    CENSUS OF INDIA, 1_901_. VOLUME XVI. N W PROVINCES AN D OUDH. PART I. REPORT BY R. BURN, I.e.s., SUPERINTENDENT, CENSUS OPERA TIONS. ALLAHABAD: PRINTED BY THE SUPERINTENDENT, GOVERNMENT PRESS. 1902. PREFACE. AT a time when official reports are being subjected to a rigorous pruning the production of a report extending to nearly 300 pages may be deemed to require some apology. My obje<>t in the following pages has been two-fold. In the first place, an attempt has been made to describe some general features ()f what may be considered the bewildering jungle of figures contained in the Imperial Tables, for, as the proverb says, it is often hard to see the wood for the trees. Secondly, the extent to which the results of the census are fairly reliable, and the methods of obtaining them, have been indicated as briefly as possible. Enumeration throws much extra work on district office:rs and their subordinates, and to them thanks are due for the successful manner in which it was carried out. The abstraction and tabulation were completed in seven central offices, each in charge of a Deputy Collector, and .six ofthese-Pandit Janardan Joshi, B. Pridamna Krishna, M. Lutf Husain, B. Tulshi Rama, B. Siva Prasada, and Qazi Khaliluddin Ahmad-completed their very trying work with a high standard of excellency. 'rhe heaviest . share fell to B. Pridamna Krishna, who dealt with it admirably, while Pandit Janardan Joshi and B. Siva Prasada ex:celled in devising methods of checking the work apart from those prescribed in the r.ules.

    Fiction Beyond Secularism 8flashpoints The FlashPoints series is devoted to books that consider literature beyond strictly national and disciplinary frameworks, and that are distinguished both by their historical grounding and by their theoretical and conceptual strength. Our books engage theory without losing touch with history and work historically without falling into uncritical positivism. FlashPoints aims for a broad audience within the humanities and the social sciences concerned with moments of cultural emergence and transformation. In a Benjaminian mode, FlashPoints is interested in how literature contributes to forming new constellations of culture and history and in how such formations function critically and politically in the present. Series titles are available online at http://escholarship.org/uc/flashpoints. series editors: Ali Behdad (Comparative Literature and English, UCLA), Founding Editor; Judith Butler (Rhetoric and Comparative Literature, UC Berkeley), Founding Editor; Michelle Clayton (Hispanic Studies and Comparative Literature, Brown University); Edward Dimendberg (Film and Media Studies, Visual Studies, and European Languages and Studies, UC Irvine), Coordinator; Catherine Gallagher (English, UC Berkeley), Founding Editor; Nouri Gana (Comparative Literature and Near Eastern Languages and Cultures, UCLA); Jody Greene (Literature, UC Santa Cruz); Susan Gillman (Literature, UC Santa Cruz); Richard Terdiman (Literature, UC Santa Cruz) 1.

  • A Historical Transition of Banjara Community in India with Special Reference to South India Nagaveni T
    Research Journal of Recent Sciences _________________________________________________ ISSN 2277-2502 Vol. 4(ISC-2014), 11-15 (2015) Res. J. Recent. Sci. A Historical Transition of Banjara Community in India with Special Reference to South India Nagaveni T. Department of History, Government First Grade College, Kuvempunagar, Mysore-570 023, INDIA Available online at: www.isca.in, www.isca.me Received 13 rd November 2014, revised 9th March 2015, accepted 25 th March 2015 Abstract An incisive insight into the literature on Banjara Community clearly indicates that ample literature has been produced by the Western and Indian scholars. Yet the treatment of the problem is exponential. Deep delve into the process of historical transition of the Banjara Community enables us to focus on various controversial issues and complexities of historical significance. Issues like Semantics, Historicity, Location, Ethnicity, Categorization, Caste-clan, Dichotomy and the community’s identity continued to gravitate the attention of the scholars and researchers alike. Lack of unanimity among the scholars and policy makers on these contentious issues has added perplexity to the puzzle. Ambiguous explanations given by the community historians have further complicated the clear-cut understanding of the process of historical transition. The antiquity of this Banjara Community is traceable to Harappa and Mohenjodaro. Its influence continued to spread and retain its relevance down the centuries to shape and reshape the course of history. There is a speculation about the group of Banjaras who mere concentrated outside India and called as Roma Gypsy, where their social history is not yet clear but proved to be of Indian Origin. This paper however strives to focus on historical transition within the context of India from 13 th Century A.D.

    Manjur Ali FORGOTTEN AT THE MARGIN : MUSLIM MANUAL SCAVENGERS Manual scavenging has been thrust upon a community who is then persuaded to be happy with its own marginality. In the Indian context, where division of labour of an individual is decided by his caste, this lack of economic alternative should be construed as a major principle of casteism. It is not just a ‘division of labour’, but also the “division of labourer”. It justifies manual scavenging in the name of ‘job’. Despite all the laws against caste practices, it’s most inhuman manifestation i.e. manual scavenging is still practiced in India. To deal with such a “dehumanizing practice” and “social stigma” the Union government passed a law known as Prohibition of Employment as Manual Scavengers and their Rehabilitation Bill, 2013. This Bill will override the previous one as it had “not proved adequate in eliminating the twin evils of insanitary latrines and manual scavenging from the country.” It is in this context, that this paper would like to deal with Muslim manual scavengers, a little known entity in social science. The first question this paper would like to discuss is about the caste among Indian Muslims despite no sanction from the religion. Secondly, this paper shall deal with Muslim manual scavengers, an Arzal biradari, including their social history. This section will try to bring forth the socio-economic context of Muslim manual scavengers who live an ‘undignified’ life.
