The Modi Government’s game plan behind passing the three farm laws; and the farcical manner in which it has entered into negotiations with the farmers’ groups. But the farmers have seen through every trick being played by the government.
The Prime Minister’s arguments lack sincerity and are being used only to divert attention from the many flaws in our electoral laws and practices, including those relating to safeguards in the use of EVMs and to the use of post-election defections to gain power.
An outrageous act of censorship against one of the most important advocates of free speech.
Education is a human right, legally guaranteed in India for all children without any discrimination. Shockingly, Covid-19 has adversely impacted the education of 290 million children.
The pandemic has unravelled India’s broken health care system and we must implement urgent reforms to fix it.
The creation of an exclusive, State-driven, contact tracing enhancer for smartphone users in India during Covid times has multiple faults. The primary one is that there is considerable mystery about where the data is being stored and to what extent it is protected.

Press Release, demanding that the government ensure the implementation of the Constitutional guarantee of educational justice to the more than 60 lakh SC and ST students in the country.

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.
