  • Remembering Partition: Violence, Nationalism and History in India
    Remembering Partition: Violence, Nationalism and History in India Gyanendra Pandey CAMBRIDGE UNIVERSITY PRESS Remembering Partition Violence, Nationalism and History in India Through an investigation of the violence that marked the partition of British India in 1947, this book analyses questions of history and mem- ory, the nationalisation of populations and their pasts, and the ways in which violent events are remembered (or forgotten) in order to en- sure the unity of the collective subject – community or nation. Stressing the continuous entanglement of ‘event’ and ‘interpretation’, the author emphasises both the enormity of the violence of 1947 and its shifting meanings and contours. The book provides a sustained critique of the procedures of history-writing and nationalist myth-making on the ques- tion of violence, and examines how local forms of sociality are consti- tuted and reconstituted by the experience and representation of violent events. It concludes with a comment on the different kinds of political community that may still be imagined even in the wake of Partition and events like it. GYANENDRA PANDEY is Professor of Anthropology and History at Johns Hopkins University. He was a founder member of the Subaltern Studies group and is the author of many publications including The Con- struction of Communalism in Colonial North India (1990) and, as editor, Hindus and Others: the Question of Identity in India Today (1993).

The four names of great men from Sindh that he gave, included three former students of Sindh Madressah. Today, in 21st century, it gives pleasure that Sindh Madressah has kept alive that tradition of producing great men to serve the humanity.

Jamia Millia Islamia, an institution originally established at Aligarh in United Provinces, India in 1920 became a Central University by an act of the Indian Parliament in 1988. In Urdu language, Jamia means ‘University’, and Millia means ‘National’. The story of its growth from a small institution in the pre-independence India to a central university located in New Delhi—offering integrated education from nursery to research in specialized areas—is a saga of dedication, conviction and vision of a people who worked against all odds and saw it growing step by step.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION Present volume begins with the incarceration of Mahatma Gandhi. It might have been Government's expectation that they would have some peace, Gandhiji being jailed. But that was not so. Immediately after entering the Jail Gandhiji started troubling Government on his rights in prison. Though this was his first imprisonment in India, he had been jailed several times in South Africa, and knew well his rights. He wrote to Government for newspapers such as ' Modern Review', 'Vasant' and ' Samalochak'; but these magazines were refused by Government on the ground that they were political magazines. But Gandhiji was not a man to surrender his rights and so he immediately asked for other papers. The correspondence is very interesting and shows how Gandhiji was trying to convince the authorities that it was his right and they cannot refuse it. At one place he says that newspapers, books and magazines are as essential for a prisoner as air, water, and food. Ultimately he partially succeeded because of his persistant demands. The other point of conflict was interviews regarding who should come and who should not, whether relatives only or friends, political or others. The very first interview was granted to his son Devadas Gandhi and Shree Rajagopalachari. After the interview Rajagopalachari gave an interview to the press and told them that Gandhiji was not treated well. This created a stir and Government refuted it saying that they had already given Gandhiji certain facilities. But this left a bad taste and Government became very strict as regards interviews. Henceforth Government did not allow political persons to see him.

  • Volume Twenty
    1. CONGRESS REPORT ON THE PUNJAB DISORDERS1 CHAPTER I THE PUNJAB (HISTORICAL AND GEOGRAPHICAL) Historically the Punjab may be considered the most important province of India. It was here that the Aryas of Vedic times first made their home. It was here that the hymns of the Rig Veda were first chanted. It was to this province, at the great University of Taxila, that seekers after knowledge flocked from various parts of the world. It was in this province that the Pandus and the Kurus, the great heroes of the Mahabharata, fought out their great battles. It was here that Osiris, King of Egypt, first touched Indian soil and Semiramis, Queen of Assyria, who at the head of her vast armies tried her fortune for the dominion of India, suffered a crushing defeat. The Scythians and Tartars and Persians had to measure swords with the sons of the Punjab in their attempts to penetrate into India. It was in this province that Alexander the Great, though victorious, for the first time met a foe, under King Porus, who shattered his dream of a world-wide dominion. 1 Authorship of this Report, the full title of which reads Report of the Commis- sioners oppointed by the Punjab Sub-committee of the Indian National Congress, and which was published on March 25, 1920, has been attributed to Gandhiji on the basis of the following evidence : (I)”The responsibility of organizing the work of the Committee devolved on me, and as the privilege of conducting the inquiry in the largest number of places fell to my lot, I got a rare opportunity.

  • The Particulars of Its Organization, Functions and Duties:– Section 4(1)(B)(I)
    MANUAL-1 The particulars of its organization, functions and duties:– Section 4(1)(b)(i) Jamia Millia Islamia, an institution originally established at Aligarh in United Provinces, India in 1920 became a Central University by an act of the Indian Parliament in 1988. In Urdu language, Jamia means ‘University’, and Millia means ‘National’. The story of its growth from a small institution in the pre-independence India to a central university located in New Delhi—offering integrated education from nursery to research in specialized areas—is a saga of dedication, conviction and vision of a people who worked against all odds and saw it growing step by step. They “built up the Jamia Millia stone by stone and sacrifice by sacrifice,” said Sarojini Naidu, the nightingale of India. Conception Under the colonial British rule, two dominant trends joined hands and contributed towards in the birth of Jamia. One was the anti-colonial Islamic activism and the other was the pro- independence aspiration of the politically radical section of western educated Indian Muslim intelligentsia. In the political climate of 1920, the two trends gravitated together with Mahatma Gandhi as a catalyst. The anti-colonial activism signified by the Khilafat and the pro- independence aspirations symbolised by the non-cooperation movement of the Indian National Congress helped to harness creative energies and the subsequent making of Jamia Millia Islamia. Rabindranath Tagore called it “one of the most progressive educational institutions of India”. Responding to Gandhiji’s call to boycott all educational institutions supported or run by the colonial regime, a group of nationalist teachers and students quit Aligarh Muslim University, protesting against its pro-British inclinations.

Mission Netaji is publishing this electronic version to facilitate a wider reach. The Indian Struggle Villeneuve (Vaud),Villa Olga, February 22,1935. Dear Mr. Subhas C. Bose, I duly received your volume “The Indian Struggle 1920-34”, which you were good enough to send me. I thank you for it and congratulate on it heartily. So interesting seemed the book to us that I ordered another copy so that my wife and sister should have one each. It is an indispensable work for the history of the Indian Movement. In it you show the best qualities of the historian: lucidity and high equity of mind. Rarely it happens that a man of action as you are is apt to judge without party spirit. …We, the men of thought, must each of us fight against the temptation, that befalls us in moments of fatigue and unsettledness, of repairing to a world beyond the battle called either God, or Art, or independence of Spirit, or those distant regions of the mystic soul. But fight we must, our duty lies on this side of the ocean, on the battle-ground of men… I sincerely wish that your health will speedily recover for the good of India that is in need of you and I beg you to believe in my cordial sympathy. Romain Rolland ii www.subhaschandrabose.org The Indian Struggle PREFACE Many are the defects that will be found in this book.

  • Learning Strategies and Audio-Visual Aids Used in Adult Education in India: a Historical Overview
    Learning Strategies and Audio-Visual Aids used in Adult Education in India: A Historical Overview Fouzia Khursheed Ahmad1 and Prof. M. C. Paul2 Abstract: Education is the first step towards empowerment, and the most crucial factor in the overall development of an individual as well as the nation. In India, education in general, and adult education in particular, has been through a series of changes since its origin as a welfare activity, to its emergence as a tool for social and political awakening in the country. Operationalized into various programmes, schemes and projects, as - basic literacy, civic literacy, functional literacy, and developmental literacy; adult education eventually evolved with the identification of the emerging needs of learners in the democratic society post-independence, with the discovery of new educational objectives, thus shifting the focus to the need for development of new methods and techniques of instructional delivery in adult education. The use of need- based learning strategies and audio-visual aids in education can help in addressing the pedagogical issues in adult education by promoting active learning, facilitating in the acquisition and retention of factual information, enhancing autonomy and learning achievement of adult learners and helping them in choosing what, where and how to learn in a purposeful way. Various strategies have been used since the ancient period in India to preserve, impart and retain knowledge, which necessitates a re-look at the different stages that adult education has witnessed in the development of instructional materials, mediums and techniques, structure, systematization of knowledge and the mode of delivery, that has guided the learning process.
