scandal with over 300 journalists, politicians and bureaucrats on the list of those surveilled by the state, the Modi government had intensified its bid to rampage through the country’s latest Internet Technology laws.
The Act, which aimed to decentralise power and empower indegneous communities, has completed 25 years in existence, but faces glaring incompetence, gross violations and structural loopholes.
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.
