Why do interstate water disputes emerge and recur? Srinivas Chokkakula CESS Monograph 45 | RULNR Monograph 24 This monograph uses historical analysis of the Krishna river water dispute to make the following central argument: interstate water disputes in India are the result of a set of legal ambiguities, political antagonisms, as well as physical and power asymmetries. This renders such places as perennial sites of disputation. In India’s multiparty federal democracy context, it translates into a ‘nexus’ between politics of water and mainstream democratic politics, with the disputes becoming popular avenues for political mobilisation. > Read More Handbook on Legal and Administrative Remedies for Community Level Environment Justice Practitioners (V2) CPR-Namati Environmental Justice Team Report | 2017 This handbook is an attempt to present scenarios where community level environmental justice practitioners can apply and use law to work with affected communities and seek desired remedies through an administrative route. Each scenario presents a problem type, what the complaints could be and then goes on to suggest some legal clauses through which a remedy can be pursued. It draws from several cases currently being pursued by enviro legal coordinators associated with the Centre for Policy Research (CPR)-Namati Environmental Justice Program. It also draws from the resolutions being pursued by implementing partners like Janabhivyakti (Chhattisgarh) and Keonjhar Integrated Rural Development and Training Institute (KIRDTI) (Odisha). > Read More Towards a New Research and Policy Paradigm: An Analysis of the Sanitation Situation in Large Dense Villages Shubhagato Dasgupta, Shamindra Roy, Aditya Bhol, and Deepti Raj Report | 2017 This research explores the secondary data on sanitation infrastructure in large and dense villages in India from three census datasets. The analysis attempts to comprehend the preference for improved on-site sanitation facilities in selected villages, which were also found to be proximate to urban areas and national highways. The findings of the research highlight statewise variations in large and dense villages ,which account for sizeable percentages of respective state population and depict a, generally, high preference for septic tanks and improved pits. The results of the study substantiate the need for a primary survey to instruct policy making adequately on the indispensability of decentralised strategies to improve the sanitation value chain. > Read More Paralegals for Environmental Justice (Version 2.0) CPR-Namati Environmental Justice Team Legal Guide | 2017 CPR-Namati’s Practice Guide for Environment Justice Paralegals provides a methodology for community mobilisers, activists and citizens groups to shift their attention from stating the problem to getting grievances addressed by environmental institutions.
