  • G20 countries including India are fuelling modern slavery, says new report

    50 million people are living in conditions of modern slavery — a 25% rise over the last five years, says a new report. According to it, the Group of 20 nations are contributing to this increase, as their trade operations and global supply chains allow for human rights abuses. Among the G20 nations, India tops the list with 11 million people working as forced labourers, followed by China, Russia, Indonesia, Turkey and the U.S.

    Rights group Walk Free Foundation on May 24 released the Global Slavery Index 2023, an assessment of modern slavery conditions in 160 countries. The index uses data released by the International Labour Organisation (ILO), Walk Free, and the International Organisation for Migration (IOM) last year to illustrate how “modern slavery is hidden in plain sight”. The data gains significance as India holds the G20 presidency this year, with a focus on sustainable development and climate change mitigation.

    Estimates show that 50 million people were living in conditions of modern slavery on any given day in 2021. While there is no singular internationally recognised definition of modern slavery, it includes practices of forced labour, forced marriage, debt bondage, commercial sexual exploitation, human trafficking, slavery-like practices, and the sale and exploitation of children — any situation where threats, violence, coercion and deception prevent a person from refusing or leaving.

    The practice has become more prevalent over the last five years, the report shows, as climate change, armed conflict, weak governance and health emergencies like COVID-19 worked to remove a person’s freedom. G20 nations in particular account for more than half of all people living in modern slavery: imports worth $468 billion of at-risk products, including electronics, textiles, palm oil and solar panels, have been shipped from countries with weak worker protection, thus worsening forced labour conditions.

    Global supply chains

    The Australia-based organisation measured slavery conditions using interviews of survivors collected through nationally representative household surveys of 75 countries (conducted between 2017 and 2021), and assessed national-level vulnerability. Different variables defined a nation’s vulnerability: such as political instability, inequality, lack of basic needs, criminal justice mechanisms, internal conflicts and displacement.

    While world leaders in 2015 adopted a goal to end modern slavery, forced labour and human trafficking by 2030, “the significant increase in the number of people living in modern slavery and stagnating government action highlight that this goal is even further from being achieved”, the report said. The increase of 10 million people is due to compounding crises — “more complex armed conflicts, widespread environmental degradation, assaults on democracy in many countries, a global rollback of women’s rights and the economic and social impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic”. Forced labour exists in all countries and is “deeply connected to demand from higher-income countries”.

    What is interesting, says Sandeep Chachra, executive director of ActionAid India, is the “disaggregated data from G20 countries”, highlighting not only the prevalence of forced labour in these regions, but also its manifestations across each point in the global supply chain.

    Take the textiles industry, where reports describe conditions of forced and unpaid work, health and safety risks, poor wages, lack of benefits (such as maternity leave) and debt bondage. The “Sumangali” scheme in Tamil Nadu, for instance, was previously criticised for trapping women and girls from marginalised locations into working in exploitative conditions in spinning mills. “Today G20 countries are collectively importing $148 billion worth of apparel goods and $13 billion worth of textiles at risk of being produced by forced labour every year,” the report notes.

    Similarly, “at risk” products include gold, electronics, palm oil and solar panel — where the motivation to reduce costs and meet global demand creates conditions of “forced labour, trafficking, and the worst forms of child labour”.

    “It is important to recognise that the situations of modern slavery are by no means transient – lasting years, and in cases of forced marriage, a life sentence. This… is important from the point of bringing this into the global policy and action discourse, including at the G20 table,” says Mr. Chachra. He adds that India has stated an “ambition” to accelerate integration of MSMEs in global trade, promote labour rights and secure labour welfare, among other objectives, and as such can work to leverage its status.

    “While [India and China] have seen immense growth, which has seen increase in manufacturing and exports from these two countries, both of them also constitute a substantial market for western companies and corporations. The two countries can use this leverage in trade negotiations and ensure that companies do not have dual standards of rights for workers in the opposite end of the supply chains,” Mr. Chachra says. “To fight modern slavery practices, we need south-south cooperation which can end the race to the bottom of labour rights for attracting foreign investments.” This involves more transparency in value chains, social security for workers at all stages, and holding corporations accountable in multilateral and bilateral free trade agreements.

    Forced labour has colonial footprints which need not only erasure for future but also just reparations for the damages of the past.”Sandeep Chachra,Execute Director, ActionAid India

    The Walk Free report recommends implementing stronger measures and legislations that prevent governments and business from sourcing goods and services linked to modern slavery. Other suggestions include embedding anti-slavery measures in climate change sustainability plans, providing primary and secondary education to children and tightening regulations around forced and child marriage.

    India’s stance on modern slavery

    India passed the Bonded Labour Abolition Act of 1976 that prohibits the practice of bonded and forced labour, and identifies responsibilities of State Governments to form vigilance committees. The Act was amended in 1985 to include contract and migrant workers. India also has a Central scheme for Rehabilitation of Bonded Labour, one part of which includes providing financial assistance to the rescued individual (the 2016 amendment increased the amount of funds).

    The Supreme Court has previously ruled that non-payment of minimum wages amounts to “forced labour” under Article 23 of the Constitution.

    However, activists have noted problems with implementation of laws due to corruption, apathy, legal loopholes and lack of political will. The 1976 Act, for instance, is used to criminalise offenders but is “neither the best way to address exploitation nor to achieve SDG 8.7 [ending forced labour and modern slavery] as it often ends up hurting the very poor and vulnerable sections of society that it is meant to protect”, a collective of 50 people wrote in a 2017 letter to the government. Some have also expressed concern that India’s new Labour Codes (which are yet to be implemented) may give “legal sanction” to forced labour by extending work hours and diluting social security of people working in the organised and unorganised sector.

    There is also a need to property identify and ennumerate people stuck in modern slavery conditions. States like Tamil Nadu have initiated plans to conduct a survey; India’s last national survey of bonded labour was done in mid-90s.

    Moreover, rehabilitation of bonded labourers is marred with documentation challenges. The financial aid offered is also largely inadequate ₹30,000, and doesn’t touch upon providing education or job security. Mr. Chachra also notes financial aid is delayed or never started — because the offender needs to be legally convicted for rehabilitation to take effect. “We need to de-link prosecution of those accused of enforcing forced labour from the process of rehabilitation.”

    Experts say rehabilitation should take precedence as climate crisis is pushing millions of people into precarious situations by making resources scarce, increasing poverty and restricting access to health and education. Growing evidence shows indigenous communities and those engaged in fishing and agriculture in States like Odisha and West Bengal have become victims of debt bondage, human trafficking and mass displacement — and thus deserve adequate compensation.

    Strong legislations and accountability of G20 nations must be balanced with empowering the “protagonists of vulnerable communities” who live and work in precarity, says Mr. Chachra. The road to preventing forced labour goes through “rights of access to public goods which include food, shelter, education and health and the right to access to global commons and decent work”.

  • Stuntwoman Michelle Lee: John Wick wouldn’t fight the way he did without the stunt team

    “I think Hollywood could take notice of the stunt community more,” says actor and professional stuntwoman, Michelle Lee, who plays the role of an assassin in the Brad Pitt and Joey King-starring Bullet Train, which is all set to be aired on &flix this weekend.

    Talking about the role, the 44-year-old actor, on a video call from California where she is based, says that it is a “super fun role, small but cool. I play a nurse who takes on an assassin.” In many ways, it is similar to the sort of characters she has always essayed, whether as Ada Wong in Resident Evil 6, Mileena in the second season of Mortal Kombat or as Corinne Wan in Marvel’s Venom, roles that employ her stunt and martial art background to the fullest.

    In this interview, she talks about the genesis of her stunt career, how Hollywood is more accepting of actors of colour and why stunt actors should be given a slot in the Academy Awards.

    You were born and grew up in California. Can you talk a little about how the culture of the place you grew up in played into your own interest in martial arts and acting?

    I was born in Long Beach and grew up in South Bay, Torrance area. Growing up in LA, meant you had a lot of friends who were actors. As a kid, I got headshots because all my other friends had them and they all auditioned. That was a thing you do in LA; it was very common. I was extremely shy so my mum put me in acting classes. I really fell in love with the freedom – to have fun, express yourself, not have any kind of rules, just kind of play. That is where I discovered acting and fell in love with it as a kid. It was at the back of my head for years.

    My next love was martial arts; I discovered it while watching a Wushu performance. The Beijing Wushu team came to Oakland or St Francisco, I don’t remember now. I watched a performance and I was like ‘Oh my god, what is this? I must learn it.’ When I went to LA to pursue acting, martial arts fell into the work since you bring something to the table. But of course, there were so many other things I had to learn.

    How much did your Taiwanese heritage impede acting roles when you started out? Hollywood after all had far fewer roles for people of colour. Has this changed, both personally and at an industry level?

    Oh, definitely. I have seen a huge change both in the number of people of colour and the type of roles for people of colour. It used to be very surface; one line, and you have nothing to do with the story! There is (today) more background and story behind them.

    There is always room to grow. If you think about it, how many shows have an all-Asian cast? Very few in the last 20 years. Things like that can definitely improve;with everyone else’s support in writing good content, finding talented performers and taking a chance on performers of colour.

    Is Hollywood more cognizant of the impact of stunt people today? Has SWAMP (Stuntwomen’s Association of Motion Pictures) changed the narrative in any way?

    Stunts are such an integral part of a film. Things could not be shot the way they are without it; you couldn’t have the action in Marvel without them, and John Wick wouldn’t fight the way he did without the stunt team. There is definitely room to be recognised more. The biggest thing we are fighting for is a slot in the Academy Awards. There are so many categories in the Academy Awards. I don’t understand why stunts wouldn’t have a small part in that. It is such a big contributor to film in general. I definitely think there is room to acknowledge that a lot more.

    SWAMP has a special place in my heart. They are the first women stunt group to come together and say, ‘Hey we are women, there are not a lot of us. Let us support each other.’ I feel so lucky to be a part of this group. They are all professionals with years of experience behind them and they are extremely talented with a great knowledge of the industry. I think things like this and having other people (who are not from the stunt industry) pushing for us and recognising us will help.

    What has the journey been from stuntwoman to actor? Can you tell me a little about this?

    I started with acting and had headshots when I was six. So, I feel like an actor more. Stunts really gave me the opportunity to work a lot in the industry at a time when Asians weren’t very cast-able; I am very fortunate and appreciate stunts for that. The journey back to acting feels natural. It is what I started out doing. Now I have the combination of the two. When you get other skills on the job, it only makes your job better.

    What is next up for you?

    I’m part of the Star Wars series that is coming out soon. I don’t know how much I can talk about it. But I can say, it was magical to shoot, a joy to witness first-hand.

    Bullet Train will be telecast on Sunday, 4th June at 12 pm and 9 pm on &flix.

  • How the old found sanctuary and the new blossomed under CSK umbrella

    “Football is a simple game: 22 men chase a ball for 90 minutes and at the end, the Germans always win,” English footballer Gary Lineker once said. Indian Premier League cricket and Chennai Super Kings come very close.

    Injuries, bad form, rotten luck… nothing seemingly dims the chances of M.S. Dhoni & Co. And unlike the straightjacketed Germans of yore clothed in black and white, the men from Chennai do it with panache and more than a dash of resplendent yellow.

    The five-wicket triumph in the final over Gujarat Titans at the Narendra Modi Stadium in the wee hours of Tuesday best embodied this.

    After a bad bowling and fielding performance, CSK seemed down and out as GT raked up a record 214-run total. And with just 22 needed from 15 balls to chase down the rain-shortened 171-run target (15 overs), CSK saw Mohammed Shami and Mohit bowl 13 consecutive balls without conceding a boundary.

    However, ‘Rockstar’ Ravindra Jadeja clubbed Mohit Sharma for a six and four off the last two balls to bring home a fifth IPL title.

    Unfamiliar territory

    While the result wasn’t a surprise, the season was unlike any for CSK. It first had to banish the painful memories from last year when it finished ninth; Jadeja had to be successfully re-integrated after the captaincy fiasco in 2022 and there were injuries galore, including to its top players in Ben Stokes, Deepak Chahar and even Dhoni. And in a departure from the past, it lost three of its seven games at fortress Chepauk.

    Yet, CSK devised a way, learning from the tough lessons at home and turning itself into a better-rounded side on the road. Under the umbrella leadership of Dhoni and head coach Stephen Fleming – in place since 2009 – the old hands found sanctuary while the new ones blossomed.

    If Jadeja returned reinvigorated, Chahar was made to feel important and given the confidence to play even at “80%”. Devon Conway and Ruturaj Gaikwad rampaged attacks at the top; Shivam Dube evolved into a reliable power-hitter; Tushar Deshpande, who had played just seven IPL matches, played 16 this edition and Matheesha Pathirana was plucked out of thin air, literally.

    Giving oxygen

    The way CSK brought Ajinkya Rahane back to life is a great example of top-notch man-management. When the game had seemingly moved past him, the former India skipper played 14 matches, scoring 326 runs at a strike-rate of 172.49, including a crucial 13-ball 27 in the final.

    “We got rid of the tag of him being the guy whom you bat around,” said Fleming. “That had hung over his head a bit too much. He wasn’t in our initial thoughts, but the win against Mumbai was one of our defining wins (by seven wkts) and he was the catalyst behind that (27-ball 61). From there, he was unwavering and positive.”

    The victorious season has also helped CSK identify a winning core. Ambati Rayudu, who in his last game for CSK played a neat cameo (19, 8b), will be sorely missed and the club will eventually have to prepare for Dhoni’s retirement. But with a title in the bag, CSK will look ahead with confidence.

    “Winning one year and then losing your team is quite an emotional experience,” Fleming said, reminiscing the 2021 triumph and the low point of 2022. “Last year we took a bit of time, just introducing players the CSK way and getting them accustomed to the IPL. Emotionally we were a bit low. [But] this time we had energy around.

    “It is very hard to have back-to-back [success]. What you can hope to do is maximise when you have the squad, because in a year’s time, it may all change. It is something we have been in the thereabouts [of], and something that Gujarat [Titans] have also done.”

  • As SC Stays Ban On ‘The Kerala Story’ In Bengal, TMC Says Won’t Be Responsible For Tensions

    New Delhi: Political slugfest started in West Bengal soon after the Supreme Court on Thursday lifted the ban on screening of `The Kerala Story` in the state that was imposed by the Mamata government on May 8. Trinamool Congress state general secretary and the party spokesman in West Bengal, Kunal Ghosh said that after the verdict of the apex court of the country the state government does not have any responsibility in the matter. “The state government took the precautionary step to prevent possible tension over the screening of the story. But after the lifting of the ban, the state government does not have any further responsibility,” Ghosh said.

    State commerce & industries minister Dr Sashi Panja stated that the chief minister will now decide on the next course of action. “Every chief minister has the right to make decisions which he or she thinks are good for the society,” she said.

    Actor-turned-politician and state BJP leader Rudranil Ghosh said that the verdict of the Supreme Court should be an eye-opener for the West Bengal government and it should refrain from taking similar “undemocratic” decisions in the matter.

    Nowhere in India there had been reports of tension or violence over the screening of `The Kerala Story`. Even no tension was witnessed in West Bengal in the four days the move was screened. The decision to ban the screening of the movie was a reflection of the ruling party`s appeasement politics,” he said.

    Senior state BJP leader and the former national secretary of the party, Rahul Sinha said that being reprimanded by the court of late has become regular with the state`s ruling party. “Better they take lessons from the successive court orders going against them,” Sinha said.

    Senior CPI(M) leader Tanmay Bhattacharya said that he agrees that `The Kerala Story` is a propaganda movie full of distortion of fact.

    “The motive was directed towards the Left Front government in Kerala. We criticized the contents of the movie but our government in Kerala did not ban the screening of the movie there. This is because we do not believe in banning any work of art. The West Bengal government banned its screening with a political motive,” he said.
