Podcasts about section377

What does a person look like? And what does our Constitution have to say about personhood and sexuality? Personhood legally means a rights-bearing body. But not all bodies have rights unless the law recognizes them as persons. This episode of The Longest Constitution looks into the colonial criminalization and marginalization of the transgender community, and the journey to recognizing their fundamental rights, in the historic NALSA vs. Union of India judgment, 2004. - ( https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/no-law-which-prohibits-sex-change-operation-bombay-high-court-says-in-bidhan-barua-case-481081 )- ( https://translaw.clpr.org.in/wp-content/uploads/2018/09/Nalsa.pdf )“5 Questions: Tiruchi Siva, man behind Rights of Transgender Persons Bill” - ( https://indianexpress.com/article/india/india-others/5-questions-tiruchi-siva-man-behind-rights-of-transgender-persons-bill/ )You can follow Priya on social media:Instagram: ( https://www.instagram.com/naik.priya/ )Twitter: ( https://twitter.com/fundamentallyp )Linkedin: ( https://www.linkedin.com/in/priya-mirza-73666310/ )You can listen to this show and other awesome shows on the IVM Podcasts app on Android: https://ivm.today/android or iOS: https://ivm.today/ios, or any other podcast app.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The answer is: quite not! The word queer or sexual orientation does not exist in the constitution. Does that mean the constitution doesn't see the queer? And even though Section 377 of the IPC (1860), which criminalized sodomy convicted very few people, does it mean that sexual minorities should be discriminated against? The Constitution grants everyone equality, queer or straight. And everywhere, at home or the streets. Listen in! To the struggle for sexual autonomy and against moral policing in this episode of The Longest Constitution.

Amit talks about the way in which reporters covered the event, while Rohan weighs in about media's need to recreate the situation and things that should have been avoided. Vakasha says that being inside the courtroom on the day of judgement, hearing the judges and their unique responses, was an amazing and emotional experience. The panel also talks about the need to strike a balance between privacy and the need for media personnel, especially TV news, to capture the moment.Cherry also asks Vakasha about the problems with courtroom-related reportage in the absence of legal expertise among those covering the beat. “It becomes challenging as it creates new pressure, creates new confusion over what's going on,” Vakasha says.Pointing out what the media missed, Cherry says stories on intersectionality of sexuality, caste, disability, mental health, gender identity and queer movement beyond 377 were given a miss.Amit points out that Hardik Patel's hunger strike was still being under-reported. The national media has not been doing justice to this news, he says. [Patel has now ended his hunger strike].Amit and Vakasha also weigh in on media's failure to cover the farmers' march in New Delhi. Amit says, “These people have been failed by the government and nobody cares.”The panel also discusses the violence that broke out at Delhi University's Zakir Husain College. This, and more.

He also points out the importance of the three hours that elapsed between the incident and the time taken to reach the Ramgarh CHC.Cherry adds, “What I found missing from the larger media narrative was that the two accused were moving around with the policemen.” Amit weighs in to add that the media's narrative changed on July 22 -- the blame shifted from the gau rakshaks to gau rakshaks and the police.Rest of the panel weighs in too. Anoo adds that she didn't feel the issue had been obfuscated in the English print and online media, while Rahul emphasises the need for minutely questioning the police's version of events.Amit expresses his concerns over the disturbing parallels that exist between Akbar's case and Pehlu Khan's case.Subsequently, the panel discusses media's coverage of #Section377. Anoo weighs in on the problems that exist across Indian news organisations and stresses upon the need for more inclusive newsrooms.Rohin concurs with Anoo, and points out that sometimes a callous attitude is adopted by the media in its reportage on LGBTQ issues.Speaking on the issue, Rahul points out the clear division that still exists between Hindi and English media's reportage of the issues related to Section 377. Nevertheless, he says, “things have gotten better”. The panel also discusses if reporters are equipped to handle sensitive conversations.The gang also discusses the state of health journalism in India. Anoo details the challenges faced by health reporters in India, with people still having regressive attitudes and at times, treating it as an extension of 'Lifestyle and Wellness' reporting.Rohin points out the hazards of what he calls “baba ji ki booti" reporting, which is reportage done at the cost of important issues like the death of children in Bihar from Japanese encephalitis.The panel also discusses how Muzaffarnagar case was under-reported.

This week’s Reporters Without Orders features our host Cherry Agarwal, our guest, lawyer-turned-journalist Vakasha Sachdev from The Quint, along with Rohin Verma and Amit Bhardwaj. The discussion starts with media’s coverage of Supreme Court’s landmark verdict -- decriminalisation of Section 377. Amit talks about the way in which reporters covered the event, while Rohan weighs in about media’s need to recreate the situation and things that should have been avoided. Vakasha says that being inside the courtroom on the day of judgement, hearing the judges and their unique responses, was an amazing and emotional experience. The panel also talks about the need to strike a balance between privacy and the need for media personnel, especially TV news, to capture the moment.Cherry also asks Vakasha about the problems with courtroom-related reportage in the absence of legal expertise among those covering the beat. “It becomes challenging as it creates new pressure, creates new confusion over what’s going on,” Vakasha says.Pointing out what the media missed, Cherry says stories on intersectionality of sexuality, caste, disability, mental health, gender identity and queer movement beyond 377 were given a miss. Amit points out that Hardik Patel’s hunger strike was still being under-reported. The national media has not been doing justice to this news, he says. [Patel has now ended his hunger strike]. Amit and Vakasha also weigh in on media’s failure to cover the farmers’ march in New Delhi. Amit says, “These people have been failed by the government and nobody cares.” The panel also discusses the violence that broke out at Delhi University’s Zakir Husain College. This, and more.

He also points out the importance of the three hours that elapsed between the incident and the time taken to reach the Ramgarh CHC.Cherry adds, “What I found missing from the larger media narrative was that the two accused were moving around with the policemen.” Amit weighs in to add that the media's narrative changed on July 22 -- the blame shifted from the gau rakshaks to gau rakshaks and the police.Rest of the panel weighs in too.
