that seeks to amend forest act Aug 03, 2023 https://www.hindustantimes.com/india-news/parliament-clears-contentious-bill-that-seeks-to-amend-forest-act-101691002458287.html The Rajya Sabha cleared the contentious Forest Conservation (Amendment) bill 2023 on Wednesday, opening the door for development and exploitation of vast tracts of forest lands that are not recorded as such in government records and potentially endangering sensitive ecosystems in the Northeast that fall under a national security exemption. The forest bill was passed after a debate lasting one hour and 40 minutes without any member from the Opposition that walked out over the violence in Manipur.
And, with the controversial Biological Diversity Amendment bill -- which sparked a row for exempting users of traditional knowledge and Ayush practitioners from sharing benefits with local communities -- that was passed by the Upper House on Tuesday, it marks the beginning of a new era in India’s environmental protection regime.

Dark Side of India's Data Protection Bill | Deshbhakt Takeover Ep3 - ft Anjali Bharadwaj https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=p_ERWLezCzI Aug 2, 2023
The Data Protection Bill is finally set to be tabled in Parliament. While important for India's Digital Infrastructure - there are serious concerns about the Bill. Besides the issue of Govt. infringing on our right to privacy - it could also be diluting the provisions of the Right to Information Act, 2005.

The dangers in the Digital Personal Data Protection Bill https://www.thehindu.com/opinion/lead/the-dangers-in-the-digital-personal-data-protection-bill/article67147030.ece
With the executive vastly empowered to draft rules and notifications on a range of issues, India might end up with a law that takes away the right to seek personal information
August 02, 2023 ANJALI BHARDWAJ,AMRITA JOHRI
https://www.thehindu.com/opinion/op-ed/the-problems-with-the-data-protection-bill/article66531928.ece the Bill seeks to dilute the provisions of the Right to Information (RTI) Act, which has empowered citizens to access information and hold governments accountable. Experience has shown that if people, especially the poor and marginalised, are to have any hope of obtaining the benefits of welfare programmes, they must have access to relevant, granular information. For instance, the National Food Security Act recognises the need for placing the details of ration card holders and records of ration shops, including sale and stock registers, in the public domain to enable social audits of the public distribution system. In the absence of publicly accessible information, it is impossible for intended beneficiaries to access their rightful entitlement of food grains. This is equally true for delivery of other social security programmes such as old age pensions and scholarships. It is behind the cloak of secrecy that the rights of individuals are most frequently abrogated and corruption thrives. In recognition of this principle, democracies ensure public disclosure of voters’ lists with names, addresses and other details to enable scrutiny and prevent electoral fraud

मणिपुर पर सख़्त सुप्रीम कोर्ट | SC tough on Manipur issue https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t_Sj24MdshA Ravish Kumar views Jul 31, 2023 प्रधानमंत्री क्यों संसद में नहीं बोल रहे हैं, मणिपुर क्यों नहीं जा रहे हैं, इसका जवाब आपको मिलेगा चीफ़ जस्टिस के सवालों से। चीफ़ जस्टिस ने सरल भाषा में समझा दिया कि क्यों मणिपुर की महिलाओं का जो वीडियो है, उसे आप देश भर में औरतों के साथ हिंसा से तुलना नहीं कर सकते। उन्होंने इसे सिस्टेमिक वायलेंस कहा है यानी ऐसी हिंसा जो कोई अलग-थलग घटना नहीं है लेकिन एक प्रणाली के तहत हो रही है। चीफ़ जस्टिस ने कहा है कि पुलिस ने इन दो महिलाओं को भीड़ के हवाले किया है इसलिए यह बिलकुल ही अलग मामला है। सांसद मनोज झा ने कहा है कि ये आग लगाई गई है। विपक्ष के सांसद मणिपुर के दौरे से वापिस आ गए हैं और उनके ब्योरे भयावह हैं। लेकिन फिर भी संवाद की जगह सरकार आपको केवल विपक्ष पर हमलावर नज़र आएगी और मणिपुर पर चुप।
"Protect All Daughters Or No One?" Supreme Court's Tough Manipur Questions https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/supreme-court-on-manipur-viral-video-manipur-women-paraded-naked-manipur-viral-video-incident-not-isolated-chief-justice-asks-how-many-firs-registered-4254901
Manipur Sexual Assault Case In Supreme Court: The top court was hearing the centre's request to transfer the case of two women being paraded naked in strife-torn Manipur to a different state. July 31, 2023
"The government doesn't have the data now to tell you how many such cases have been registered. That shows the state of affairs," senior advocate Kapil Sibal, representing the two women, said while requesting a Supreme Court-monitored probe.
The court asked the Centre how many of around 6,000 FIRs filed since the violence broke out in Manipur were for crimes against women. The Centre said it did not have a break-up of such cases..
The survivors are traumatised and terrorised. We are not sure whether the survivors will tell the truth to a CBI team. They should have the confidence to tell the truth," Senior Advocate Indira Jaising said, asking for a high-powered committee of women members from civil society, so these survivors could come forward and share the truth.
"Merely entrusting to CBI or SIT would not be enough. We will have to picture a situation where a 19-year-old woman who has lost her family is in a relief camp. We cannot have her going to magistrate. We have to ensure that the process of justice goes to her doorstep. We will constitute a committee of women judges and members of civil society, who will in turn get the assistance of members of civil societies," the court said.

the official sources reportedly said Mrs. Shweta was spreading “blatant falsehoods and trying to create a false impression about the absence of fair trial in the case”
The case is related to the custodial deaths of Prabhudas Vaishnani, who was among 133 people caught by local Jamnagar police after a communal riot broke out following a bandh call in view of BJP leader L K Advani’s Rath Yatra.
Continuing, Mrs. Shweta revealed how to fast track justice became fast track injustice when Sanjiv Bhatt in about record 18 days time was convicted for a crime he had not committed. Firstly, she said her husband had “neither arrested nor detained anyone as he was not empowered to do so. Secondly, Prabhudas died 18 days after he was detained. He never complained of torture before the magistrate or anybody else.”
She called her husband’s conviction a “miscarriage of justice”, and claimed that he had been “implicated in a fabricated case”. She claimed that the complaint filed against her husband was a “classic case of political vindictiveness”.
“It was not the family of Prabhudas but a member of the Vishwa Hindu Parishad, Amrutlal Madjavji Vaishnani, who filed a complaint of custodial torture,” she claimed.

*31st July, 2023:* Excerpts of Statement: Numerous national platforms, people’s organizations and social activists from across India lent solidarity to the ongoing democratic protests by the Gujjar Bakarwal and other tribal communities in Jammu and Kashmir, who have been resisting a politically-motivated Bill of the Union Govt, that seeks to grant Scheduled Tribe status to non-STs in the region. The statement, initiated by NAPM, has been endorsed by many adivasi and other activists, advocates, academics, retired bureaucrats, concerned citizens from more than 15+ states, and from within Jammu and Kashmir, in solidarity with the ongoing struggle.
.. the Union Tribal Affairs Ministry and the National Commission of Scheduled Tribes (NCST), has in fact green signalled this proposal to include non-STs. .. This happened within a month of Union Home Minister Amit Shah’s public announcement and assurance of reservations to the ‘Pahadis’ (non-STs) in Rajouri in Oct’ 22 ... the ulterior moves of the BJP Govt. to extend Scheduled Tribe Status to non-tribal groups and create further social strife in a region of historical conflict that has already been bearing the brunt of violence and militarization over decades. ..
... the Govt’s insistence on pushing through these Bills despite grassroots opposition, should not become a pretext for the State to view it only as a ‘‘law and order problem’ and crack down on the democratic movement. Be it in Manipur or J&K, the BJP’s anti-tribal and anti-people policies must be opposed by citizens across India and **peaceful political resolution to the tribal struggles needs to be explored. *
