Socio-Economic conditions of Muslims In India: .
Reflections on Sachar Committee Report .
Speaker: Prof T. K Oommen, .
.
Member, Sachar Committee and Formerly at CSSS, JNU .
Chair Prof. Md. Shahid Husain, GIL, JNU .
Godavari Mess 31.01.07( Today) i.30pm .
.
The 1mplicatjons of the Sachar Committee findings ought to be a JOlt to Indian democracy. The systemic backwardness, discrimination, neglect and exclusion towards the Mushm mmority is a telling comment on the weakness of lnd1an secularism. The Sangh Parivar's myth of 'Muslim appeasemenf stands revealed, and high degree of deprivation and discrimination faced by Muslims In states ruled by the so-called 'secular' formations, including Congress, RJD, SP and even CPI(M) also stands exposed. .
The Sachar Report records the daily battle the Muslims face with stereotypes and prejudices, and the deep scars thatcommunal violence leaves on this community. However, certain significant omissions and silences in the Sachar Report are dtsturbing. The Report finally tabled in Parliament ·failed to include the data on over-representation ofMuslims In prisons, though it recorded their gross under-representation in jobs and educational institutions. When the Sachar Committee had sought data from the military, the BJP had whipped up a frenzy, and the UPA Government succumbed to the communal pressure. The PMO had washed its hands offthe Committee .
then, and the Committee was not permitted to access data from the Armed Forces. It was also 'demoted' from a 'Prime Minister's High Level Committee' directly underthe PMO, to merely being under the Ministry of Minority Affairs The data on prisons and armed forces reveals the worst aspect of Muslim status-the fact that they face suspicion and persecution at the hands of the State. For such data to be suppressed under communal pressure is a matter of shame for the UPAGovernment. .
.
Among the Sachar Report's exposures, the most shocking and disappointing, perhaps, is the track-record of West Bengal, which has had a three-decade uninterrupted rule of the Left Front Government led by the CPI-CPI(M). Here, Muslims share In the population is on the higher side-25.2% (around a quarter of the State's population). Yet, it has one of the lowest shares of Muslims in Government employment: just 4.2%, and also the lowest percentage of Muslims In higher positions in State PSUs: a truly amazing zero percent! The percentage of Muslims employees in key positions in the state judiciary of West Bengal Is barely 5%. .
This data raises disturbing questions, because even though no outright communal violence occurred,justice for Muslims has not meant safeguards against discrimination nor the right to dignity, employment, education and economic progress. As a senior member of the Sachar Committee has commented, "States like West Bengal have provided physical security to Muslims or states like Biharand UP have politically empowered the backward .

castes, including Muslims, but this isn't translating to a level playing field when it comes to jobs oreconomic progress." .
In riots everywhere, we have seen how the economic bases of Muslim survival are the first to be attacked-be itthe shops IfAhmedabad or the weavers' looms of Mau. In States ruled by 'secular' and 'progressive' forces like the Congress. SP and CPI(M). such violence is not always brutal and physical -the economic bases of survival are attacked through systematic discrimination and denial instead. .
It 1s no surprise that the same Governments of Congress, SP, and even tl'le CPI(M) not only discriminate against Muslims tn the matter of jobs and judiciary -they also reinforce the "communal common sense" of hostility and suspicion against Muslims, branding them as "anti-national". The latest instance is that ofNandigram where, again. the primary basis of Muslim survival in the State -agnculture-IS being snatched away. Here, Muslim peasants protesting against eviction were branded as ''communal" by the ruling CPI(M). .
Today, the BJP is trying to whip up communal sentiment agatn st implementation of the Sachar Committee recommendations. rt remains to be seen whether the UPA Govt. succumbs to this pressure and condemns the Sachar recommendations to the fate met by the Gopal Singh Comm1ttee Report of 1983. .
The whole nat1on must, without bias, confront the find1ngs of the Sa char Report, and implement all its recommendations with an open mind In particular, we in JNU must take an extra 1n1t1ative to ensure that the Sachar Report's recommendations relating to education are streamlines and implemented. The Sachar report has recommended recognising Madarsa degrees for defence, civil and banking exams -In JNU too, we must make sure these degrees are recognised In the BA 1st year itself. Further, the Sachar Report has demanded a 1000 crore allocation for the Maulana Azad Education Foundation. This demand Is welcome and should be met by the Government without delay -but It Is Important that this allocation should be backed by a detailed, concrete plan, including scholarships for all Muslim students. The MHRD and UGC should come out with a scheme of scholarships for Muslim students on the lines of the Rajiv Gandhi scholarship for SC/ST students. .

I AN APPEAL TO THE STUDENTS OF SSS.
This year's JNUSU elect1ons are being held in the backdrop of sharpening contradictions between US-led imperialism on.
Friends. .
one hand and popular resistance to it on the other. The criminal invasion and occupation of Iraq has completely exposed the .
predatory character of imperialism. In response. people across the world have come together in historic protest actions that have .
'war without an end'. True to their .
been as much against the process of imperialist globalisation as against imperialism's barbaric traditions, JNU students have been part of this worldwide anti-imperialist upsurge, taking part in unprecedented numbers in .
mobilisations within the campus and outside against the war on Iraq. .
It is shameful that at this crucial ju,ncture the BJP-Ied government in power in our country has taken its surrender to US-At the same time. the RSS-BJP-VHP has intensified its efforts to disrupt the unity of the people through its communal campaigns..
imperialism to even more abject levels. going to the extent of offering our troops as mercenaries to defend the occupation of Iraq. .
As the Assembly and Lok Sabha elect1ons approach, the Sangh Giroh 1s raising the Ayodhya issue once again and the Prime .
Minister and Home Minister of our country have joined the VHP-Bajrang Dal in defying the law of the land and declaring that a temple would be built regardless of the Supreme Court's decision. In this campaign of hatred the RSS-BJP is resorting to a total misuse of the state machinery-as the ASI's fradulent report on the excavations in Ayodhya and the dropping of the charge-sheet .
against Advani show. .
Within the university, this increased aggressiveness of the Hindutva forces has been reflected in the activity of the ABVP. .
Over the past year the ABVP has not raised a single issue of students' concern and its representatives in the JNt,JSU have been .
....
completely inactive. Rather, it has devoted all its energies to creating communal divisions among the student community. Over the past couple of years the ABVP in JNU has indulged in unprecedented acts of violence and lumpenism: taking out a march targeting .
students and faculty members from the minority community following the Godhra incident and in another instance attacking students peacefully protesting against the presence of Ashok Singhal in JNU. .
Yet, despite these attempts at disruption, the student community has carried forward its struggle against communalism s struggles under the JNUSU banner was the starting of a university-run.
and the privatisation and saffronisation of education and has successfully fought the anti-student policies of the NDA government. One of the most significant achievements of the past year'.
mess in Mahi-Mandavi hostels. Though the UGC's ban on the recruitment of non-teaching staff continues, the long and ardous .
struggles of the student communitiy have forced the Administration to accept its responsibility of providing mess facilities. This is a .
remarkable reversal of the UGC's policy of privatising services within universities and a historic achievement of the students of The admission and fee structure of our university which the student community has steadfastly defended and initiatives.
JNU. .
like coaching classes for students from deprived sections have ensured that a large number of students from deprived sections have been able to secure admission to JNU and the SC/ST quota has been fulfilled for the past few years. The struggles of the past year on the demand for financial and academic assistance to students from deprived sections has ensured the regularisation of subject-specific and English remedial classes and provision of appointment of non-JRF research scholars to teac'l these courses. Many Centres of the university had been suffering from acute faculty shortage because of the inordinate delay by the HRD ministry in appointing Visitor's nominees to the selection committees. As a result of the initiati11es taken by the JNUSU the Ministry .
was forced to make the appointments and the process of faculty recruitment has restarted. Student struggles, including a strike, forced the Administration to award a major punishment to Mr. O.K. Tiwari, a faculty .
member who had been found guilty of sexual harassment by GSCASH. and Mr. Daili, a university employee. This has sent the message that no one can escape punishment for sexual harassment by using their position in the university hierarchy. AJso, the .
long-standing demand for granting of statutory status to GSCASH has been met. .
The JNUSU Council of SSS worked together with the SFCs of different Centres to address issues at the School level: 'Another 'florid is Possible' .
A series of seminars, addressed by eminent social scientists and activists, under the theme of.
.
was organised to initiate discussions on issues of contemporary concern. .
Procurement of books in the library has been democratised and students can give requisition for books in the Centre.

offices. .
Materials can now be Xeroxed from the CSSS DSA library on requisition..

.
Cataloguing process has started in CPS SAP library and it will open shortly with Xeroxing facilities. .
Course lists of different centres were compiled and displayed to help students take courses from other tlisciplines.

Xerox shop and canteen were reopened in SSS II.

OUR A GENDA I .
DEMOCRATISATION OF ACADEMIC FUNCTIONING .
Grievance Redressal Committees: In a university like JNU which depends entirely on internal evaluation, institutional .
mechanisms for redressing <Jcademic grievances are essential to guard against the victimisation of students. The present system for this is inadequate, particularly since it places the responsibility of redressal solely on the Administration and faculty members while it is t11ey themselves who are most likely to be the subject of complaints. We demand a complete overhaul of the grievance redres~al mechanism to give it a democratic character and ensure adequate representa!ion of the student .
community. .
Student Faculty Committees (SFCs): Centre-level SFCs composed of faculty members and elected student representatives .
are a unique institution of ~NU. However, at present these cor:nmittees are.. mostly deJuncLWe demaod. that SFCs be rev1ved in .
all the Centres and all academic matters, including the updating of courses, he brought under their purview. .

of OBC reservations, the present discriminatory hostel allotment criteria should be changed so that general category and OBC students are allotted hostel simultaneously.

Recruitment of Teachers: For a long time now, the entire JNU community has been demanding quick recruitment teachers and staff, keeping in mind legally mandated reservations for SC/ST/OBC/PH candidates. However, the JNU administration has been dilly-dallying on this demand. As a result the academics of the university has been suffering. This situation cannot be allowed to continue any longer. Health centre and 24x7 Health Care Facilities: After a long protest and hunger strike, the JNU administration had procured a proper 24x7 ambulance. However, the health facilities .
.
facilities in JNU have to be upgraded on a priority basis with provisions of basic diagnostic facilities, anti-venom injections and other services. JNU should also make arrangements with adjacent hospitals and nursing homes to provide facilities to JNU students at concessional rates. Internet access: Wi-fi internet access in the hostels should be provided. Right now, students are forced to arrange for their own internet connections, and in many cases this is creating a variety of problems. Transport facilities: The frequency of the DTC buses in JNU (615) should be increased. Feeder buses to the nearest Metro station, and bus facilities connecting important libraries in the city should be provided as was prevalent in JNU. A Cultural centre and Auditorium for students activities must be built and existing premises like KC OAT and PSR must be renovated. The huge fee of the newly constructed Convention Centre must be reduced to make it easily affordable to the students as well. Sports facilities in the campus also needs to engaged with and improved. Reforestation and Revitalization of the Environment Task Force: The fragile bio-diversity of JNU has been severely stressed by the construction work and expansion happening in JNU. Therefore, there is an urgent need to revitalize the ETF and embark on a university-wide reforestation scheme so that the various species (like the nilgai) living in JNU are not endangered. .

Reclaim the campus..
Fight against corporatisation and privatisation of education.
and the shrinking democratic space in campus and out. .
.
The policies of liberalisation, privatisation and globalisation have crept into universities in the form of corporate.
funding of the c.1mpus spaces be it in education or infrastructure. Increasingly, learning is taking a back seat and.
university is becoming investor friendly to cater to the needs of the market. More and more academic programmes.
on the campus are being funded by the likes of Ford Foundation. The fact is, there is an ever-increasing attack onstudents through increasing cost of education (including the cost of living in the campus), and orienting academics.
.
towards private, international capital, rather than the need of of students and society at large. This is happening in.
tandem with the new economic policies, implemented by successive governments -Congress, NDA, UPA and.
their allies. In its policy docutnents the Indian state is positing education as a commodity of merit, available to a.
few, the resultant knowledge to be sold to the highest bidder. Natura.lly, even primary education is denied to a vast.
population. Out of the total enrollment in primary education, only 6% manage ro get into higher education. Of.
course, even this 6% is a huge market taking into consideration the population density of a country like India. Andthe race is on ro capture rhis higher education market..
It is unfortunate that this gross abdication of the responsibilty of the State from higher education and the.
resultant entry of international funding agencies have been accepted uncritically in this campus. The Global Studies.
Programme in the CSSS/SSS is a startling example of this growing insensitivity to the legitimisation of corporate.
funding in campus programmes. While the university authorities are clever enough to project .it as only aprogramn1e of exchange between two German universities and JNU it is never declared to the student communitythat this progratru11e is also promoted by such international management consultancy groups like McKinsey andthe corporate giants like BM\X/. Neither of these organisations have ever been accussed of being pro-people, orprioritising the interest of people or society over profits. McKinsey is one of the global 'experts' in implementingthe policies of globalisarion and liberalisation. In India, they are advis.ing the Maharashrra government as well as theLeft (sic!) Front government in West Bengal on economic and social policies. (One of their more visible successes is ~ the large-scale displacen1ent and mass destitution through slum demolition in the name of city beautification.) The.
studied silence and inrransparency of the JNU authorities about these funders and their practices speaks volumesabout the shrinking democratic space in our campus.Another aspect of corporatisation and privatisation of education here is the replication of disciplines,provided it it permits the unhindered entry of co rporate capital. So when a Centre for Political Studies is alreadythere we also have a Centre for Law and Governance funded by Ford which deals with topics which can very well.
come under the purview of the forn'ler. Similarly we have a Centre for International Trade and Development in SISfunded by Ford while we also have Centre for Economic Studies & Planning. It is not surprising that these parellelcentres and programmes also have a different (in other words, exorbitant) fee structures..
In a clever sleight of hand, one onslaught is used to justify another. Tthe entry of corporate funding islegitinused by the logic of subsidy cuts by the State in higher education. Scholarships are getting fewer and more.
inaccessible for most students. Even .
the scholarships meant for students from weaker, underprivilegedbackgorounds are not being withdrawn. More and more students enrolling for research are forced to be part of the.
projects run by their faculty. Most of these projects are funded by donor agencies like Ford, Rockefeller etc..
Students have little choice in deciding the areas of research. Most of the students end up doing research, whichmeets the needs of the project undertaken by the faculty. Research gets reduced to projects. Learning gets reducedto collection of data. D ata chat is later utilised elsewhere, at the behest of corporate and imperialist interests, to be.
recycled as conceptual tools or policy initiatives. The university is becornic an academic sweatshop..
surprisingly, when one's academic life depends on consenting to these corporate demands, critical thinking or .
N otdissent becomes a very risky proposition. We are taught to self-censor, to assimilate globallsation and liberalisationin our classrooms..
The JNU administration last year decided that the ,rule enacted by the University in 1972 preventing the.
faculty from raking honorarium in the projects they head should be removed. At the outset it looks very i.nnocous. .
