  • 'Sisters Under the Skin'
    Special articles ‘Sisters under the Skin’ Events of 2002 and Girls’ Education in Ahmedabad Even after the immediate violence has ceased, communal tension continues to exercise a vitiating influence on citizens and everyday modes of existence. This article looks at two girls’ schools in Ahmedabad, one sited in a Muslim locality and the other in a mixed dalit-Muslim populated neighbourhood, to study the impact of the events of 2002 on education. Fear and a history of violence have fostered antagonisms among different communities, while diminishing job opportunities and poverty imply that education opportunities, once available for girls, no longer exist. Denial of education, in turn, perpetuates illiteracy and trends towards an early marriage. The policies of a state government that sees communities as political votebanks have done little to restore amity between communities and faith in the state’s “secular” credentials. SUCHITRA SHETH, NINA HAEEMS he events of 2002 in Gujarat have generally perceived as is located did not directly experience violence during 2002. The acts of state-supported violence directed against Muslims paper is also informed by the authors’ first-hand experience of Twhich included mass murder, sexual abuse and large-scale having lived in Ahmedabad for the past two decades and being destruction of property. Without doubt, this was the principal eyewitnesses to the events of 2002. tragedy that left scars on the entire Muslim community. Yet, if The study uncovered many facets of what it means to be we look beyond, the violence has implications for society in a young girl in Ahmedabad and what it is like to be the mother Gujarat as a whole, for both Hindus and Muslims, and in par- of a young girl in Ahmedabad.

Taking a closer look at the nineteenth and twentieth centuries, the authors explore the political tensions, social dynamics and economic forces thal contributed to making the state what it is today, the impact of the British policies; the process of industrialization and urbanization^ and the rise of the middle class; the emergence of the idea of '5wadeshi“; the coming £ G and hr and his attempts to transform society and politics by bringing together diverse Gujarati cultural sources; and the series of communal riots that rocked Gujarat even as the state was consumed by nationalist fervour.
