| Summary/Abstract |
The Armed Forces Special Powers Act (AFSPA) dates back to 1958
when it was passed by the Indian Parliament to quell the Naga rebellion
in a so-called disturbed area. Later it was extended to the states
of Assam, Manipur, Tripura, parts of Meghalaya and Arunachal Pradesh
and later to Jammu and Kashmir in 1990. This Act is a legacy of a
colonial power. The Armed Forces (Special Powers) Ordinance, 1942,
was used by the British to quell dissent during the Second World War.
But even before that it was used as an instrument of repression which
led to the Jallianwala Bagh massacre. It is ironic that a free country
would be waging a war against its own people using all forms of
brutality to secure the nation-building agenda of the State. Why else
would you use the military for an internal rebellion?

| Summary/Abstract |
On the 11
th
of July 2004, the personnel of the Assam Rifles picked up a
young woman from her house in Thoubal district at about 2300 hours.
Her house was searched but nothing was found. The Assam Rifles
personnel then arrested her and left after leaving an arrest memo stating
that they had not found anything incriminating. The next morning her
body was found on a nearby hillock with several bullet injuries around
her waist and abdomen. The local people who found her body naturally
thought that she had been raped. This was followed by the extraordinary
spectacle of a group of middle aged and elderly women leading a
march to the gate of the Assam Rifles and disrobing themselves
demanding that they should be raped. The valley then exploded in a
violent agitation that lasted more than a month. Regrettably the reaction
from the Centre was most unsympathetic. The statements made by
some senior officials were particularly insensitive. One stated that the
lady, Thangjom Manorama was a PLA cadre and she was an explosives
expert and several security personnel had been hurt and killed by her
explosive devices. This seemed to imply that her killing was justified.

| Summary/Abstract |
Interrogating Aadhaar, India’s biometric ID project for its billion-plus residents, in the small north-eastern state of Tripura, where it first achieved high levels of acceptance, reveals that ‘success’ at enrolments into the database was dependent on the subversion of its celebrated biometric potentials by a local mediating bureaucracy. By limiting enrolments to previously documented subjects and enrolling Aadhaar into an ongoing regional situation of strife and reconciliation, the work of the bureaucracy highlights the contextual, territorial conditions of securitisation within which a biometric database takes shape. This paper aims to challenge claims about Aadhaar as an emblematic case of biometric governance ushering in a ‘new’ state, instead suggesting linkages with existing forms of state practices and ongoing state projects.

| Summary/Abstract |
This article compares the fortunes of the government coalitions under the leadership of the Communist Party of India (Marxist) or CPI(M) in Kerala, West Bengal and Tripura. The pattern of development and the success of the coalitions differ. In Kerala, the Left has lost every other election, whereas in West Bengal and Tripura, it has won many consecutive elections. West Bengal has seen stagnation in terms of human development, whereas Kerala and Tripura turned-to different degrees-into model states for human development. It is argued that the reasons for these different paths are to be found in the different strategies followed by the regional party units. Developmental success has been delivered through a mobilisation-based approach which has been followed inKerala and Tripura, but given up in West Bengal. This study explores thethree cases and elaborates on the reasons for the choice of strategies in the three states.

| Summary/Abstract |
The paper aims to understand the role of school textbooks and curriculum in shaping the majority and minority identity in Tripura. Though Tripura is a tribal majority state, the partition of the country led to the influx of Bengali Hindus. Based on the sociological analysis of history and language textbooks in Tripura schools, the paper argues that the state is systematically projecting the Bengali Hindu identity as ideal and marginalising the identity of diverse tribal groups. Dominant language, religion and cultural practices of the Bengalis were celebrated whereas the linguistic diversity and spiritual pathways of the subaltern communities are either ignored or mentioned peripherally. Since the inception of formal education in Tripura, the state failed to develop the tribal languages and script which led to the ideological submission of ethnic groups to the dominant identity. Thus, Tripura witnessed an ideological shift from the multiple identities to monolithic identity works on the principle of Banglanization of the state and civil society.

As the old saying goes that “the grass looks greener on the other side of the fence.” The migration crisisis a crisis that stands as one of the most important geopolitical challenges today in the world. The twenty-first century is the century of the migrant, being global mobility a highly stratified phenomenon, from the global tourist to the undocumented employee, and from human trafficking to refugees forced to leave their country of origin because of climate changes, poverty or wars (Castles & Miller).
