Cover Story: No Freedom Struggle, This
The Cover Story includes:
The Final Solution by Amit Sengupta in Delhi
It's celebration time. They did it. Give them the credit. All we want now are the Narendra Modi masks
GROUND ZERO REDUX by Akash Bisht/Sadiq Naqvi in Delhi
You have seen it all on non-stop television. You have read it all in the papers. Now, we bring to you on-the-spot reportage from the ground. Rediscover Anna's experiments with truth. Diary of a 'wave' that swept India. Or, did it, really?
After Lab Test, the Coup! by Sanjay Kapoor in Delhi
Backed by the Sangh Parivar and corporates, riding on popular angst against scams, the Anna campaign was a sinister plot to destablise Indian democracy
Search your Soul by Ratna Raman in Delhi
For each one of them and for each one of us, this is not about Irom Sharmila or Salwa Judum, or the thousands who don't get one square meal a day
Kafkaesque No Jan in this Lok by Rahul Govind in Delhi
The Jan Lokpal Bill centralises power. It reads like a sheaf from a dystopian novel or the pages of Stalinist credo. It is so lacking in imagination that it merely scavenges on existing institutional and legal structures
Fast-Unto-Death by Chaman Lal in Port of Spain (Trinidad)
Unlike in current times, long, protracted hunger strikes by revolutionary freedom fighters Bhagat Singh and Jatin Das were imbued with a strikingly different ideology, vision and strength of character

Justice AP Shah shares his views on the Lokpal debate

The magazine also includes:
A twist in tourism's tale by Akash Bisht in Kanha
With a new set of guidelines, MoEF seeks to involve locals in ecotourism, and rein in rampant real estate expansion that threatens tiger habitats
'Conservation shouldn't be a drag on development'
NTCA Member-Secretary Rajesh Gopal speaks exclusively to Hardnews on various facets of tiger conservation and its uneasy dialectic with development
'How do cheergirls promote the cause of cricket?' by Akash Bisht in Delhi
How is cash-rich BCCI, which hosts IPL involving huge financial stakes, a charitable outfit? So why is it getting tax exemption?
So, when's the next IPL? By Sandeep Kumar in Delhi
Driven by insatiable greed, BCCI and Indian cricket deserve every humiliating drubbing they got in England
Not Skin Deep by Kiran Nazish in Karachi
India appreciates good news coming from Pakistan. A Birkin is better than a ballistic missile
Temptations by Ratna Raman in Paris
What magic and mystery the word chocolate evokes, bringing in its wake a long string of luxurious, languorous, delicious associations
Road to Dhaka
With many new ideas on the table, the prime minister's forthcoming Bangladesh visit may help tide over a long period of mutual suspicion and lead to a win-win situation for both countries
Among many others.
