President's Corner Namaskaru, It gives us immense pleasure to inform that our final event - “Diwali” in 2010 was a grand success. We had over 350 people attend this event in San Jose. The entire KAOCA committee thanks the patrons who helped make this event a huge success. The event started at 4 pm with snacks, which included Masala Puri and Shira. The Entertainment program started at 5 pm and had a variety of programs including a couple of skits. The dinner followed at 8:15 pm and the menu included Valval, Ambe Upkari, Veg Kurma and Chicken Curry. The evening ended on a high note after the DJ music. It is time now for us – the 2010 KAOCA committee to move on and reflect back on the nostalgic journey which started late in 2009. On a personal note, when Sulatha and I were approached to head the committee for 2010, I was not very sure. However, my wife the charmer she is, talked me into it. “Yes we can” was her slogan and that triggered enough adrenaline rush in me to stand up and take the mantle. That is one side of the story. The other is the fabulous committee that made all of this happen.

A society which for centuries absorbed diverse people today appears insular and patochiai, and while it is one of the most prosperous slates in India, a fifth of its population lives below the poverty line. J Drawing on academic and scholarly sources, autobiographies, G U ARAT letters, literature and folksongs, Achyut Yagnik and Such Lira Strath attempt to Understand and explain these paradoxes, t hey trace the 2 a 6 :E e o n d i n a U t V a n y history of Gujarat from the time of the Indus Valley civilization, when Gujarati society came to be a synthesis of diverse peoples and cultures, to the state's encounters with the Turks, Marathas and the Portuguese t which sowed the seeds ol communal disharmony. 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. With Independence and statehood, the government encouraged a new model of development, which marginalized Dai its, Adivasis and minorities even further.

  • Caste and Communities of the Konkan Coastal Region : a Study of the Social Structure in Medieval Period
    Caste and Communities of the Konkan Coastal Region : A study of the social structure in Medieval Period Deepika Singh Research scholar, Centre for Historical Studies, Jawaharlal Nehru University, New Delhi, Email id: [email protected] Abstract: The present article attempts to make some contribution to the study of socio-economic condition on the western coastal part of India especially the Konkan coast in the medieval period. The economic condition of any period in Indian history cannot be examined without an understanding of the social life. I have tried to analyse the relationship between the social and economic life. I have examined caste and its phenomena as a basic form of social structure, which characteristizes Konkan society and their livelihood. The attempt has been made to point out the role of caste and communities in the social and economic sphere. Key words: Caste, Communities, Subcaste, Occupation, Land tenures, Konkan Introduction: The Konkan is coastal lowland adjoining the Arabian Sea in the north central parts of the west coast of India. Grant Duff pointed out that the Konkan extended along the coast from the Tapti to Sadashivgad and inland as far as the open plains of the Dakkan and he thus included in it parts of both Gujarat and Kanara and of the country above the Ghats. This latter he called Konkan Ghat Matha as opposed to tal-Konkan or the lowlands and he inferred that the Muslims were the first who set the name to the low country. Ferishta also said of the Konkan under the name of Tal- Ghat and Khafi Khan called it Tal-Konkan.1 The period covered in this study is, chosen in the light of a number of factors.

Coming from northern India to Hyderabad as sanyasis, male ascetics tracing lines of spiritual succession from guru to chela, Goswamis lived in maths, ostensibly without women or biological heirs. Goswami lineages established themselves as banking houses in Begum Bazar and leading Goswamis were termed Rajas because of their participation in the Nizam’s Mughlai administration and court culture. As modern educational and legal systems developed in Hyderabad and north Indian Goswami practices in British India began to influence Hyderabad’s Goswamis, they moved from Goswami law governing guru-chela successions and inheritances to Hindu family law governing marriage and inheritance. The nominally ascetic bankers and their dependents became householders following new occupations, developing an endogamous marriage network and self-identifying as a caste. Evidence about Gosains in Mirzapur and Varanasi strengthens the argument that educational and legal alternatives helped empower the women and children associated with the maths and develop a Goswami caste in Hyderabad.
