In Women in Indian History: Social, Economic and Cultural Perspectives edited by Kiran Pawar. New Delhi: Vision and Venture, 1996.

Delhi, B.R.; 1989. 188p.

In Indian Journal of Social Work. 49(4); October 1998. p.349-358. The study, based on a sample of 177 male and female respondents of Allahabad city focuses on the sati incident of Deorala and examines the causes attributed by people leading to this event. The data reveals that the high status group attributes the event to the in-laws and to religious beliefs, whereas the lower status groups attributes it to fate and divine 1 inspiration. The implications of these findings in explaining the diverse reactions to the sati incident are discussed. Das, Veena. Strange Response. In Illustrated Weekly of India. 28 February, 1988.p.30-32. The public reaction to Roop Kanwar's self-immolation has mainly been indignation and contempt for sati. The author looks into history to show how this particular way of talking about sati was formulated during the British period and what it signified. The real tragedy of Roop Kanwar, she argues is the idea of heroic death which today promises transcendence through spectacular death to our youth living a banal existence and that this must be resisted.

GUPTA OF THE INDIAN ADMINISTRATIVE SERVICE Superintendent of Census Operations, Rajasthan 1966 PREFACE Men are by their nature fond of festivals and as social beings they are also fond of congregating, gathe­ ring together and celebrating occasions jointly. Festivals thus culminate in fairs. Some fairs and festivals are mythological and are based on ancient traditional stories of gods and goddesses while others commemorate the memories of some illustrious pers<?ns of distinguished bravery or. persons with super-human powers who are now reverenced and idealised and who are mentioned in the folk lore, heroic verses, where their exploits are celebrated and in devotional songs sung in their praise. Fairs and festivals have always. been important parts of our social fabric and culture. While the orthodox celebrates all or most of them the common man usually cares only for the important ones. In the pages that follow an attempt is made to present notes on some selected fairs and festivals which are particularly of local importance and are characteristically Rajasthani in their character and content. Some matter which forms the appendices to this book will be found interesting. Lt. Col. Tod's fascinating account of the festivals of Mewar will take the reader to some one hundred fifty years ago. Reproductions of material printed in the old Gazetteers from time to time give an idea about the celebrations of various fairs and festivals in the erstwhile princely States. Sarva Sbri G.

  • The Deorala Judgement Glorifying Sati" by Susan Abraham
    Abraham, Susan.: The Deorala Judgement Glorifying Sati" by Susan Abraham. The Lawyers Collective. 12(6); June, 1997. p.4-12. --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- The Deorala Judgement Glorifying Sati Susan Abraham As with Bhanwari Devi, gross injustice was committed in the Roop Kanwar sati case, when yet another session court in Rajasthan, acquitted all 32 of the accused in October last year. Close on its heels came the triumphant 'mahayagna' to commemorate the 400th anniversary of the Rani Sati temple at Jhunjunu, the 'mother' of all sati temples. 'Akhir Roop Kanwar Sati Ho Hi Gayi' the headlines in the Jaipur local daily sounded jubilant on September 5, 1987. Nine years later, on October 12, 1996, the same newspaper's headlines 'Aakhir Deorala ke rahiwasiyon ko nyay mil gaya' were positively exultant. A national daily was more specific: "Jubilant Rajputs across Aravalli ranges in north east Rajasthan drown protests against sati verdict". After all, thanks to the order of the Additional District & Sessions Judge of Neem-ka-thana, Shri Om Prakash Gupta, on October 11, 1996, all 32 accused in Roop Kanwar's murder, some called it sati, trial were acquitted. Deorala's reputation, not to forget Rajput honour, had been vindicated - with the blessings of 'sati mata' Roop Kanwar, the culprits will add. Such a culmination of the nine year legal battle for booking those responsible for the killing of a 19-year old widow, was tragic and a blot on our criminal justice delivery system. More so as it came in the year of so called 'judicial activism', the much-bandied accolade bestowed on our judiciary for its apparent commitment to mete out justice.
