Abstract

The following invited opinion piece, by three Anglo-Indian Studies scholars, appeared on 17 December 2019 in The Hindu, in response to the Government’s move the previous month to revoke reservations for Anglo-Indian MPs and MLAs. It is republished here with permission from Srinivasan Ramani, Deputy National Editor of The Hindu, granted on 8 November 2024. The authors’ original title was “Anglo-Indian Reserved Seats Still Very Much Needed” but The Hindu gave it the headline below. It may still be read online at: https://www.thehindu.com/opinion/op-ed/reservations-need-to-continue-for-anglo-indians/article30323462.ece
