Awadh Bar Association High Court, Lucknow Estd: - 1901 AWADH BAR ASSOCIATION HIGH COURT, LUCKNOW ESTD: - 1901 High Court Act Government of India Act, 1935 Amalgamation - Clause 14 of the Amalgamation Order 1948 “The new High Court, and the Judges and division Courts thereof, shall sit at Allahabad or at such other places in the United Provinces as the Chief Justice may, with the approval of the Governor of the United Provinces, appoint; Provided that unless the Governor of the United Provinces with the concurrence of the Chief Justice otherwise directs, such judges of the new High Court, not less than two in number, as the Chief Justice may from time to time nominate, shall sit at Lucknow in order to exercise in respect of cases arising in such area in Oudh as the Chief Justice may direct, the Jurisdiction and power for the time being vested in the new High Court. [1975) 2 SCC 671] - The order describes the High Court as the new High Court. The two High Courts have amalgamated in the new High Court. The seat is at Allahabad or at such other places as may be determined. There is no permanence attached to Allahabad. If that were the intention of the Order, the word "and" instead of the word "or" would have been used. Other places may be determined by the Chief Justice in consultation with the Governor. It is left to prudence of the authorities mentioned as to what other places should be determined. In the normal understanding of the matters, it is left to the discretion of the authorities as to whether the seats at Allahabad as well as at Lucknow will be changed. Both places may continue. Both places may be changed. Lucknow is the seat of the Government. Allahabad has also the history that the High Court was there before the order. Lucknow has been the principal place of oudh. The order aimed at giving status to the Chief Commissioner's Court as that of the High Court. It is difficult to foresee the future whether the authorities will change the location to other places but no idea of permanent seat can be read into the order. One can only say that it is the wish and hope that both Allahabad and Lucknow will be the two important seats so that history is not wiped out and policy is not changed. (1975) 2 SCC 671 .

  • Killer Khilats, Part 1: Legends of Poisoned ªrobes of Honourº in India
    Folklore 112 (2001):23± 45 RESEARCH ARTICLE Killer Khilats, Part 1: Legends of Poisoned ªRobes of Honourº in India Michelle Maskiell and Adrienne Mayor Abstract This article presents seven historical legends of death by Poison Dress that arose in early modern India. The tales revolve around fears of symbolic harm and real contamination aroused by the ancient Iranian-in¯ uenced customs of presenting robes of honour (khilats) to friends and enemies. From 1600 to the early twentieth century, Rajputs, Mughals, British, and other groups in India participated in the development of tales of deadly clothing. Many of the motifs and themes are analogous to Poison Dress legends found in the Bible, Greek myth and Arthurian legend, and to modern versions, but all seven tales display distinc- tively Indian characteristics. The historical settings reveal the cultural assump- tions of the various groups who performed poison khilat legends in India and display the ambiguities embedded in the khilat system for all who performed these tales. Introduction We have gathered seven ª Poison Dressº legends set in early modern India, which feature a poison khilat (Arabic, ª robe of honourº ). These ª Killer Khilatº tales share plots, themes and motifs with the ª Poison Dressº family of folklore, in which victims are killed by contaminated clothing. Because historical legends often crystallise around actual people and events, and re¯ ect contemporary anxieties and the moral dilemmas of the tellers and their audiences, these stories have much to tell historians as well as folklorists. The poison khilat tales are intriguing examples of how recurrent narrative patterns emerge under cultural pressure to reveal fault lines within a given society’s accepted values and social practices.

  • Indian National Congress and Eka Movement in Awadh*
    International Journal of Science and Research (IJSR) ISSN: 2319-7064 Impact Factor (2018): 7.426 Indian National Congress and Eka Movement in Awadh* Amit Kumar Tiwari Research Scholar, Center For Gandhian Thought and Peace Studies, Central University of Gujarat, Gandhinagar, Sector- 29, 382029 Abstract: Awadh region has glorious historical background. In ancient India, Awadh region came under KaushalJanapada. According to Hindu mythology, Rama was the king of KaushalJanapada whose capital was Ayodhya which is now in Faizabad district of Utter Pradesh. This area was the heartland of Saltanat kings as well as Mughal kings because of its agriculture production. In later Mughal period, Awadhbecame independent state.Dalhousie conquered Awadh in 1856. And, after British control, a series of peasant’s movement started in different parts of Awadh. After the establishment of Indian National Congress, peasant movements got new dimension. The discourse on peasant movements have been discussed by mainly three school of thoughts in India such as Marxist perspective, nationalist perspective and subaltern perspective. Therefore, this paper is an attempt to understand Eka movement under the umbrella of Indian national Congress. Keywords: Peasant‟s movements, Indian National Congress, KisanSabha, Eka movement *The present paper is a chapter of my M.Phil.dissertation ‘Indian National Congress and Peasant Movements; A Study of Eka Movement in Awadh’ Central University of Gujarat, 2016.

  • 91 Chapter-I the AWADH REGION Growth and Development Of
    91 Chapter-I THE AWADH REGION Growth and Development of Tourism As discussed in the foregoing, the Awadh Region has been attracting pilgrims and devotees from time immemorial (Al Ichin,'70; Younger,'70). The legend of Rama and the Buddha has been a major pull factor, particularly to the holy centres associated with these personalities. Ayodhya stands out boldly on the religious map of India. Classed as one of the seven sacred cities of the Hindus (Saptpuri) it spontaneously acquires a national importance, and hence people have been travelling to this land from far off places to pay their homage to Lord Rama. The sojourn of the Buddha for the major part remained confined to the forest groves of the Tarai in eastern U.P. and some sequestered areas (Dutta and Bajpai,'56). However, none of these places could develop as a regular centre of visitation except Sravasti, in the study area, which was no better than a subdued wilderpess until the late 1960's when it began to be groomed as a Buddhist resort. Pilgrimages are marked by the concept of austerity and simplicity which often come as an antithesis to the concept of modern tourism. The Hindu scheme of Tirthas (pilgrimages) encompasses travel as an essential ingredient but it also discourages developed travel comforts in accommodation and transport and the like, which are an essential part of modern tourism. Thus, it is easy to discover that only the basic and minimum travel facilities were organised by the Hindu missionaries, both enroute and at the pilgrim destination. 92 The dharamshalas, panda homestays, th.

  • Stratification and Role of the Elite Muslim Women in the State of Awadh, 1742-1857
    Athens Journal of History - Volume 7, Issue 4, October 2021 – Pages 269-294 Stratification and Role of the Elite Muslim Women in the State of Awadh, 1742-1857 By Naumana Kiran This paper focuses on stratification and role of the elite Muslim women in the State of Awadh during the second-half of the eighteenth, and first-half of nineteenth century India. It evaluates the categorization of women associated with the court and the division of political and domestic power among them. It also seeks their economic resources and their contribution in fields of art and architecture. The study finds that the first category of royal women of Awadh, including queen mothers and chief wives, enjoyed a powerful position in the state-matters unlike many other states of the time in India. Besides a high cadre of royal ladies, three more cadres of royal women existed in Awadh’s court with multiple ratios of power and economic resources. Elite women’s input and backing to various genres of art, language and culture resulted in growth of Urdu poetry, prose, drama and music in addition to religious architecture. The paper has been produced on the basis of primary and secondary sources. It includes the historical accounts, written by contemporary historians as well as cultural writings, produced by poets and literary figures of the time, besides letters and other writings of the rulers of Awadh. The writings produced by the British travelers, used in this paper, have further provided an insightful picture and a distinctive perspective. Introduction The study of Muslim women of Awadh, like women of all other areas of India during the 18th and 19th centuries, is a marginalized theme of study in historiography of India.

  • Historians and the Great Revolt, 1857-59* Jitendra Kumar, M.A
    Historians and the Great Revolt, 1857-59* Jitendra Kumar, M.A. (F) History, University of Delhi. Abstract: The mutinies that took place on 10th of May, 1857 in Meerut and their marched to Delhi on 11th May and very soon the spread of the mutinies in Kanpur, Locnow, Jhansi etc. have been called as “Sepoy Mutiny” by the colonial official and British colonial historians. But after a few decades of the revolt, perception of the historian like John. W. Kaye was different in nature. An remarkable turning point came out on the notion of the revolt in 1909 when V.D. Savarkar published his work and defined it as the Indian War of Independence. While the celebration of 100th anniversary of revolt has brought a large number of researches and books on the topic by Joshi, Chaudhary and Sen ect. where they saw the revolt of 1857 into a new perspectives. Then the new kinds of historiographies ermerged by Mukherjee and Stokes in the late 20th century and works of Dalrymple, Yadav and Rajendran in early decades of 21st century presented the historyof the revolt in the very new perspectives that had been never written by the early historians. In his article, i will highlight the issues and concept of historiography that had been done both in the colonial India and independent India. The causes, concept and the nature of the mutinies that took place at Meerut on 10th May 1857 and soon the sepoy of the Meerut cotinental reached to Delhi and proclaimed 8o's year old Bahadur Shah Zafar as the Badshah (kingh) of Hindustan, can not only be understood by the writings that had been produced in the 19th century and early 20th century, whether they are John Kaye's History of the Sepoy War in India or V.D.

    Culture survival for the indigenous communities with reference to North Bengal, Rajbanshi people and Koch Bihar under the British East India Company rule (1757-1857) Culture survival for the indigenous communities (With Special Reference to the Sub-Himalayan Folk People of North Bengal including the Rajbanshis) Ashok Das Gupta, Anthropology, University of North Bengal, India Short Abstract: This paper will focus on the aspect of culture survival of the local/indigenous/folk/marginalized peoples in this era of global market economy. Long Abstract: Common people are often considered as pre-state primitive groups believing only in self- reliance, autonomy, transnationality, migration and ancient trade routes. They seldom form their ancient urbanism, own civilization and Great Traditions. Or they may remain stable on their simple life with fulfillment of psychobiological needs. They are often considered as serious threat to the state instead and ignored by the mainstream. They also believe on identities, race and ethnicity, aboriginality, city state, nation state, microstate and republican confederacies. They could bear both hidden and open perspectives. They say that they are the aboriginals. States were in compromise with big trade houses to counter these outsiders, isolate them, condemn them, assimilate them and integrate them. Bringing them from pre-state to pro-state is actually a huge task and you have do deal with their production system, social system and mental construct as well. And till then these people love their ethnic identities and are in favour of their cultural survival that provide them a virtual safeguard and never allow them to forget about nature- human-supernature relationship: in one phrase the way of living.

Greek city states had it. Lichchavi kingdom of northern India in the 6th century BC isa celebrated example of a republican system. In the modern world, this continues to be themost popular system in larger countries like US, Brazil, Mexico and India. In fact, the EuropeanUnion is a recent example of the idea of federalism being implemented at a trans-national levelto leverage its various advantages in the economic sphere. The concept was celebrated by political philosphers like Montesquie as “confederate republic constituted by sovereign city states”. The architect of Indian Constitution, Baba Saheb Ambedkar believed that fora culturally, ethnically and linguistically diverse and heterogeneous country like India, federalism was the „chief mark‟,though with a strong unitary bias. This understanding differed from what Mahatma Gandhi put forward in his speeches which advocated “Village Decentralization”. Hopefully through the establishment of Panchayati System and after 73rd& 74th Constitutional Amendment Acts, this thought of Bapu was also incorporated in our federal system. But with Globalization & Rise of Regional Political Leadership, the face of federal system has constantly changed with time.
