Savour the quiet shade of a tree

On a Siris tree full of flowers, I watched a Yellow-footed green pigeon snap off a twig. Holding it carefully, it flew off to a Saptaparni tree. It returned to the Siris in a few minutes, looking for another twig to take. This could only mean one thing: I was close to a construction site. The bird was painstakingly building a nest, in which it would rear a family. Unlike their better-known cousins, the city-dwelling Blue-rock pigeons, Yellow-footed green pigeons are secretive birds that spend most of their life on trees. They hardly ever come down, roosting at the top of tree canopies at the end of the day. They are shy, and keep their distance from people. A sunbird will nest right in your garden. A Blue-rock pigeon will nest right inside your AC. Getting an insight into the lives of more cryptic birds through nest-building thus feels something like sighting ones favourite author at an airport. Every year, we clean out our ACs, and on most years we find a Blue-rock pigeons nest in it. It reminds me of the nests I found in the house and garden as a child. Red-vented bulbuls, with their bright calls, would nest in the pomegranate tree. There was an annual House sparrow nest behind a painting made by my grandfather in the drawing room. The birds entered through an open window (it was left ajar for them). In other years, the sparrows would nest inside the cups above ceiling fans. In the 90s, there werent any years without sparrow nests. Several generations fledged from the house. It was expected, in a ritual-like manner, that the house would nurture both birds and children. With the collapse of insects, House sparrows have reduced in many cities; they no longer come to us to nest. What remains is the ubiquitous, noisy Blue-rock pigeon, which has also displaced many other birds. The Blue-rock is so successful, there are theories that it may be behaving something like an invasive speciesthe kind that oust native species. They manage to nest everywhereespecially in the places we want to remove them from (including in between the spikes placed as a deterrent). So it becomes additionally special to find a bird like the Yellow-footed green pigeona bird which is seen a little less, a bird that needs some distance from us. It proves that we might have some spaces left which are still sheltered, a little undisturbed from the heat and dust of the city. When the pre-monsoon storms come, I wonder if the Saptaparni will fall. And where the green pigeon might go then. The tree explodes in fragrant blossoms in October, but till then it harbours the nests of the quieter birds. In observing the tree while looking for the bird, I realise: its not just the green pigeon which needs places to duck in, to hide a little. We need the deep, inviting shade of a native Indian tree too, perhaps more than we give it credit for.

The catastrophic canine crisis

Cases of strays or pet dogs, routinely attacking citizens and claiming lives, including those of children, regularly makes it to headlines. Recently, a five-year-old girl was mauled by two Rottweilers at a Nungambakkam park leading to a widespread public outcry. This prompted a typical knee-jerk response with the Tamil Nadu government declaring a ban against the import, sale and breeding of 23 dangerous dog breeds including Rottweilers, Pit Bulls, Terriers and Rhodesian Ridgebacks, similar to the one issued by the central government in March only to withdraw it within a matter of hours because the Madras high court and a few others had stayed the directive in response to protests by pet owners and breeders. This non-resolution to the canine crisis in India is typical and has re-ignited the debate on how to deal with the problem with animal lovers and activists arrayed against concerned citizens demanding stronger guidelines to deal with the strays and aggressive pets. The statistics are chilling. India accounts for about 36 per cent of the worlds rabies deaths. Deaths related to attacks by mans best friends and dog bite cases are staggeringly high. Worse, many such instances go unreported, especially in rural areas. Packs of strays running wild on the streets and roads, are ticking time bombs, endangering themselves as well as the citizenry. A suitable solution is possible provided committed action is taken by the Animal Welfare Board, state administration and the general populace working in tandem. Strays need to be gathered, vaccinated, neutered, and rehabilitated in dog shelters and sanctuaries to curb the burgeoning population and prevent attacks. Concerned citizens need to chip in with their time, money, and a willingness to adopt in order to supplement the efforts of the government. Pet control laws must be strictly enforced with owners ensuring that the four-legged members of the family are responsibly cared for and when taken out in public are suitably collared, leashed, and muzzled if necessary. A common complaint is that many people arbitrarily feed strays without taking overall responsibility for the dogs welfare which leads to these animals becoming territorial and more prone to attacking the unwary, when they are not fed. Which is why raising public awareness and educating people about how best to protect themselves while dealing with strays, treatment options for rabies, etc. are key to making it possible for humans and animals to coexist without harming each other. Ending the canine crisis entirely is going to be a challenge simply because heavy funds are required to sterilise and shelter these animals. Municipal bodies that arent corrupt or committed to enriching themselves at the expense of others, tend to divert the limited resources towards more pressing concerns prioritising human over animal welfare thereby endangering both and allowing a bad situation to worsen. There is also the question of euthanasia or culling unwanted strays demanded by practical necessities, but which raises questions about promoting cruelty to animals and failure to safeguard their rights. A sustainable, lasting, and humane solution to the canine crisis is not impossible to achieve, but it remains improbable. Anuja Chandramouli Author and new age classicist anujamouli@gmail.com

Only a reformed Judiciary can deliver timely justice

In the dynamic and rapidly evolving landscape of modern governance, characterised by a relentless pursuit of efficiency and effectiveness, the judiciary emerges as a cornerstone of the nations functioning. Charged with upholding the rule of law, safeguarding individual rights, and ensuring justice for all, it plays an indispensable role in the fabric of society. Yet, despite its fundamental importance, the credibility of the judiciary is increasingly under scrutiny, primarily due to the prolonged delays in dispensing justice. With each passing day, the backlog of cases swells, suffocating the legal system and impeding access to justice for countless individuals. Cases languish in judicial limbo for years, if not decades, leaving litigants disillusioned and disheartened. The human toll of this inertia is most poignantly felt in cases where justice delayed tragically equates to justice denied. There are instances where the wheels of justice turn so agonizingly slow that the aggrieved party, whether victim or plaintiff, does not live to witness the resolution. Moreover, the endemic pending of cases undermines the foundational principles of democracy and the rule of law. Till February 2024, a staggering 5.1 crore cases are pending before the judiciary. The judiciarys credibility is inexorably linked to its ability to dispense justice in a timely and efficient manner, and yet, by all accounts, this vital function is in question. The urgent need for judicial reform through a parliamentary legislation has never been more apparent or pressing. It is imperative that we address the systemic deficiencies that impede the expeditious resolution of cases and erode public confidence in the legal system. Comprehensive reforms aimed at streamlining judicial procedures, bolstering institutional capacity, and leveraging technology like AI, e-courts, etc. to enhance efficiency are essential steps toward realising this vision. I can recall the case of a civil dispute within my own family that lingered unresolved for a staggering nearly 70 years. Such egregious delays not only defy the principles of justice but also perpetuate a culture of impunity. One of the primary reasons for this delay is the manipulation of legal procedures by certain advocates, who prolong arbitration processes to inflate compensation amounts. Parliamentary intervention is imperative to set stringent timelines for case disposal. Additionally, expanding the judiciary by appointing more judges from the existing talent pool is crucial to alleviate the burden on the system. An All-India Judicial Services Exam can be taken into consideration to bridge the gap pertaining to the shortage of judges. Another pressing issue, is the working days of judiciary. While the Supreme Court of India will operate for only 190 working days, with 176 holidays in 2024, other governmental bodies toil tirelessly, often under the most demanding of circumstances. This stark dissonance in commitment to service underscores a fundamental imbalance, one that demands urgent rectification. To address this systemic imbalance, it is imperative that judicial service rules be aligned with those governing other branches of government. Recent judicial decisions, particularly those concerning the granting of bail to political figures like Arvind Kejriwal, have ignited a firestorm of controversy. While bail is undeniably a legal right afforded to all individuals, its grant under politically charged circumstances has the potential to cast a shadow of doubt over the judiciarys independence. It underscores the delicate balance between judicial discretion and public perception, highlighting the need for greater transparency and accountability. To address these concerns and reaffirm public faith in the judiciary, reforms aimed at enhancing transparency and accountability are urgently needed. Additionally, mechanisms for judicial oversight and review should be strengthened to ensure that decisions are made in accordance with established legal principles and precedents. While it is imperative to address flaws in governance mechanisms and uphold transparency in political financing, the judiciary must exercise prudence to prevent unintended consequences that could erode public trust. For instance, in the case of the electoral bond scheme, the judiciarys intervention inadvertently led to the revelation of donors identities, undermining the confidentiality provisions that were intended to protect their anonymity. In crafting a reform agenda, it is imperative to strike a balance between expediency and due process, preserving the integrity of the judicial system while addressing its shortcomings. Ultimately, the effectiveness of any democracy hinges on the strength of its institutions, particularly its judiciary. By undertaking comprehensive reforms to expedite case disposal, enhance judicial transparency, and bolster institutional capacity, we can reaffirm the judiciarys pivotal role in upholding the rule of law and ensuring equal access to justice for all.

Modi must beat whispers with his old Mystique

There are two simultaneous election campaigns underway: Modi Mystique and Whisper Wave. Number One is happening everywhere with pomp and promises. Number Two is a stealthy tinnitus spread by a vast web of organisations, individuals, political parties, social media activists and alternate media. The Whisper Wave, or WV, is an insidious net of labrish which cannot be attributed to a person, party or movement. Hence it could make any conspicuous figure of authority a sitting duck. In 2014, Modis formula was novelty, innovation and Hindu symbolism. If BJP then benefited from its aggressive social media blitz by lampooning Pappu and glorifying Modi, currently a well-planned counter social media fightback and contrarian YouTube channels are aggressively creating an alternate narrative and gaining traction. 2024 looks like samizdat time: in Communist Russia, where officially unsanctioned news and publications were banned, people got their news from underground publications, often handwritten, which they passed from reader to reader. Here is an example of todays Indian samizdata Facebook post, which has now mysteriously vanished: the staggering rise in viewership and subscription of independent news channels in the last few months (perhaps even weeks), curiously all Hindi, is a historic moment that would not have happened quite like this in 2019 even if the Opposition had come together then. Have atonal news channelsespecially Hindionce Modis biggest asset, become his worst weakness? WV is directed solely at bringing down Modi, not BJP. Because there is no BJP without Modi. The Whisperers insinuate that Modi is scared of losing and having ridiculous public meltdowns alleging Congress will steal mangalsutras to give to Muslims. Another WV tactic is disinformation: BJP will remove reservation for the weaker sections if they win. Hitlers master propagandist Joseph Goebbels explained his pet strategy as If you repeat a lie often enough it becomes the truth. The Whisperers keep repeating that Modi will lose, the RSS is not stumping for BJP in the heartland, Yogi will sabotage Modi to prevent being beamed up to Delhi from Lucknow and that the Supreme Court has exposed electoral bonds as corruption. Gossip, even false, has a tendency to stick. In the halcyon days of 2014, Modi stood for technology and development with a spicy soupcon of Hindutva: long before AI, Indian voters were treated to Modi holograms, crowdsourcing, Facebook dialogues and NaMo cellphones. A fawning medias adoration and a political combo of futurism and nationalism created Brand Modi. Its mystique won him two elections and innumerable state polls. However, mystique must be only invisibly omnipresent: why God is God. This time Modi Overkill is rampant. Slavering zombies are broadcasting Modi stories, Modi interviews and Modi statements, largely ignoring his adversaries. A raucous democracy like India admires an independent media; the honeymoon with high-decibel anchors seems to be getting over. It would be a pity if Indias most nationalist prime ministers mystique is diluted by media sycophancy. Narendra Modi is the only Indian PM who holds an independent foreign policy stand, has struck back against terrorism in its own nest, cancelled Article 370; and is also ironically the countrys most successful liberal (he would be horrified to hear it) for banning triple talaq and promising UCC if he wins. He must enhance his mystique by being heard more and seen less. Modi has enough to speak for 10 years of New India to hear its applause in the voting booths. Ravi Shankar ravi@newindianexpress.com

Premium will not increase after claim! Do these things while taking car insurance

Getting car insurance can be a daunting task, especially when you're worried about the premium shooting up after a claim. But fear not! With a few savvy moves, you can secure a policy that keeps your premium steady, even after making a claim. Lets dive into the steps you can take to make this happen. Understanding Car Insurance Premiums What Is a Car Insurance Premium? A car insurance premium is the amount you pay to keep your insurance policy active. This can be paid monthly, quarterly, or annually, depending on your insurers terms. Why Do Premiums Increase After Claims? Insurance companies raise premiums after claims because they view policyholders who have made claims as higher risk. This means they expect you might make more claims in the future. Factors Affecting Your Premium Driving Record: A clean driving record can keep your premiums low. Vehicle Type: The make and model of your car can impact your insurance cost. Location: Where you live plays a role in determining your premium. Credit Score: Some insurers use your credit score to assess your risk level. Strategies to Keep Your Premium Low Choose the Right Insurer Not all insurers treat claims the same. Some offer more forgiving policies for first-time claimants. Do your homework and find an insurer known for fair treatment of claims. Opt for a No-Claim Bonus (NCB) Protection An NCB is a discount that rewards you for not making any claims. Some insurers offer NCB protection, which means your bonus remains intact even after a claim. Increase Your Deductible A higher deductible means youll pay more out-of-pocket in the event of a claim, but it can significantly reduce your premium. Just ensure you can afford the deductible amount. Bundle Your Policies If you have multiple insurance needs (like home, health, or life insurance), consider bundling them with the same provider. Insurers often offer discounts for multi-policy holders. Install Safety Features Cars with advanced safety features like anti-theft devices, airbags, and ABS can attract lower premiums because they are less likely to be involved in accidents or stolen. Maintain a Good Credit Score A higher credit score can lead to lower premiums. Pay your bills on time, reduce debt, and check your credit report regularly. Review Your Coverage Annually Your insurance needs may change over time. Reviewing your policy annually can help you adjust coverage and potentially lower your premium. Making a Claim Without Increasing Your Premium Understand Your Policy Read the fine print of your insurance policy to understand how claims affect your premium. Some policies are more lenient with claims than others. Use NCB Protection Wisely If you have NCB protection, ensure it applies to the type of claim youre making. Some protections may only cover specific types of claims. Negotiate with Your Insurer If you have a long history with your insurer and have made few or no claims, use this to negotiate better terms after a claim. Consider Minor Repairs Out-of-Pocket For minor damages, it might be cheaper to pay for repairs yourself rather than filing a claim, which could increase your premium. Choose a Reputable Repair Shop Using an insurer-approved repair shop can sometimes help in keeping your premium stable after a claim, as these shops follow specific standards and pricing agreed with the insurer. Document Everything In case of an accident, document all details meticulously. Clear evidence and accurate records can prevent disputes and expedite the claims process. Ask About Claim Forgiveness Some insurers offer claim forgiveness, which means your premium wont increase after your first claim. This can be a valuable feature, so inquire about it when purchasing your policy. Shopping for Car Insurance Compare Quotes Dont settle for the first quote you get. Use comparison tools and seek quotes from multiple insurers to find the best deal. Check Reviews and Ratings Research the reputation of potential insurers. Look for customer reviews and ratings to ensure they handle claims fairly and efficiently. Understand the Coverage Make sure you understand whats included in your coverage. Sometimes, a cheaper premium means less coverage, which could cost you more in the long run. Ask About Discounts Inquire about available discounts, such as those for safe drivers, students, or veterans. Every bit of savings helps. Consider Usage-Based Insurance If you dont drive much, a usage-based insurance policy that charges based on the miles you drive could be a cost-effective option. Keeping Your Premium Low Over Time Drive Safely Adhering to traffic laws and avoiding accidents is the best way to keep your premium low. Safe driving records often lead to lower premiums. Monitor Your Mileage Some insurers offer discounts for low mileage. If you dont drive often, let your insurer know to possibly lower your premium. Update Your Insurer About Life Changes Life changes like moving to a safer neighborhood, getting married, or buying a new car with better safety features can reduce your premium. Keep your insurer updated. Take Defensive Driving Courses Completing a defensive driving course can sometimes earn you a discount. Check with your insurer if they offer this benefit. Install a Telematics Device Some insurers provide discounts for installing a telematics device that monitors your driving habits. Safe driving can lead to reduced premiums. Stay Loyal to Your Insurer Some insurers offer loyalty discounts. If youre happy with your insurer, sticking with them could result in long-term savings. Securing car insurance that doesnt hike your premium after a claim is all about being proactive. From choosing the right insurer to utilizing NCB protection, there are several strategies you can employ to keep your costs down. Always stay informed, review your policy regularly, and drive safely to maintain a stable and affordable insurance premium.
