Video: Farmers Protests of the Punjab by Hartosh Singh Bal (Dec 18, 2020) 25 December The current protests by the same Sikh Jat peasantry (and the allied Hindu Jat protestors in Haryana which was part of erstwhile Punjab till the 1960s) draws upon the same base that has fuelled agrarian protests in Punjab going back 120 years, tracing an arc through the opposition to the British to insurgency in Punjab. The motivations of the current protest are born out of the implementation of the Green Revolution in these two states. The talk hopes to cover both this history and motivation. Video: Did Mr.Jinnah Really Want Pakistan? Pervez Hoodbhoy Dr Ishtiaq Ahmed 25 December Some historians have claimed that Pakistan was thrust upon an unwilling Jinnah by the Indian National Congress. Dr. Ishtiaq Ahmed rejects this in his new path-breaking book "Jinnah". In his conversation with Dr. Pervez Hoodbhoy, he also says we should not give too much importance to the promises made to Pakistan s minorities by Jinnah in his famous speech of 11 August 1947. India: PM Must Stop Baseless Accusations - Repeal Farm Laws - Joint Statement by Opposition Parties | Dec 24, 2020 24 December We, the undersigned, register our strong protest against the baseless allegations being made by Prime Minister Modi accusing the opposition parties of “repeatedly lying” to the farmers about the new farm laws and “using them for their politics”. The Prime Minister’s accusations are a complete travesty of truth. India: Uttar Pradesh Prohibition of Unlawful Conversion of Religion Ordinance, 2020: A Weapon to Wreck Havoc on the Innocent | Neha Dabhade by Neha Dabhade, 22 December The state of Uttar Pradesh is in the grips of the draconian law called Uttar Pradesh Prohibition of Unlawful Conversion of Religion Ordinance, 2020. This ordinance is essentially based on the conspiracy theory of the Hindu nationalists that Hindu women are seduced or lured by Muslim men in order to covert them to Islam under the pretext of marriage. While the claim is not supported by even a shred of evidence in terms of official data about such conversions, the UP government has been relentless in its propagation of falsehood.
