    A Study of Communal Conflict and Peace Initiatives in Hyderabad: Past and Present Conducted By COVA Research Team: M.A. Moid Shashi Kumar B. Pradeep Anita Malpani K. Lalita Supervision Mazher Hussain In Collaboration with Aman Trust, New Delhi 2005 Part I Communal Conflict and Peace Initiatives in Hyderabad Deccan: The Historical Context Research: M.A. Moid In the last decade or so, communalism has come be a major issue of concern when examining the Indian social fabric. Many efforts have been made to understand the various nuances of the problem. While the roots of present-day communal conflicts and riots could be traced to socio-economic and political causes, communalism has its roots in history. Colonialist policies, modernization, mass politics, competition, identity and culture are the different facets of this debate. In Hyderabad, Hindu-Muslim relations have a long history, spread over four centuries. The immediate history of the last five decades is particularly significant to understand the issue of communalism in Hyderabad. In the following pages, an attempt has been made to trace the roots of the communal conflict in Hyderabad. Some basic questions sought to be answered are: How did the Muslims arrive in Deccan? How was their settling down in the South different from their engagements in North India? How did the Hindus react to the new arrivals? How did the Muslims become a part of the Deccan and how did a composite culture develop? The study is divided into five parts. Part I is about the first Muslim kingdom of the South, covering Allauddin Khilji’s arrival and Mohammed Bin Tughlaq's involvement in the Deccan, up to the establishment of the Bahmani Kingdom and its achievements.

The earliest of them were read to me in London in 1896, when the writer was seventeen; the later ones were sent to me from India in 1904, when she was twenty-five; and they belong, I think, almost wholly to those two periods. As they seemed to me to have an individual beauty of their own, I thought they ought to be published. The writer hesitated. "Your letter made me very proud and very sad," she wrote. "Is it possible that I have written verses that are 'filled with beauty,' and is it possible that you really think them worthy of being given to the world? You know how high my ideal of Art is; and to me my poor casual little poems seem to be less than beautiful--I mean with that final enduring beauty that I desire." And, in another letter, she writes: "I am not a poet really.

    Pandey. Space and Culture, India 2015, 3:1 Page | 17 SPECIAL ARTICLE OPEN ACCESS Changing Facets of Hyderabadi Tehzeeb: Are We Missing Anything? Dr Vinita Pandey† Abstract In its historic evolution and development, the Hyderabad city has experienced many changes since its foundation as the capital of the medieval Kingdom of Golconda in the 16th century to its present status as the metropolis of a modern state. Each historic phase of development has significantly influenced its physical, social, economic and cultural growth. Hyderabad, under the influence of Deccan, Persian and indigenous culture, synthesised and evolved its very own Hyderabadi Tehzeeb. It truly represented the assimilation (yet uniqueness) of diverse cultures which inhabited Hyderabad. More than four hundred years later, HITEC city Hyderabad today presents a different picture. Whether it is its structural and spatial expansion, infrastructural development or its socio-cultural ethos, contemporary Hyderabad has evolved phenomenally and for many natives beyond recognition. Using ethnographic approach and secondary data, the paper introspects whether the City of Pearls has retained its unblotted tolerance and Hyderabadi Tehzeeb or has given up to the challenges of modern and globalizing times. Culturally, what is it that the natives of ‘Bhagyanagar’ irrespective of their caste, creed, gender, region and religion miss in modern Hyderabad. Key words: Culture (Tehzeeb), Hyderabad, Ganga-Jamuna Tehzeeb (Hindu-Muslim culture), Social Changes and Cultural diversity, India † Department of Sociology, Nizam College, Osmania University, Hyderabad, Telangana, India Email: [email protected] Pandey.

Nizam VII 26th April, 1917 “ I am pleased to express my approval of the views set forth in the Arzdasht (petition) and the memorandum submitted there- with, regarding the establishment of a University for the State, in which the knowledge and culture of Ancient and Modern times may be blended so harmoniously as to remove the defects created by the present system of education and full advantage may be taken of all that is the best in Ancient and Modern systems of physical, intellectual, and spiritual culture. In knowl- edge, it should aim at the moral training of the students and give an impetus to research in all scientific subjects. The fun- damental principle in the working of the University should be that Urdu should form the medium of instruction in higher education but knowledge of English as a language should at the same time be deemed compulsory for all students. With this objective in view, I am pleased to order that steps be taken for the establishment on the lines laid down in the Arzdasht (petition) of a University for the Dominions to be called the Osmania University of Hyderabad in commemoration of my accession to the throne”. 2 Alumni Association of Osmania University -Souvenir Alumni day - 29 December 2007 Back to roots...
