Abstract:

The years 1948-1952 were pivotal for the history of Bangladesh. The question of what would be the state language was raised by the people of this country. Muslim leaders in Pakistan, at the time, believed that Urdu should be the state language because it had become recognized as the cultural symbol of sub-continental Muslims. However, most of Pakistan’s population, the Bengalis of eastern Pakistan, to whom Urdu was a foreign language, considered it a ploy by the West Pakistanis to colonize East Pakistan. Protests erupted across East Pakistan after the then Prime Minister of Pakistan replaced B

Abstract:

Education plays a crucial role in the empowerment of women. Nearly half of the world's population is female, and women often face barriers to achieve equal opportunities due to the dominance of masculine ideologies. The objective of this study is to compare the gender-specific education status between two neighbouring subdivisions: Barasat-I and Barrackpore-II, in the North 24 Parganas District of West Bengal. Researchers conducted structured interviews randomly within 60 adults to collect data for the study. The study revealed that the Covid-19 pandemic had a significant impact on the educati

The Partition of 1947 resulted in wide scale migration of Urdu-speaking Muslims from India to East Pakistan. Although initially welcomed as muhajirs, the hospitality for Urdu-speaking migrants was short lived in the eastern wing of Pakistan because of their perceived closeness to the West Pakistani government. The war of 1971 found a section of the migrants pledging support to the West Pakistani army, which resulted in post-war hostility against the entire community. Their predicament was such that they were denied citizenship by both Bangladesh and Pakistan. The narrative of displacement and

Abstract:

An epidemic of any infectious disease is an invisible ruthless enemy that cannot be defeated by military, political, economic or ideological means. Humanity always reacts to such threats quite nervously and subconsciously tries to mythologize them, at least a little, in order to somehow psychologically protect itself from the real fear of imminent death. Since there is no rational defense against such a threat, people for the most part react in an irrational manner.The 19th century, almost the same as the previous centuries, «started» in epidemiological terms almost from the very beginning of

As one of the most marginalized groups, the Rohingya are compelled to endure abhorrent conditions within Myanmar. This paper examines in depth, within the framework of the Islamic solidarity paradigm, the social engagement, challenges, and experiences of the Rohingya Muslims presently residing in Pakistan. Because of institutionalized bigotry, the Rohingya population is compelled to seek refuge in several foreign nations, such as Malaysia, Bangladesh, and Pakistan. This issue is a pervasive global dilemma that is progressively worsening. They are particularly burdened with many obstacles in Pa

Abstract The British Raj formally ended on 15 August 1947. In the years following the bifurcation of British India into Hindu-majority India and Muslim-majority Pakistan, between 11 and 18 million people migrated to escape sectarian pogroms at the hands of the majority population. By 1950, many South Asian – specifically Bengali – refugees were radically critiquing decolonization. Theorizing from their experiences of proletarianization, East Bengali refugees argued that decolonization had been incomplete. The postcolonial Indian state was a neocolonial state allied to Western imperialism. Refu

Education of women in particular is important for the development of a society. This is not only because women constitute half of the population and therefore they naturally have a right to education but also because women’s education has far reaching impact on the society as a whole. India is a country with diversities inhabiting various ethnic, cultural, linguistic and religious groups. After Independence, much emphasis was given to women’s education, including Muslim women.
