S Sewak Singh (G.D. Art[Lahore]), his father, was a renowned artist specilaising in landscape and nature painting. Dr Sukhpal Singh is a homeopathy physician, he attended Guru Nanakdev Homeopathy College of Ludhiana to receive his formal qualification. At a young age he showed great interest in line drawings. Gradually he progressed to model making, his first replica of The Golden Temple was built in 1976 on the Golden Temple's 400th anniversary. Dr. Singh's skill is greatly influenced by his grand-mother who was a very pious lady and a staunch devotee of Sri Guru Ram Das Ji. Dr. Sukhpal Singh believes that by displaying the replicas of various Gurdwaras and Sikh religious places at prominent places, the younger generation can be made more aware about their culture and religion. By seeing a minature of a Gurdwara one would be able to relate and appreciate with the Gurdwara or the religious place more. The replicas being to the scale are that much more realistic. All replicas carry with them facts about each Gurdwara tp help people learn about the historical background of the Gurdwara in question. Dr. Sukhpal's skills are not restricted to model making, he is also an avid painter. He paintings relate to the sikh religion. GOLDEN TEMPLE: Golden temple the holiest and highest shrine for Sikhs around the world The Harminder Sahib (meaning Temple of God) is also commonly known as the Golden Temple...

  • 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 Sikh Dilemma: the Partition of Punjab 1947
    The Sikh Dilemma: The Partition of Punjab 1947 Busharat Elahi Jamil Abstract The Partition of India 1947 resulted in the Partition of the Punjab into two, East and West. The 3rd June Plan gave a sense of uneasiness and generated the division of dilemma among the large communities of the British Punjab like Muslims, Hindus and Sikh besetting a holocaust. This situation was beneficial for the British and the Congress. The Sikh community with the support of Congress wanted the proportion of the Punjab according to their own violation by using different modules of deeds. On the other hand, for Muslims the largest populous group of the Punjab, by using the platform of Muslim League showed the resentment because they wanted the decision on the Punjab according to their requirements. Consequently the conflict caused the world’s bloodiest partition and the largest migration of the history. Introduction The Sikhs were the third largest community of the United Punjab before India’s partition. The Sikhs had the historic religious, economic and socio-political roots in the Punjab. Since the annexation of the Punjab, they were faithful with the British rulers and had an influence in the Punjabi society, even enjoying various privileges. But in the 20th century, the Muslims 90 Pakistan Vision Vol. 17 No. 1 Independence Movement in India was not only going to divide the Punjab but also causing the division of the Sikh community between East and West Punjab, which confused the Sikh leadership. So according to the political scenarios in different timings, Sikh leadership changed their demands and started to present different solutions of the Sikh enigma for the geographical transformation of the province.

  • Capturing Obscenity: the Trials and Tribulations of Saadat Hasan Manto
    NAVEIÑ REET: Nordic Journal of Law and Social Research (NNJLSR) No.5, 2014, pp. 15-40 Capturing Obscenity: The Trials and Tribulations of Saadat Hasan Manto Osama Siddique1 Abstract There is something extraordinarily evocative about great fiction or literary narratives by great writers of fiction on the theme of coercive authority. The celebrated South Asian Urdu essayist and short story writer Saadat Hasan Manto (1912-1955) belongs to a long tradition of highly gifted authors who had the occasion of personally encountering and confronting the cumbersome machinations and the at times mindless and oppressive logic of authority. Like other eminent writers of his ilk, his reflections on his experiences – Manto underwent several criminal trials for allegedly obscene writing – have left posterity with much more than the irate chronicles of someone confounded by an exhausting personal ordeal. We are bequeathed instead with a wealth of deep, astute, and compelling observations of a keen-eyed, sensitive, and articulate man – observations that continue to hold great relevance and wide appeal so many decades later. This article endeavours to capture Manto’s unique critique of imposed legal frameworks for ‘acceptable’ creative expression, as well as his memorable picturization of the spectacle of the legal trial in colonial and post-colonial contexts. Introduction When it comes to providing a fascinating commentary on abusive or insensitive application of power and its discontents, Manto is quite similar to other illustrious writers, including literary giants such as Dickens, Kafka, Orwell and Coetzee. They too experienced such application of authority in diverse personal ways and subsequently adopted a vantage point from where they could examine the phenomenon from both within and without.

Box 1346 Ann Arbor, Ml 48106- 1346 ABSTRACT This thesis examines the tension between mystical ( haqTqT) and romantic (majazT) conceptions of love in the Punjabi qissa tradition before the end of the eighteenth century. All the texts under consideration date from before the third quarter of the eighteenth century and, therefore, both predate and inform the classical qissa tradition of the nineteenth century. The texts narrate three of the most commonly represented love stories in pre­ twentieth century Punjab, two of them versions of local folk legends and one an episode from the Quran. A total of six texts are considered in the thesis: Hafiz Barkhurdar's Mirza Sahiba, Siddlq Tail's Yusuf Zulatkha, and the versions of HTr by Ahmad, Muqbil and Varis Shah.

Oberoi The Australian National University, Canberra March, 1987 This thesis is the result of my own research carried out while enrolled as a Ph.D candidate at the Australian National University, Canberra, December, 1982 to March, 1987. t) . ~ . c:i!:i.Ji~- Abstract The pluralistic paradigm of the Sikh faith for much of the nineteenth century allowed its adherents to belong to any one of the following traditions: U dasi, Nirmala, Suthresashi, Khalsa, Sangatsaihbie, Jitmalie, Bakhtatmlie, Mihansahie, Sahajdhari, Kuka and Sarvaria. Many of these Sikhs shaved their heads, freely smoked tobacco and hashish and were not particular about maintaing the five external symbols of the faith. In the absence of a centralized church and an attendant religious hierarchy, heterogeneity in religious beliefs, plurality of rituals, and diversity of life styles, were freely acknowledged. A pilgrimage to the Golden Temple could be supplemented with similar undertakings to the Ganges at Hardwar or the shrine of a Muslim saint. Attending seasonal festivals at Benares or Hardwar was in no way considered a transgression of prevailing Sikh doctrines, whatever teleological studies may like to assert today.

The very mention of Anandpur Sahib creates a thrill in the veins of a genuine Sikh, his hair begin standing on the ends, his blood begins throbbing in his biceps, and, he feels himself in unexplainable moment of bliss. Paying obeisance at Kesgarh Sahib immediately reminds of the revelation of Khalsa, the Pun} Piaray and Khandey Di Pahul. A visit to Anandgarh fort reminds of the martial music of the Chandi Di Vaar. Damalgarh becomes a living scene of Sahibzadas learning sword wielding. Thara Sahib seems to be receiving Bhai Kirpa Ram (Singh) Dutt and 16 Brahmins from Kashmir. Guru De Mahal remind of Mata Nanaki, Mata Gujari, Mata Jeet Kaur, Mata Sunder Kaur and Mata Sahib Kaur preparing sacred food for the visitors to the City ofBliss. At Takht Damdama Sahib, we feel Guru Sahib still holding his court and Bhai Mani Singh giving final touches to Guru Granth Sahib. Guru Da Lahore still seems to be celebrating the marriage of Guru Gobind Singh Sahib and Mata Jeet Kaur.

  • Ruins of Saragarhi Signals Post 1897
    2/21/2019 1 2/21/2019 2 2/21/2019 Untamed people for an untamed land The Pashto‐speaking people residing in the border region between the Hindu Kush in northeastern Afghanistan and the northern stretch of the Indus River in Pakistan have several names: Pashtun (Pashto) Pathan (Hindustani) Afghan (Persian) Pashtun tradition claims descent from Israel’s King Saul. Tribes trace male bloodlines from a common ancestor, and are divided into clans, subclans, and patriarchal families. About 36 million Pashtuns in some 60 tribes live today in Afghanistan (11 million) and Pakistan (25 million). The “Grim” (British India’s North West Frontier) The North‐West Frontier (present‐day Khyber Pakhtunkhwa) region of the British Indian Empire was a difficult area to conquer and to hold, whether strategically or militarily. As the western frontier between today’s Pakistan and Afghanistan, it remains so. The border (“the Durand Line”) divides Pashtuns in Pakistan from Pashtuns in Afghanistan. The two main gateways on the North West Frontier are the Khyber and Bolan Passes, traditional invasion routes to the Indian subcontinent. Russian expansion into Central Asia in the 19th Century made stability of the Frontier and control of Afghanistan cornerstones of British strategy. From 1849 until 1947, military history in the region was a succession of punitive expeditions against offending tribes, punctuated by three Anglo‐Afghan Wars (1839–42; 1878–80; 1919) where the British tried to control Afghanistan. Other than many British officers learning soldiering, few ended well. "The largest and most serious outbreak of fighting on the North West Frontier during the colonial era was the Pathan Uprising of 1897‐8.
