The groups could be ethnic, racial, class and ideological. Most of the conflicts escalate because of inequality, power and its dynamics in a relationship are fundamental to any approach to working with conflict. Basically, imbalance and misuse of power create conflict within a society and the state. Conflict between minority groups and government can be shown as simple, however, it would be a critical problem in the long run. The best way to solve the problem is conflict transformation before its turning to the violent act. The transformation of the inequality within a state or society can be difficult task, however conflict analysis and peace building process can take some action for the conflict resolution. In Nepalese context, first, the government has to have dialogue with their people; dialogue has huge power in conflict transformation. When you sit together, you can have human interaction with serious feelings, and you also have to negotiate with some give and take. Second, all parties should have valid perspective and legitimate demand for power. Which means, you should create win-win situation, where no one feels as a looser. The inequality and power disparity is mutual problem in Nepal, so you should create an environment, where all parties feel mutual responsibility. Based on Burton's idea that conflict analysis and resolution can help to analyze the situation and link with the Basic Human Need Theory…

The Madrasas in India remained religion centric. Subjects related to Islam dominated its curriculum in India ever since its origin. Madrasa represent the Muslim proletariat, for whom religion is the shortest and surest road to salvation; hence Madrasas are the means. As an analyst aptly puts it, “the unemployed and underemployed men of Islam produced by these Madrasas were by and large forced to become self proclaimed holy warriors of their faith”. Bereft of growth opportunities, that so called ‘jehadis’ or holy warriors are a product of circumstances rather than choice. Islam centric teaching of Madrasas is not compatible with the contemporary job market. Lack of job opportunities plunges then into economic stagnation. Frustrated, many youth take up cudgels against the state and the society in the name of jehad. Further, 90.9% students go to Madrasas because their parents want to become an Iman or a…
There is a need of mutual love and peace in the society. Only when the land is peaceful, there will be advancement in the field of education. It is time for Northeast India to put down their weapons and wear humanity. The government of India should also take these problems seriously and take necessary actions for the upliftment of the people of this region. Northeast people should not be neglected in their own state as well as in the Capital city like New Delhi. The cultural diversities should be respected. In such situation, common men always become the victim. At last what will people gain through all those bloodshed?…
While the government have made efforts to eliminate caste discrimination, the measures will be ineffective if the Indian populace remains to stick to their traditional roots and practice superiority when in a caste of high rank. For caste discrimination to stop in the future, the younger generations need to learn to respect people from lower castes. Furthermore, in order for the justice system facilitate the elimination of caste discrimination and abuse, the police officers have to stop discriminating to the minority ethnic groups first. Only then, the justice system will not collapse and this will help spread the message that caste discrimination is…

There would be no discrimination on the basis of sex, caste, religion, class, etc. All people would equal rights and facilities.…
When our country achieved independence, a large section of the society was leading a miserable life. They had been exploited for ages and the false beliefs in the society at that time further worsened their condition. The government of that day introduced the concept of reservations so that there would be equal progress of all sections of the society. Over the years, the condition of the people of reserved categories has improved at a fast rate while that of the middle class, general or open category people has remained more or less the same. After nearly 60 years of independence now, general category people have started to feel that they are being subjugated and that the odds have been stacked against them. At a time like this, the government’s decision to bring out legislation to implement a 27% quota for OBCs adds further fuel to the fire.…

The districts of Chattisgarh, known as the Naxal-affected belts, are areas where the scheduled tribes and castes make up more than 60 per cent of the population. Poverty is endemic in this region. The government is carrying out two types of development. The first is based on industries, mining and commercialization, and the second is linked with the National Rural Employment Guarantee Act, the mid-day meal scheme and primary education. As far as the Naxal problem is concerned, the policy is to use ‘maximum force’. Which of these development models and policies is working is a critical question for the future of these states and their people.…
The 93rd amendment and the recent declaration of the government for reservation in institutions of higher education has once again stirred the anger of the youth in general all over the country. The moral ground in favour of reservations still holds good. What is needed is to formulate a well-balanced policy of reservation, which opens equal doors of opportunity to all. Development of one section of the society should not be at the cost of the other section. Development of the society can be possible only if all the sections of the society are given equal opportunities. Opportunity for development should be judiciously distributed among all the…
