ISBN: 969-402-126-X (HB) To the late Uncle Hakim Jan of blessed memory More than a brother to my father, a benefactor of my family, whose mind, lit by the flame of virtue, was a miracle of equilibrium CONTENTS Preface ix 1 The Prescribed Myths 1 2 The Calamity of Errors 118 3 The Road to Ruin 175 4 The Burden of Responsibility 230 Appendix — A 248 Appendix — B 249 Appendix — C 257 Index 263 I PREFACE In this book I have scrutinized 66 textbooks on SoclalJSttidtcs, Pakistan Studies and History in use in the schools and colleges of Pakistan by students of classes 1 to 14. discussed their contents at full length, and explored the dimensions, implications and ramifications of their errors, faults and deficiencies. This study has taken its rise from a series of adventitious circumstances, not all agreeable or gratifying. In 1989-90 1 wrote a book on the Pakistani historian which contained one chapter of 82 pages, the longest of all, on the textbooks written by the historians of the country and in use in the schools and colleges. (The book has since been published by Vanguard under the title of The Pakistani Historian , and I advise the reader to look through it to understand why such books have been written by the country's historians). The typescript was handed over to a Lahore publisher on 25 March 1990, and two weeks later I went away to Cambridge for an 8-month spell of teaching and writing, with a firm promise from him that the book would be in the market before the year was out. But he bilked me and did not publish it then or ever. This unredeemed pledge led, in slow stages, to the expansion of the chapter on textbooks into the present full-length study. Blighted hopes do sometimes turn into cheerful prospects, if one has the requisite fortitude and resolve, and of course luck. My work has never offered me the leisure to write something for journals or newspapers. But the publisher's remissness was making me impatient, and when The Frontier Post offered to serialize this particular chapter. I raised no objections because die material combined scholarly research and topical interest to an uncommon degree. I then believed that a study of the books which every school- and college-going student reads will attract the parents these of students, i thought that in a country where the average sales of serious books arc abysmally low die wav to the attention of the educated reader lay through the columns of a national English daily. The original chapter thus came to appear in The Frontier Post in eleven long instalments on 17, 18, 19, 24, 25 and 26 April and 1, 3, 5, 8 and 9 May 1992. The newspaper also extended me the unprecedented courtesy of advertising the scries on the front page for several days running prior to their x Preface resident publication. I am grateful to Mr. Khalcd Ahmed, the editor, for this kindness. one Professor On 1 1 May the newspaper carried a letter from M.l.Haq, suggesting that I should "issue a corrigenda for the plethora of mistakes and mis-statements he has so diligently compiled, because the authors [of the textbooks] would not know the comcct answers themselves, and this burden of die martial law will continue to be carried by our textbook boards, God knows for how long". On the same day Mr. Khalcd Ahmed telephoned me to say that he had received several calls from his readers who now wanted to know the "real facts" of history after having read in my articles the myths and distortions contained in the textbooks. He asked me to write out a detailed statement rectifying the mistakes of the books and telling the true talc. My immediate reaction to this request was one of shock. 1 had already annotated each textbook, listing faithfully all the errors it canricd. but had limited my commentary to a very few remarks and an odd correction here and there. I had thought that the great majority of my readers knew their history and al ter perusing what and 1 had written would respond according to their temperament altitude to life: either laughing at the ignorance of the textbook writers or feeling concerned about what their children were being taught. And now I was being infonned by the editor of a major national daily that educated people, living in big cities and reading an English-language newspaper did not know where the textbooks had gone wrong, and they needed the telling of it. But a little reflection opened my eyes. These people who were asking for the correct version of history had been brought up on these very textbooks. Those few among them who were fond of reading had received their knowledge of history from a few popular or serious general books which had been written by the same professors who had put together these textbooks. It was had then that I realized the true proportions of the disaster which devastated the country. For me it was the moment of trudi. Mr. Khalcd Ahmed's injunction was reinforced by the advice given to me by my friend Mr. Najam Sethi, who publishes the Vanguard Books and edits The Friday Times. As ill luck would have it. when 1 received these messages I was engaged in a triple fight against the heat of Lahore to which I am not accustomed, a severe bout of influenza which had laid me Preface xi low, and ihe aftcmiaih of a serious accident of 7 May which had disabled me aurally for life. But you can't argue with your editor: it is not for nothing that only the royalty and the editors have arrogated to themselves the right to use the first person plural ("we") for their formidable selves. Anyway, the request was reasonable, and I owed it to my readers to supply the corrections to the errors committed by the textbooks. So, all handicaps notwithstanding, I sat down and wrote long correction slips and a short concluding lament, and this matter appeared in The Frontier Post in five instalments on 12, 15. 19, 20 and 21 June. By this time 1 had decided to publish this critique as an independent book. When I discussed its publication with Mr. Najam Sethi he made some admirable suggestions about recasting the first chapter, which were accepted and have improved it. 1 have thoroughly revised and expanded the matter which appeared as the second series in The Frontier Post: this forms the second chapter of the book. While revising, modifying and expanding the original material (Chapter I) and the corrective redaction (Chapter 2), I had time and opportunity to give more thought to the subject and to view it in a larger perspective. Chapter 3 and most of Chapter 4 arc the results of this cogitation. These additions were not published by The Frontier Post. Having studied, lived and taught abroad for most of my working life, I have learned to view the educational and intellectual needs of a society in ways which are foreign to the Pakistani mind. Therefore, in my academic innocence 1 expected that the publication of my study of the textbooks in a daily newspaper would or should produce the following results: First, a flurry and a ferment among the general reader, aroused by the low quality of our textbooks; and a more specific and indignant commotion among the parents on discovering what their children were being taught about national history. I was looking forward to a prolonged debate in the correspondence columns, which would include a harsh criticism of what I had dared to do. a discussion among the parents on how to dam up this flood of ignorance let loose by the textbooks, some protests in self-defence from the authors of these books, a riposte from the textbook boards in self-justification, even an angry rebuke from a "patriotic" Pakistani on my anti-national and subversive outburst. What actually happened did not amount to more than a whisper. A xii Preface total of four letters appeared, only two of which were relevant to the subject. All of them are reproduced in Appendix C in order to mark and preserve the totality of national response to such a vital subject.

  • Social Structure of Meitei-Pangal (Muslims) of Manipur Abstract Thesis
    SOCIAL STRUCTURE OF MEITEI-PANGAL (MUSLIMS) OF MANIPUR ABSTRACT THESIS SUBMITTED FOR THE AWARD OF THE DEGREE OF 3 a dot of |pl|U0S0pl|y SOCIOLOGY By RAJIYA SHAHANI UNDER THE SUPERVISION OF PROF. NOOR MOHAMMAD DEPARTMENT OF SOCIOLOGY AND SOCIAL WORK ALIGARH MUSLIM UNIVERSITY ALIGARH (INDIA) 2006 ABSTRACT In the present piece of research work, the basic institutions of Meitei-Pangal of Manipur have been analyzed from structural functional perspectives. Though old, the structural functional approach is a dominant sociological perspective. The background of the structural functionalism is found in the works of A. Comte, H. Spencer and E. Durkheim. Comte applied this perspective in his work, more prominently in his theory of organicism. H. Spencer also adopted organicism which led him to look at the social whole and the contribution of parts to the whole. E.Durkheim's interest in the social facts reflects his interest in the social organicism and their interrelationships and impact in the society. The major concern of these perspectives is the analysis of the structure and functions of a society that a social system needs to survive. Parsons is considered one of the giants of this perspectives. His structural-functional analysis becomes conspicuous when he says that - four basic conditions have to be met if any social system is to operate at all. These are : adaptation, goal attainment , integration and latency . These conditions are fulfilled by four institutions viz. economy, polity, kinship and culture. The Meitei-Pangal community of Manipur also meets these basic conditions of the social system . Islam is their religion.

His speeches and writings, which have al­ ways attracted considerable attention, are admired no less for their literary charm than for the soundness of his opinions,-closely argued, expressed in earnest lang­ uage and breathing conviction in every syllable. Sir Pherozeshah's public life began so early as in 1867, and during the long space of time that has elapsed since then there has not been any important problem, local, provincial or imperial, in the discussion of which he has not taken a conspicuous part. What a large part he has played in the p1,lblic life of his city, province and country, is evident from his many speeches as well as his varied and numerous contributions to the fress; which are now presented to the world in this volume. It would be presumption on my part to pass an opinion on the character of Sir Pheroze­ shah's pronouncements on public questions.

  • Title: Women of Agency: the Penned Thoughts of Bengali Muslim
    Title: Women of Agency: The Penned Thoughts of Bengali Muslim Women Writers of 9th 20th the Late 1 and Early Century Submitted by: Irteza Binte-Farid In Fulfillment of the Feminist Studies Honors Program Date: June 3, 2013 introduction: With the prolusion of postcolornal literature and theory arising since the 1 9$Os. unearthing subaltern voices has become an admirable task that many respected scholars have undertaken. Especially in regards to South Asia, there has been a series of meticulouslyresearched and nuanced arguments about the role of the subaltern in contributing to the major annals of history that had previously been unrecorded, greatly enriching the study of the history of colonialism and imperialism in South Asia. 20th The case of Bengali Muslim women in India in the late l91 and early century has also proven to be a topic that has produced a great deal of recent literature. With a history of scholarly 19th texts, unearthing the voices of Hindu Bengali middle-class women of late and early 2O’ century, scholars felt that there was a lack of representation of the voices of Muslim Bengali middle-class women of the same time period. In order to counter the overwhelming invisibility of Muslim Bengali women in academic scholarship, scholars, such as Sonia Nishat Amin, tackled the difficult task of presenting the view of Muslim Bengali women. Not only do these new works fill the void of representing an entire community. they also break the persistent representation of Muslim women as ‘backward,’ within normative historical accounts by giving voice to their own views about education, religion, and society) However, any attempt to make ‘invisible’ histories ‘visible’ falls into a few difficulties.
