Caste, Trade Or Class: Historical Transition in Stratification Structure in Rural Punjab
Journal of the Punjab University Historical Society Volume: 34, No. 01, January – June 2021 Ayesha Farooq * Caste, Trade or Class: Historical Transition in Stratification Structure in Rural Punjab Abstract Dynamics of caste have modified over time due to occupational changes, economic positions and religious enlightenment. However, it is not entirely replaced by any new stratification structure, resulting in much confusion regarding the adopted caste titles in the community. The present research has been conducted in a village named Mohla in the Punjab, Pakistan. Findings revealed resistance of young generation towards the existing caste system and they were recognized by trades of their forefather. Economic factor found important for such differences, besides education and migration. There has been fluidity of caste perception over generation and across social strata; young, educated, economically better off craftsmen and women condemned caste division whereas most of the landowners emphasized the importance of caste system. Shift in basis of social differentiation, role of chieftain has become negligible as majority of them tend to resolve their issues by themselves and go to police or courts. Keywords: Caste system, Class structure, social stratification, intergenerational differences, economics, migration, infrastructure. Introduction The present paper aims to assess stratification system in a rural community named Mohla, situated in District Gujrat of Punjab, Pakistan. Implications of caste on various aspects of social life are also observed. Eglar studied this village five decades ago and found caste stratification as foremost aspect in determining social status and life opportunities.1 In this study, we intend to look into the differences between old and young villager’s perception regarding caste system. -

PRESENTATIONS By National Speakers Pak J Med Sci 2016 www.pjms.com.pk Special Supplement Abstract Book IDEC August 2016 49 34- Shall we be treating all women with HRT? Hormone replacement therapies, Metabolic and cardiovascular effects. Prof. A.H. Aamir Consultant Endocrinologist, Professor of Medicines, Head of Department of Endocrinology, Hayatabad Medical Complex, Peshawar. Menopause affects every woman and it usually occurs at a median age of 51 years. As large number of women is reaching midlife, it is likely that physicians will come across a stage where HRT may need to be considered for their patient. Menopause has Physical, Psychological, Uro-genital tract, Cardiovascular, Skeletal effects. Estrogens also have effects on carbohydrate homeostasis, fatty liver and atherosclerosis. Postmenopausal women with hyper-androgenemia have elevated risks for NIDDM-Risk and CHD. Most of these effects are reversible with replacement of Estrogens. Women health initiative study (WHI) initially showed an increased cardiovascular risk with HRT increased risk of VTE, stroke, MI Risk appears to be higher in initial years of treatment, followed by decline in risk. Recent re-analyses of WHI results suggested that the association between HRT and cardiovascular risk is influenced by factors such as age and time since menopause • Reduced CV risk in women <10 years post-menopause. • WHI population included older women with other CV risk factors. Risks of stroke should be balanced against benefits, such as decreased risk of hip fracture. Treatment with HRT needs to be individualized in the light of recent International menopausal society recommendations. 50 Pak J Med Sci 2016 www.pjms.com.pk Special Supplement Abstract Book IDEC August 2016 35- Characteristics of Fasting and Ramadan-specific diabetes education trends in people with diabetes (CARE) Prof. -

Over the centuries important Fig. 1 political, social and economic developments had Tribal dance, taken place. But social change was not Santal painted scroll. the same everywhere, because different kinds of societies evolved differently. It is important to understand how, and why, this happened. In large parts of the subcontinent, society was already divided according to the rules of varna. These rules, as prescribed by the Brahmanas, were accepted by the rulers of large kingdoms. The difference between the high and low, and between the rich and poor, increased. Under the Delhi Sultans and the Mughals, this hierarchy between social classes grew further. Beyond Big Cities: Tribal Societies There were, however, other kinds of societies as well. Many societies in the subcontinent did not follow the social rules and rituals prescribed by the Brahmanas. Nor were they divided into numerous unequal classes. Such societies are often called tribes. TRIBES, NOMADS AND 91 SETTLED COMMUNITIES 2021-22 Members of each tribe were united by kinship bonds. Many tribes obtained their livelihood from agriculture. Others were hunter-gatherers or herders. Most often they combined these activities to make full use of the natural resources of the area in which they lived. Some tribes were nomadic and moved from one place to another.

Anand Marriage 1 - Development and History Anand Marriage Act 1909 Kulwant Singh Khokhar, 12502 Nightingale Drive, Chester, VA 23836, USA. E-mail [email protected] . Phone (804) 530-0160. Fax – same as phone. Tuesday, October 4, 2005 Anad Karaj i.e. Anan-Vivah - Anand is Joy, Karaj is an act: undertaking. Viah or Vivah means marriage. Anand Karaj is marriage performed by Anand ceremony. Marriage is an act of taking girl as wife by her husband from the house of her father-mother. In Anand Karaj, four lavan’ (name of Hymns) are recited from Guru Granth Sahib (the Sikh Holy Book), and with each Lavn’, the boy followed by the girl, circumambulate (goes around) Guru Granth Sahib. Imagery Development of physical relations in animals is natural: instinctive. Saris-crane and Koonj-crane partner for life. Might be that man with proportionally highest brain mass had less developed instinct that is apparent even now, and animals and birds were his teachers. The man watched them and learnt pairing etc. We watch it daily that every living thing protects its produce till it becomes independent, loves, and cares for it. In this, they are no way less than intelligent man. It is possible that man and woman started living together due to common factor of love for progeny, and need for its protection and provisions. This created a small group – family. The essential need of sharing, developed mutual attachment in man and woman, and it evolved into sense of possession i.e. relationship – she is my wife, he is my husband. This was to manage responsibilities, and division of labor for proper and meaningful living. -

Civic Engagement Through Community Service APPNA Association of Physicians of Pakistani Descent of North America 6414 South Cass Avenue, Westmont, IL 60559-3209, USA APPNA Winter Meeting 2017 December 21-23, 2017 Lahore, Pakistan Editorial This year we are celebrating 40th anniversary of APPNA, in these last 40 years our association has morphed into one of the largest ethnic professional society of North America representing over 18000 Pakistan-decent medical graduates from its small humble beginning with just a handful members attending its first meeting in 1976. With every passing year, with every new challenge, opportunity or adversity APPNA has developed even more resilience just like our nation when it comes to dealing with these challenges. Over the years APPNA has taken upon several daunting tasks depending upon the need of the time and strategic vision of its leader. However, no matter who is leading the organization, what kind of political environment or government exit, whenever a calamity hit, APPNA with all the collective strength of its member is always at the forefront of fighting the adversity, regardless if it is in our motherland or adoptive home. Some of the recent examples of excellent relief work APPNA and its members did include help of Tsunami victims in Southeast Asia (2004), Katrina victims in New Orleans, USA and earthquake victims in Pakistan (2005), victims of Sindh Floods (2007) and Pakistan Flood (2010), Thur water well project, Several Free clinics throughout United States, National Health Care Day, Corneal transplants, Fistula surgeries and Cleft Palate surgeries. As a Pakistani medical graduate immigrating to USA, one APPNA characteristic I cherish the most is the platform it has provided to people like myself who want to give back to our motherland and serve their adopted communities.
