‘Who Does June 4 Belong to?’; ‘A New Dawn’: With no one party with a clear majority, it means a return to the days of more parliamentary influence on governance; ‘Results That Give Hindutva a Jolt’; ‘Voters Force Narendra Modi to Become a Labharthi of his Allies’.
A collective of citizens and organisations together released a “charge sheet” on February 9, 2024 against the Government of India showcasing how this regime, into its second term, has subverted parliamentary democracy.
‘How Did the Muslim Vote?’: Despite being the target of the Prime Minister’s public speeches and facing continuous discrimination, the Muslim voter has voted in support of saving the Constitution and India’s democracy. Also: ‘‘A Little Less Suffocating: Why Many Muslims View the Lok Sabha Verdict with Cautious Hope”.
The exclusion and criminalisation of Muslim citizens through laws and state action are not as explicit as in Nazi Germany, but they violate the Constitution.
Parliamentary procedures have been tossed aside as an increasing number of laws are passed with little or no debate.
There is little reason to believe that a third term for Modi will result in the revival of Indian scientific research and innovation.
The Sub Committee of Accreditation of the Global Alliance of National Human Rights Institutions decided to defer the accreditation of India’s National Human Rights Commission (NHRC-India) for the second consecutive year.
Building on an inclusive Dravidian politics, the Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam has provided leadership to the opposition alliance countering the Bharatiya Janata Party, and Tamil Nadu has shown a better path for India’s development.
In France, the far right is likely to be the leading political force in the European elections of 9 June 2024, and probably the second (or third) force in the European Union. A relatively large number of far right parties are now on the winning side in national elections, and are even taking part in national governments.
On the 79th anniversary of the Russian victory over Nazi Germany.
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.
