Abstract:
This article argues that though communal riots bring different experiences for men and women, yet this reality does not seem to be recognized by post-riot justice mechanisms. Justice post-riots is viewed as a ‘blanket’ term for all the victims irrespective of their gender. In so doing, women’s everyday experiences seem to get pushed under the carpet. Drawing from feminist critique of the legalistic approach to justice, this article problematizes the understanding that there is only one singular, official version of truth in post-riot situations.

Abstract:
In 2002, the state of Gujarat in India erupted in extreme anti-Muslim violence. The sexual violence against Muslim women and girls was particularly brutal. Survivors bore witness not only to the violence and destruction but also to the intense sexual enjoyment of the Hindu rapists and rioters. My essay returns to the survivor testimonies of 2002 in an effort to rethink, on the one hand, the status of sexual pleasure/sexual violence in the riots and, on the other, the limits of feminist identification with the Muslim victim-survivors. I argue that sexuality was crucial to all the violence of 20

The discussion on Hindu-Muslim conflict in India has revolved around religious or ethno-nationalist explanations. Employing the Gujarat riots of 2002 as a case study, I argue that dominant (Hindu) nationalism is linked to the ideas of “race” and has its roots in Brahminical notions of Aryanism and colonial racism. The categories of “foreign, hypermasculine, terrorist Other” widely prevalent in the characterisation of the Muslim Other, are not necessarily produced due to religious differences.

Agriculture is one of the important sector of our Indian economy. Among agriculture various agricultural crops, oilseeds plays a major role by placing India at the 4th largest producer of oilseed in the world. Cultivation of oilseeds is done under 15-20 per cent of total area at global level (Kumar and Tiwari, 2020). Oilseeds group also considered to be one of the great sources of oil (soybean, groundnut, mustard, etc.) and protein (soybean). This study tried to analyse the trend in the area, production and productivity of soybean crop by fitting the exponential growth function. Further examin

Abstract:
During southwest monsoon season, the off-shore troughs along the west coast (WC) of India occupy shallow zones of convergence. These troughs frequently develop and decay off the WC extending from North Kerala to South Gujarat. They are typical in size, horizontal extent being of the order of 100 km and are discernible from just above the boundary level to about 900 hPa. They produce heavy rainfall over the coastal stations during active phase of the monsoon and vice-versa in weak phase.

Abstract. Past observations of O3 at urban, rural and lower free tropospheric sites in India have shown generally low values rarely exceeding 60 ppbv. We show that this can not be generated to all over India. Surface ozone (O3) concentrations are obtained from measurements in rural, urban and free tropospheric environments in January 2001 and 2002 as a part of Mobile Lab Experiments (MOLEX) conducted in western India. Elevated O3 from 70 to 110 ppbv (nmole/mole) are recorded during afternoon hours at rural sites in downwind of major industrial region of Gujarat adjoining the Arabian Sea. Repea

Abstract:
The reliability of estimates of reference evapotranspiration (ET0) using pan evaporation (Epan) depends on the accurate determination of pan coefficients (Kpan). Six ET0 models were evaluated for their usefulness using 33-year climatological dataset of a semi-arid region of the Gujarat state of India. The equations compared include Cuenca (1989), Allen and Pruitt (1991), Snyder (1992), Modified Snyder (Grismer et al., 2002), Orang (1998), and Pereira et al. (1995). The ET0 data, calculated using daily Kpan values from these equations, were compared to the Food and Agricultural Organization (FA

Arabian Sea Monsoon Experiment (ARMEX) 2O02 was carried out from mid June to mid August to study the presence of off-shore trough (OST) and embedded vortices. Four cases of heavy rainfall along the west coast (rainfall exceeding 12 cm in 24 hour) of India were recorded on 14-16 June, 20-22 June, 26-28 June and 7-10 August 2002. The heavy rainfal1 event of 26-28 June was due to a low pressure system that moved from Bay of Bengal across Madhya Pradesh to Gujarat and adjoining Rajasthan. The other three heavy rainfall events were associated with the off shore trough and /or off shore vortices.&#x

Incidence of ToLCD was estimated to be between 40 and 70% depending on the cultivars used. Infected plants exhibited symptoms consisting of leaf rolling, leaf curling, and yellowing typical of begomoviruses. Total DNA was isolated from a single affected tomato plant (2). Begomovirus infection in this sample was established by amplification of the expected-size 550-bp DNA fragment from this extract by PCR with degenerate DNA-A primers (3)
