Conference Name : International Conference on Mathematical Modeling, Computational Intelligence Techniques and Renewable Energy (MMCITRE - 2020) Abstract: The paper introduces an efficient asymmetric algorithm for encrypting images utilizing chaotic maps and elliptic curve cryptography. In the proposed image encryption method there is a combination of elliptic curve ElGamal encryption method with masking of image through chaotic map for enhancing security and efficiency. Proposed algorithm can encrypt images of any size. Security analysis are carried through to validate efficiency, sturdiness and feasibility of the algorithm. Compare to recent related encryption schemes, this scheme has better ability to resist crypt analytical and statistical attacks.

Title :- Negotiating Political Space in the Host Nation: The Case of South Asian Diaspora in Britain

Paper:- presented

Level :- international

By: dr. ajinkya gaikwad

Organizer :- International Conference on Diaspora Governance organized by the Centre for Diaspora Studies, Central University of Gujarat, Gandhinagar

Venue :- Central University of Gujarat, Gandhinagar

Date: 10/02/2020

ABSTRACT Diaspora politics is a form of transnational political engagement which is structured around a particularistic identity category (such as a national, ethnic, religious, or sectarian identity) and a real or mythical “homeland” (Adamson 2012). Drawing the basic frame of reference from this definition, this paper seeks to analyse the political activism and institutionalism of the South Asian diaspora in Britain. A liberal-democratic polity provides diaspora communities with adequate opportunities for participation and competition for public resources. However, multiple locations, internal diversities and contexts of migration may act as hindrances to their consolidation as political communities. Hence, to negotiate the political spaces in the host societies, religious identity emerges as a significant consolidating factor. This happens amidst tensions and pressures that emerge from assimilation, integration and transnationalism. Today, diaspora identities are considerably shaped by political happenings and socio-cultural transformations and movements in the homeland. Here, South Asia's peculiar political history facilitates the religious narrative among diasporas in host societies. Lastly, the paper will assess the evolution of Britain from a difference-blind liberal polity that has historically been avoiding political religiosity to a polity where faith groups are important civil society participants in areas of governance. In recent times, political frameworks of the host society tend to identify ‘faith-based communities’ as important stakeholders which further rationalizes and reinforces defining ethnic minorities and diaspora groups in religious terms. Meanwhile, the native majority communities are also actively engaged in constructing and subtly propagating specific narratives regarding the diaspora thus giving rise to the discourse on ‘model’ communities.

ABSTRACT The term “subalternity” refers to a condition of subordination facilitated by structures of economic, social, racial, linguistic or cultural dominance (Beverley, 1999). This paper will broadly explore the discourse on caste and specifically deal with lower caste mobilizations in India. When viewed with an instrumentalist perspective, caste consciousness and subalternity can be positive resources and can act as an agency in a democratic polity where rights and entitlements can be constantly demanded against the state. Through various social movements and mobilizations, the subalterns have 'spoken' and they were also 'heard'. However, in the political sphere, the subaltern faces several limitations and challenges. There are attempts where the majoritarian politics is challenged by assertion of alternative and autonomous lower-caste identities. But such assertions do not necessarily attain political success due to internal schisms. This is when the idea of different degrees or levels of subalternity comes into play. Moreover, the heterogeneity and stratifications, often of a hierarchical nature, among subalterns has given rise to or strengthened historically held symbols which become rallying points for the formation of political identities. The political projects undertaken to link the histories and heroism of lower caste groups to majoritarian narratives is a case in point. These fragmented identities may discourage, limit or even dismantle contestations and mobilizations against the dominant narratives. This happens in a political space where hegemonic discourses are built to subsume the 'subaltern' given to the divisions.

Title :- Consensus and Contestation: Reflections on Identity Formation and Disintegration of the South Asian Diaspora in Britain

Paper:- presented

Level :- international

ABSTRACT Identity formation among the diaspora is primarily based on territorial affiliations, ethnic, cultural or racial determinants and class orientations. Internal fissures and differences are often subsumed or underplayed as a part of ‘consensus’ or ‘convenience’ which is based on shared identities and common interests among the diaspora communities. However, this consensus is constantly under pressure due to challenges emerging from religious identities, diaspora nationalism, politics in the country of origin and contestations in political, social and cultural terrains of the host country. Different migrations and settlement patterns of diasporas, diverse social and economic contexts along with transnationalism play an important role in facilitating this process. Moreover, the host country’s attempts to accommodate, integrate and assimilate immigrant populations may have divergent outcomes. It may lead to a heightened identity consciousness, hardening of external and internal boundaries or exemplification of hybridity among the diaspora. Drawing upon the conception of diaspora identities as those “constantly producing and reproducing themselves anew, through transformation and difference” (Hall, 1990, p.235), this paper explores the formation, evolution and eventual disintegration of the South Asian diasporic identity in Britain.
