Paperback. Condition: New. While sizable literature exists on the themes, issues and voices that constitute resistance in historical Indian documentary cinema, less is known about contemporary modes of resistance in Indian documentary. This volume identifies languages and practices of resistance constructed by Indian documentary practitioners located in contemporary global and national contexts organised by majoritarian political discourse, rising social inequalities, tightening media regulatory mechanisms and variable access to digital technologies. Extending its analytical lens beyond textual politics, the volume offers an original conceptualisation of how we identify, mobilise, and recuperate acts of resistance as both represented in documentary and those represented by the organisation of documentary practice e.g., documentary exhibition, curation, education, and criticism. Combining scholarly essays and practitioner writing, the volume offers a timely reconsideration of how central debates and issues of power and representation in documentary may be studied as objects of analysis and as subjective accounts of individual experience, decisions, and actions relating to documentary aesthetics and practice.

Rama's Saga is India's most pervasive and enduring instrument of acculturation. 14. Rama's references in Buddhist texts are, by and large, based on Valmiki's Ramayana. 15. Rama is the embodiment of Dharma. Appendices. Index. Ayodhya: Beyond Adduced Evidence is a sequel to the author's earlier book Ayodhya Revisited. It highlights how the Rama Janma Bhumi at Ayodhya is an essential and integral part of Hinduism. On the basis of unimpeachable evidence it establishes the exact location of the Rama Janma Bhumi. It proves beyond any shade of doubt that a Rama temple built in the 12th century existed on the disputed site and that was demolished by Fedai Khan, the Governor of Aurangzeb in 1660 A.D. Based on the law laid down in scriptures it demonstrates that the bhumi of the temple having a consecrated idol gets the status of a deity. From the in-depth analysis of scriptures and inscriptions it has been concluded that a temple converted into a mosque can be legitimately restored to its original character of a temple. The question of the title of the disputed land has been discussed at length both in historical and legal perspectives and it has been found that the title vests in both the Rama Janma Bhumi and numerous deities who reside there forever. But it was unlawfully grabbed by the British authorities in 1858 and that wrong remains unrectified till today. The historical fact that many Mughal monarchs, Awadh Nawabs and Muslim nobles liberally granted land at Ayodhya for the construction of temples and mutts to the Bairagi sadhus has been highlighted in the book. So far the title of the mosque is concerned, it is found that almost all evidences claimed in favour of the mosque are fake and fabricated. Moreover, whatever the title it had, that extinguished in 1858 after Lord Canning confiscated the disputed land. Thereafter, the Muslims had the permissive possession of a part of the mosque for offering nemaz. Besides, the gun of the claim of adverse possession is fired against a wrong target as it has been directed against the Hindus; whereas the ownership of the land lies with the Government. The author has shown the striking similarities and stark contrasts in the situations of Somanatha and Ayodhya, and has deeply probed as to why Somanatha succeeded, whereas solution is still eluding Ayodhya. It has been proved that Rama's worship has continued for more than 2000 years and his saga is India's most pervasive and enduring instrument of acculturation. Besides, it has been shown in the book that Rama has been regarded as the embodiment of Dharma since Valmiki wrote the Ramayana. The book is indispensable for any student, scholar and lawyer interested in knowing the history of and the title to the disputed land at Ayodhya. (jacket).
