  • Volume 1 on Stage/ Off Stage
    lives of the women Volume 1 On Stage/ Off Stage Edited by Jerry Pinto Sophia Institute of Social Communications Media Supported by the Laura and Luigi Dallapiccola Foundation Published by the Sophia Institute of Social Communications Media, Sophia Shree B K Somani Memorial Polytechnic, Bhulabhai Desai Road, Mumbai 400 026 All rights reserved Designed by Rohan Gupta be.net/rohangupta Printed by Aniruddh Arts, Mumbai Contents Preface i Acknowledgments iii Shanta Gokhale 1 Nadira Babbar 39 Jhelum Paranjape 67 Dolly Thakore 91 Preface We’ve heard it said that a woman’s work is never done. What they do not say is that women’s lives are also largely unrecorded. Women, and the work they do, slip through memory’s net leaving large gaps in our collective consciousness about challenges faced and mastered, discoveries made and celebrated, collaborations forged and valued. Combating this pervasive amnesia is not an easy task. This book is a beginning in another direction, an attempt to try and construct the professional lives of four of Mumbai’s women (where the discussion has ventured into the personal lives of these women, it has only been in relation to the professional or to their public images). And who better to attempt this construction than young people on the verge of building their own professional lives? In learning about the lives of inspiring professionals, we hoped our students would learn about navigating a world they were about to enter and also perhaps have an opportunity to reflect a little and learn about themselves. So four groups of students of the post-graduate diploma in Social Communications Media, SCMSophia’s class of 2014 set out to choose the women whose lives they wanted to follow and then went out to create stereoscopic views of them.

    Written Statement for the Record Aarti Tikoo Singh Senior Assistant Editor The Times of India Submitted to the United States House of Representatives Committee on Foreign Affairs Subcommittee on Asia, the Pacific, and Nonproliferation October 20, 2019 “Human Rights in South Asia: Views from the State Department and the Region” Location: 2172 Rayburn House Office Building, Washington, DC 20515 Subcommittee: Asia, the Pacific, and Nonproliferation October 22, 2019 Biography I am a senior journalist based in New Delhi with almost two decades of experience in conflict-reporting, writing, research and analysis. I am an editor with India’s largest English daily The Times of India, and previously worked for another major English daily of India, Hindustan Times. Having covered Kashmir extensively, I broke some of the biggest news stories and exclusives on Kashmir, which had major policy implications for both India and Pakistan. Besides Kashmir, I have also reported from other conflict zones of India— Chhattisgarh, Jharkhand and Assam. My opinion pieces have been published in various national and international publications. I have been a recipient of several awards for my research, reporting and editorial accomplishments. I am an alumnus of Columbia University, with a Masters in International Affairs. I worked briefly at Columbia University and interned at the United Nations and BBC in New York. After the forced displacement of my entire community from Kashmir in 1990 (Hindus in Kashmir were a minority), I grew up in destitution, in Jammu, the southern part of Jammu and Kashmir. Though I am a displaced Kashmiri with my own history of struggle as a refugee in my own country, I do not speak as a representative of the community and their political aspirations.

  • Demographics/Geography of Kashmir
    Ancient Kashmir was home to a majority Hindu and Buddhist population for thousands of years and renowned as a center for Hindu and Buddhist learning. Muslim invaders from Central Asia took control in the 14th century. Under Muslim rule, Hindus faced periods of persecution, resulting in mass migrations from the region roughly once a century, until the late 1700s. In the early 1800s, Sikh rulers controlled the region, followed by a Hindu dynasty from the mid-1800s through 1947. Demographics/Geography of Kashmir The historic region of Kashmir has a total area of 85,807 sq. miles and is now divided between three countries. Pakistan occupies approximately 30,160 sq. miles, known as Pakistan Occupied Kashmir (PoK) and Gilgit-Baltistan. China controls 16,500 sq. miles of Kashmir (through a boundary settlement with Pakistan and occupation of land during the 1962 Indo-China War), while the remaining territory forms the Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir. The Indian state of Jammu and Kashmir is divided into three parts: Kashmir Valley, Jammu, and Ladakh. The total population is 12,541,302 (Muslims: 66.97%; Hindus: 29.63%; Sikhs: 2.03%; Buddhists/Others: 1.36%). Muslims comprise a majority in the Valley, Hindus are a majority in Jammu, while Buddhists account for 45% of the population in Ladakh. www.hafsite.org PRomotiNG DigNitY, MUTUAL REspEct, AND plURAlism 910 17th St NW, Suite 316A, Washington, DC 20006 1947 Kashmir Becomes Part of the Republic of India In 1947, the Princely State of Jammu and Kashmir became part of the Republic of India.
