Precarious Transitions: Mobility and Citizenship in a Rising Power
Over the summer of 2020, millions of migrants streamed out of Indian cities in the wake of the ill-planned lockdown announced by Prime Minister Narendra Modi on 24 March 2020. The most conservative estimates suggest 30 million internal migrants in India (Ministry of Finance, Government of India 2018: 267). More realistic estimates peg the numbers at 140 million (Rajan et al 2020). If even half the most conservative figures are trekking back home, we are likely to be witness to the forced migration of at least 15 million people criss-crossing the country to get back to their homes. These numbers most likely dwarf the migrations wrought by the partition, estimated between 10 and 12 million people. At a time, millions have been cut adrift by the Indian state, we need to urgently reflect on what it means to be a citizen.

Mira Bhayandar: Youngsters come to the rescue of crumbling Dharavi Fort in Uttan
FPJ Correspondent
Stung by the apathy of the Archaeological Survey of India and the civic authorities towards the ill-maintained state of the historic Dharavi Fort built by the brave warrior Chimaji Appa during the 17th century at Dongri village in Uttan near Bhayandar, a group of young heritage lovers under the aegis of Yuva Pratishtan have been dutifully visiting the fort to conduct shram daan (voluntary service) for the past four years.
Their dedication has emerged as a ray of hope for the Dharavi Fort and crumbling walls of other heritage structures in the state which are the legacy of great warriors. While the authorities are still to wake up from their slumber, apathy and irresponsible behaviour shown by visitors is also visible in the entire fort area.
