Hindutva overshadowing India's commitment towards international law: the case of Rohingya

dc.abstract.en	The thesis ‘Hindutva overshadowing India's commitment towards international law: the case of Rohingya, provides an overview of India's complex relationship with international humanitarian law (IHL) and its role as a Global South leader. Despite not being a signatory to the 1951 Refugee Convention or Protocol, it is bound by customary international law, particularly the principle of non-refoulement, which prohibits returning refugees to places where they face persecution. It also explores how India's refugee policy, especially under the right-wing Hindutva ideology of the ‘Bhartiya Janata Party has become increasingly selective resulting in discriminatory treatment of Muslim refugees, particularly the Rohingyas, who face hostility, deportation, and denial of basic services.
