Apart from writing for films, Kala has also written two novels: &#039;&#039;Almost Single&#039;&#039; (2007) and &#039;&#039;Almost There!&#039;&#039; (2013).&amp;lt;ref name=retreat&amp;gt;{{cite news|url=https://www.telegraphindia.com/1141019/jsp/graphiti/18925252.jsp|title=A writer&#039;s retreat|last=Sattar|first=Saimi|work=The Telegraph|date=19 October 2014|accessdate=15 September 2018|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20180915001659/https://www.telegraphindia.com/1141019/jsp/graphiti/18925252.jsp|archive-date=15 September 2018|url-status=dead}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Biography ==&lt;br /&gt;
Kala&#039;s father is a former bureaucrat who retired as a secretary for the [[Government of India]]. Kala spent her childhood living in central [[Delhi]].&amp;lt;ref name=retreat/&amp;gt; She attended [[Welham Girls&#039; School]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;IT_2010&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite news |last1=Chitkara |first1=Vanita |last2=Singh |first2=Ayesha |title=Off the beaten track |url=https://www.indiatoday.in/magazine/supplement/story/20100301-off-the-beaten-track-742078-2010-02-17 |access-date=5 April 2023 |work=India Today |date=1 March 2010}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
She wrote her first novel &#039;&#039;Almost Single&#039;&#039; from the idea that germinated as a result of some of the experiences that surrounded her. Kala said: &amp;quot;The rapid way in which the concepts of love and courtship are evolving and continue to do so. Also the fact that the ‘hunt’ was not necessarily the fiefdom of the male of the species.&amp;quot; &#039;&#039;Almost Single&#039;&#039; was a runaway bestseller and called &amp;quot;Bridget Jones in a saree&amp;quot; by the UK&#039;s [[The Independent]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=https://www.goodreads.com/author/show/1285945.Advaita_Kala|title=Advaita Kala|publisher=Good Reads|accessdate=15 September 2018}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; She quit the job of a hotel executive to write her next novel &#039;&#039;Almost There!&#039;&#039;, which was a sequel to her previous novel.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news|url=https://www.outlookindia.com/magazine/story/advaita-kala/237609|title=Advaita Kala|work=Outlook|accessdate=15 September 2018}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Director [[Siddharth Anand]] had approached Kala to develop the story of two suicidal strangers who fall in love into a feature-length script. Although a bit hesitant initially as she had not written a screenplay before, she accepted the offer. Intrigued by the premise of the story, Kala started sketching the characters over the next few days and began writing the script, which she found was different from writing novels.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;script&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|title=Advaita scripts a new chapter |url=http://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/tp-features/tp-metroplus/Advaita-scripts-a-new-chapter/article16049867.ece |author=Dundoo, Sangeetha Devi |work=[[The Hindu]] |date=28 September 2010 |accessdate=9 July 2017 |url-status=live |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20170710203806/http://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/tp-features/tp-metroplus/Advaita-scripts-a-new-chapter/article16049867.ece |archivedate=10 July 2017 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Anand helped her in understanding the process of writing screenplays and co-wrote with her.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;script&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; Kala wrote the first draft, approaching it like writing a book, and sent it as chapters to Anand, saying: &amp;quot;Writing a screenplay can also be a lonely process like writing a novel, but along the way when others get involved, it becomes a fun collaborative effort.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;script&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; The film, starring [[Priyanka Chopra]] and [[Ranbir Kapoor]], proved to be a commercial success.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|title=Anjaana Anjaani|url=http://www.boxofficeindia.com/movie.php?movieid=80|archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20161222231553/http://www.boxofficeindia.com/movie.php?movieid=80|archivedate=22 December 2016|publisher=[[Box Office India]]|accessdate=18 April 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
== Early life and education ==&lt;br /&gt;
Jain was born in India. He earned his [[Bachelor of Engineering]] in Electrical Engineering from A. P. S. University, Rewa, in 1972. He then completed a Master of Engineering in Computer Science and Controls at the [[Indian Institute of Science]], Bangalore, in 1974.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |title=Raj Jain |url=https://www.cse.wustl.edu/~jain/ftp/bio_jain.pdf |website=cse.wustl.edu}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; He moved to the United States for doctoral studies and received a Ph.D. in Applied Mathematics and Computer Science from [[Harvard University]] in 1978.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |title=Raj Jain |url=https://www.cse.wustl.edu/~jain/news/ftp/jitcar.pdf |website=cse.wustl.edu}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Career==&lt;br /&gt;
Jain began his career working at [[Digital Equipment Corporation]] in [[Littleton, Massachusetts]], from 1978 to 1994, becoming a Senior Consulting Engineer. He was also a member of the All-Optical Networking (AON) consortium, a collaboration between Digital, MIT&#039;s [[Lincoln Laboratory]], and [[AT&amp;amp;T]] that secured DARPA funding and initiated research into Dense Wavelength Division Multiplexing (DWDM) networks.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |title=Raj Jain |url=https://www.cse.wustl.edu/~jain/ |website=cse.wustl.edu}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
During his time at Digital, Jain was also a visiting scholar and honorary lecturer at the [[Massachusetts Institute of Technology]] in 1983–84, 1985, and 1987.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |title=Wayback Raj Jain |url=https://www.cse.wustl.edu/~jain/news/ftp/97wiupdate.pdf |website=www.cse.wustl.edu}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 1994, Jain joined [[Ohio State University]] as a professor in the Department of Computer and Information Sciences, where he remained until 2002. He co-founded Nayna Networks, Inc. in San Jose, California, in 2000, and served as its Chief Technology Officer until 2007.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;bb&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 2005, Jain joined Washington University in St. Louis as a professor of Computer Science and Engineering. In 2016, he was named the Barbara H. and Jerome R. Cox, Jr. Professor.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |title=Raj Jain |url=https://www.igi-global.com/affiliate/raj-jain/196711 |website=IGI GLobal}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Research==&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Congestion control and the DECbit scheme ===&lt;br /&gt;
Jain is best known for his work on network congestion management. He is a co-inventor of the DECbit scheme, a binary feedback congestion avoidance mechanism that was implemented in DECnet and later influenced standards for OSI, Frame Relay, and ATM networks.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;refname9&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite patent|number=5377327|title=Congestion avoidance scheme for computer networks|gdate=1994-12-27|url=https://www.freepatentsonline.com/5377327.html}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The scheme allows network switches to signal impending congestion to end hosts by setting a bit in packet headers, enabling hosts to adjust their transmission rates proactively. The seminal paper describing this work, &amp;quot;Analysis of the Increase and Decrease Algorithms for Congestion Avoidance in Computer Networks,&amp;quot; received the [[ACM SIGCOMM]] Test of Time Award in 2006.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;refname10&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=Analysis of the Increase and Decrease Algorithms for Congestion Avoidance in Computer Networks |url=https://www.cse.wustl.edu/~jain/papers/ftp/cong_av.pdf |access-date=2026-04-22 |website=ACM Digital Library |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
His work on timeout based [[congestion control]] influenced the design of the [[TCP congestion control#Slow start|slow start]] algorithm in [[TCP/IP]] networks.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;refname12&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=59330 A timeout-based congestion control scheme for window flow-controlled networks]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;refname13&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[http://portal.acm.org/citation.cfm?id=52356 Congestion avoidance and control]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Performance analysis ===&lt;br /&gt;
Jain is the author of &#039;&#039;The Art of Computer Systems Performance Analysis&#039;&#039; (John Wiley &amp;amp; Sons, 1991), which became a standard textbook on the subject. The book won the Computer Press Association&#039;s &amp;quot;Best Advanced How-to Book, Systems&amp;quot; award in 1991. The book introduced several widely used concepts and metrics, including [[Jain&#039;s fairness index]], a quantitative measure for evaluating the fairness of resource allocation in computer systems and networks.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;refname11&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite journal |date=1984 |title=A Quantitative Measure Of Fairness And Discrimination For Resource Allocation In Shared Computer Systems |url=https://www.cse.wustl.edu/~jain/papers/fairness.htm |journal=Digital Equipment Corporation Technical Report}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== ATM Networks ===&lt;br /&gt;
Jain served as the Editor of the ATM Forum Performance Testing Specification and made over 100 contributions to performance and traffic management. He led the work that led to the development and adaptation of the explicit forward congestion indication (EFCI) scheme for traffic management in ATM networks.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |title=Raj Jain&#039;s ATM Forum Contributions |url=http://www.cse.wustl.edu/~jain/atmf/index.html |access-date=2026-04-22 |publisher=Washington University in St. Louis}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== WiMAX 4G Networks ===&lt;br /&gt;
Between 2006 and 2009, Jain served on the Application Working Group at the [[WiMAX]] Forum, which was developing the first 4G standard. He was the editor of the WiMAX Systems Evaluation Methodology document and made over 20 contributions related to various aspects of WiMAX performance and scheduling. In 2008, he received the WiMAX Forum Individual Contribution Award in appreciation of his leadership.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |title=Raj Jain – Curriculum Vitae |url=http://www.cse.wustl.edu/~jain/cv_jain.htm |access-date=2026-04-22 |publisher=Washington University in St. Louis}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |title=Raj Jain&#039;s WiMAX Contributions |url=http://www.cse.wustl.edu/~jain/wimax/index.html |access-date=2026-04-22 |publisher=Washington University in St. Louis}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
The line passes through the western part of Outer Ring Road and passes through many major industrial areas, educational institutions and neighbourhoods of the city, such as Hebbal, BEL Circle, Goraguntepalya, Sumanahalli, Nagarabhavi, Mysuru Road, Hosakerehalli and Jaya Prakash Nagar.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Orange Line will have interchanges with the [[Blue Line (Namma Metro)|Blue Line]] at Kempapura and Hebbal, [[Red Line (Namma Metro)|Red Line]] at Hebbal, [[Green Line (Namma Metro)|Green Line]] at Peenya and Jaya Prakash Nagar, [[Grey Line (Namma Metro)|Grey Line]] at Sumanahalli Cross, [[Purple Line (Namma Metro)|Purple Line]] at Mysuru Road and [[Pink Line (Namma Metro)|Pink Line]] at JP Nagar 4th Phase.&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
=== Initial Planning ===&lt;br /&gt;
BMRCL began planning Namma Metro Phase-III in 2013, shortly after announcing Phase-II, which included the [[Yellow Line (Namma Metro)|Yellow Line]] and [[Pink Line (Namma Metro)|Pink Line]]. Later in June 2013 BMRCL partnered with RITES Limited to conduct a pre-feasibility study for each proposed corridor&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By 2016, BMRCL submitted its Phase-III proposal to the Ministry of Urban Development, which initially spanned 150.94&amp;amp;nbsp;km. However, following the feasibility the network size was reduced to 102&amp;amp;nbsp;km, with the remaining corridors being planned for [[Light rail|Light Rail]]. The proposed lines were&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Nagavara - Kempegowda International Airport&lt;br /&gt;
* Carmelaram - Yelahanka&lt;br /&gt;
* Marathahalli - Hosakerehalli&lt;br /&gt;
* Silkboard - Hebbal via KR Puram.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, in 2017 the Karnataka Government announced that the Silkboard - Hebbal line and the Nagavara - Airport line were merged to create the [[Blue Line (Namma Metro)|Blue Line]] and fast tracked to Phase 2A and Phase 2B.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 2018 the Karnataka Government officially confirmed Phase III with several modifications. Multiple new lines were introduced while some others were dropped. Following another round of modifications in 2020, only two lines were finalized to be part of Phase-III&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
* Magadi Road Toll Gate to Kadabagere line &lt;br /&gt;
* JP Nagar to Kempapura &amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=Bengaluru Metro Phase 3: Double-decker to have 5 ramps, loops in 9 areas for local traffic |url=https://www.deccanherald.com/india/karnataka/bengaluru/bengalurus-longest-double-decker-flyover-planned-under-namma-metro-phase-3-3798776 |access-date=2025-11-15 |website=Deccan Herald |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
In July 2020, RITES Limited was assigned to prepare the Detailed Project Report (DPR) work for Phase-III. RITES submitted the DPR to the State Government who approved it in November 2022. The final approval was received from the Central Government in August 2024 paving the way for BMRCL to start land acquisition and tender notification. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Double Decker Changes ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Tendering==&lt;br /&gt;
As of January 2025 BMRCL has issued tenders for Geotechnical Investigations and Detailed Design Consultancy (DDC). Once the Geotechnical Investigations are finished and finalized with the DDC BMRCL plans to release the Civil Work Tender. &lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;&#039;Siddharth Venugopal&#039;&#039;&#039; was an Indian film actor who has appeared in Tamil films. He made his lead debut in [[Gandhi Krishna]]&#039;s romantic musical &#039;&#039;[[Ananda Thandavam (2009 film)|Ananda Thandavam]]&#039;&#039; (2009), and also co-starred in [[Jeeva Shankar]]&#039;s crime thriller &#039;&#039;[[Naan (2012 film)|Naan]]&#039;&#039; (2012).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Early life==&lt;br /&gt;
Siddharth Venugopal was born on 28 November 1985 in [[Hyderabad]] to a Tamil family, but was brought up in [[Coimbatore]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web|url=https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=74_yg1Xs_qI&amp;amp;feature=youtu.be|title = சினிமா எனக்கு ஒரு பெரிய கனவா இருந்துச்சு! ஆனந்தத்தாண்டவம் சித்தார்த் I Aanandha Thaandavam Sidharth|website = [[YouTube]] | date=3 May 2018 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; He has a sister named Rathi. He did his schooling in [[Lisieux Matriculation Higher Secondary School]] Coimbatore, before moving on to complete a degree in [[information technology]] at [[Kumaraguru College of Technology]]. Following a brief stint in films, he returned to education in 2011 after signing up for an MBA at [[Graziadio School of Business and Management]] at [[Pepperdine University]], [[California]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;https://www.linkedin.com/in/siddharthvenugopal/ {{Self-published source|date=June 2022}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Career==&lt;br /&gt;
During his college days, Siddharth had taken up modelling assignments and acting courses and in October 2007, six months old in a Chennai multinational company, he got a call from director [[Gandhi Krishna]]’s office, after the director saw him in a print ad. After a six-hour audition, he was selected to play the lead role in the director&#039;s romantic musical &#039;&#039;[[Ananda Thandavam (2009 film)|Ananda Thandavam]]&#039;&#039;, a film adaptation of the [[Sujatha (writer)|Sujatha]] serialized novel &#039;&#039;Pirivom Santhippom&#039;&#039;.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.thehindu.com/todays-paper/tp-features/tp-cinemaplus/article3021341.ece |title=Cinema Plus / Cinema : New kid on the block |work=The Hindu |date=2009-04-10 |accessdate=2012-09-07}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The film was shot in India and USA for more than a year and featured him alongside [[Tamannaah]] and [[Rukmini Vijayakumar]]. However the film opened to unanimously poor reviews in early 2009, with a critic from Sify.com stating that the actor &amp;quot;can do little to save the film&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.sify.com/movies/ananda-thandavam-review-tamil-pclxbdhijfdfe.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150304203614/http://www.sify.com/movies/ananda-thandavam-review-tamil-pclxbdhijfdfe.html |url-status=dead |archive-date=4 March 2015 |title=Movie Review:Ananda Thandavam |website=[[Sify]] |date= |accessdate=2012-09-07}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Rediff.com felt that Siddharth&#039;s performance was one of the weaker aspects of the film noting &amp;quot;though he does his best when he&#039;s romancing his beloved, and there are sparks during emotional scenes, he seems to miss his cue a few times, making you wonder if someone with acting chops might have done a better job.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://movies.rediff.com/review/2009/apr/10/review-anandha-thandavam.htm |title=Anandha Thandavam not as good as the novel - Rediff.com Movies |publisher=Movies.rediff.com |date=2009-04-10 |accessdate=2012-09-07}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Siddharth, before the release of his debut film had agreed to star in another film produced by Aascar Ravichandran to be directed by newcomer Jeeva Shankar. The film titled &#039;&#039;Naan&#039;&#039; was to see him portraying the lead role with [[Rukmini Vijayakumar]] playing the lead female role, however due to the failure of &#039;&#039;Ananda Thandavam&#039;&#039;, the producer called off the project.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.hindu.com/cp/2009/04/10/stories/2009041050100400.htm |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090413162926/http://www.hindu.com/cp/2009/04/10/stories/2009041050100400.htm |url-status=dead |archive-date=2009-04-13 |title=Cinema Plus / Cinema : New kid on the block |date=2009-04-10 |work=[[The Hindu]] |accessdate=2012-08-18}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The film restarted with Vijay Antony&#039;s interception as producer in 2010, while the music director making his debut as an actor also took the lead role from Siddharth. The film was shot over two years, with Siddharth playing the second lead, amongst an ensemble cast also including actresses [[Rupa Manjari]], [[Anuya Bhagwat]] and Vibha Natarajan. The film released in August 2012 to predominantly positive reviews, with Siddharth gaining critical acclaim for his performance of the rich youngster, Ashok with a critic noting he is &amp;quot;impressive&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=https://www.sify.com/movies/naan-review-tamil-pcma3rehjhghd.html |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150419063647/http://www.sify.com/movies/naan-review-tamil-pcma3rehjhghd.html |url-status=dead |archive-date=19 April 2015 |title=Movie Review:Naan |website=[[Sify]] |date= |accessdate=2012-09-07}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

{{Alexander the Great series}}&lt;br /&gt;
The &#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;Alexander Romance&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039;&#039; is an account of the life and exploits of [[Alexander the Great]]. Of uncertain authorship, it has been described as &amp;quot;antiquity&#039;s most successful novel&amp;quot;.{{Sfn|Dowden|2019|p=757}} The book describes Alexander the Great from his birth, to his succession of the throne of Macedon, his conquests including that of the [[Achaemenid Empire|Persian Empire]], and finally his death. Although constructed around a historical core, the book is mostly fantastical, including many miraculous tales and encounters with mythical creatures, such as [[Siren (mythology)|siren]]s or [[centaur]]s.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last1=Pseudo-Callisthenes |title=The Greek Alexander romance |last2=Stoneman |first2=Richard |date=1991 |publisher=Penguin Books |isbn=978-0-14-044560-2 |series=Penguin classics |location=London, England; New York, NY, USA |pages=11–23}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; In this context, the term &#039;&#039;romance&#039;&#039; refers not to the meaning of the word in modern times but in the Old French sense of a novel or &#039;&#039;[[Medieval French literature#The Roman|roman]]&#039;&#039;, a &amp;quot;lengthy prose narrative of a complex and fictional character&amp;quot; (although Alexander&#039;s historicity did not deter ancient authors from using this term).&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Djurslev |first=Christine Thrue |title=The Cambridge Companion to Alexander the Great |date=2024 |publisher=Cambridge University Press |editor-last=Ogden |editor-first=Daniel |pages=452 |chapter=The &#039;&#039;Alexander Romance&#039;&#039;}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
It was widely copied and translated, accruing various legends and fantastical elements at different stages. The original version was composed in [[Ancient Greek]] some time before 338 AD, when a [[Latin]] translation was made, although the exact date is unknown. Some manuscripts [[Pseudepigrapha|pseudonymously]] attribute the text&#039;s authorship to Alexander&#039;s court historian [[Callisthenes]], and so the author is commonly called Pseudo-Callisthenes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In premodern times, the &#039;&#039;Alexander Romance&#039;&#039; underwent more than 100 translations, elaborations, and derivations in dozens of languages, including almost all European vernaculars as well as in every language from the [[Spread of Islam |Islamicized]] regions of Asia and Africa, from [[Mali]] to [[Malaysia]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Doufikar-Aerts |first=Faustina |url=https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1002/9781118635193.ctwl0072 |title=A Companion to World Literature |date=2020 |publisher=Wiley |isbn=978-1-118-99318-7 |editor-last=Seigneurie |editor-first=Ken |edition= |pages=1–11 |lang=en |chapter=The Arabic &#039;&#039;Alexander Romance&#039;&#039;: Mirror of a Bold, Clever, and Devout Prince |doi=10.1002/9781118635193.ctwl0072}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Some of the more notable translations were made into [[Coptic language|Coptic]], [[Ge&#039;ez language|Ge&#039;ez]], [[Middle Persian]], [[Byzantine Greek]], [[Arabic]], [[Persian language|Persian]], [[Armenian language|Armenian]], [[Syriac language|Syriac]], and [[Hebrew language|Hebrew]]. Owing to the great variety of distinct works derived from the original Greek romance, the &amp;quot;Alexander romance&amp;quot; is sometimes treated as a [[literary genre]], instead of a single work.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=Alexander romance {{!}} Ancient Greek Epic, Legends &amp;amp; Mythology {{!}} Britannica |url=https://www.britannica.com/art/Alexander-romance |access-date=2024-03-11 |website=www.britannica.com |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Plot ==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Nectanebo II]], the last [[Pharaoh]] of [[Egypt]], foresees that his kingdom will fall to the Persians and so flees to the [[Macedonia (ancient kingdom)|Macedonian]] court under the guise of the identity of a magician. In his time there, he falls in love with the wife of king [[Philip II of Macedon]], [[Olympias]]. Olympias becomes pregnant by Nectanebo, but his paternity is kept a secret. Philip develops a suspicion of an affair between the two, but Nectanebo allays Philip&#039;s suspicions by sending a magic sea-hawk to him in a dream. Alexander is born from this pregnancy, but while he is growing up he kills Nectanebo, who reveals Alexander&#039;s paternity as he dies. Alexander begins to be educated by [[Aristotle]] and competes in the [[Ancient Olympic Games|Olympics]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:8&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last1=Pseudo-Callisthenes |title=The Greek Alexander romance |last2=Stoneman |first2=Richard |date=1991 |publisher=Penguin Books |isbn=978-0-14-044560-2 |series=Penguin classics |location=London, England; New York, NY, USA |pages=5–7}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
After Philip dies, Alexander begins his campaigns into Asia, although the story is unclear with respect to the order and location of the campaigns. Once he reaches Egypt, an oracle of the god [[Amun]] instructs him where to go to create the city that will become [[Alexandria]]. The march into Asia continues and Alexander conquers [[Tyre, Lebanon|Tyre]]. He begins exchanging letters with the Persian emperor [[Darius III]], though the story now delves into more campaigns in Greece. The Persian march resumes and eventually Alexander conquers the Persians. He marries Roxane, the daughter of Darius, and writes letters to Olympias describing all he saw and his adventures during his conquests, including his wandering through the [[Land of Darkness]], search for the [[Water of Life (Christianity)|Water of Life]], and more.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:8&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Next, he proceeds to conquer [[India]] from which he writes letters to Aristotle, though he also receives an omen about his coming death in this time. He visits the temples of the sun and moon, and makes the [[Amazons]] his subjects. During his return, as he reaches [[Babylonia]], he meets the son of [[Antipater]] (the figure ruling Macedonia in Alexander&#039;s stead during the journeys of the latter) who was sent to poison Alexander. The conspiracy succeeds, and Alexander begins to die, though he names the rulers who will control the provinces of his empire after he is gone before ultimately succumbing to the poison. [[Ptolemy I Soter]] receives his body in the Egyptian city of [[Memphis, Egypt|Memphis]] where the priests order it to be sent to Alexandria, the greatest city he had built during his march. The work concludes by providing a list of all the cities that Alexander founded.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:8&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

[[File:Darielpass_1906.jpg|right|thumb|200x200px|The [[Darial Gorge]] before 1906]]&lt;br /&gt;
The &#039;&#039;Romance&#039;&#039; locates the Gates of Alexander between two mountains called the &amp;quot;Breasts of the North&amp;quot; ({{langx|el|Μαζοί Βορρά}}{{sfn|Anderson|1932|p=37}}). The mountains are initially 18 feet apart and the pass is rather wide, but Alexander&#039;s prayers to [[God]] causes the mountains to draw nearer, thus narrowing the pass. There he builds the Caspian Gates out of bronze, coating them with fast-sticking oil. The gates enclosed twenty-two nations and their monarchs, including [[Gog and Magog]] (therein called &amp;quot;Goth and Magoth&amp;quot;). The geographic location of these mountains is rather vague, described as a 50-day march away northwards after Alexander put to flight his Belsyrian enemies (the [[Bebryces|Bebrykes]],{{sfn|Anderson|1932|p=35}} of [[Bithynia]] in modern-day North [[Turkey]]).&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{citation |title=The Greek Alexander Romance |pages=185–187 |year=1991 |editor-last=Stoneman |editor-first=Richard (tr.) |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=vZmqYv_dSwMC&amp;amp;pg=PA185 |publisher=Penguin |isbn=9780141907116}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;{{sfnp|Anderson|1932|p=11}}&lt;br /&gt;

{{Main|Horns of Alexander}}&lt;br /&gt;
In the α recension of the &#039;&#039;Alexander Romance&#039;&#039;, Alexander&#039;s father is an Egyptian priest named Nectanebo who sports a set of ram horns. After his death, Alexander is described as &amp;quot;[[Horns of Alexander|the horned king]]&amp;quot; (βασιλέα κερασφόρον) by an oracle instructing Ptolemy, a general of Alexander, on where to bury him. This statement was repeated in the Armenian recension of the Alexander Romance in the 5th century.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:32&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Tesei |first=Tommaso |url=https://academic.oup.com/book/51697/chapter-abstract/419760236?redirectedFrom=fulltext |title=The Syriac Legend of Alexander&#039;s Gate |date=2023 |publisher=Oxford University Press |pages=137–146 |chapter=Alexander&#039;s Horns|doi=10.1093/oso/9780197646878.003.0010 |isbn=978-0-19-764687-8 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The use of the horned motif, representing the horns of [[Zeus Ammon]] to visualize Alexander stems from much earlier, originally in coinage depicting Alexander by his immediate successors [[Ptolemy I Soter]] of [[Egypt]] and more prominently the king of [[Thrace]] [[Lysimachus]] were the earliest produce coinage of Alexander with the rams horns.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:22&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Citation |last=Bowden |first=Hugh |title=Religion |date=2023 |work=The Cambridge Companion to Alexander the Great |pages=237–242 |editor-last=Ogden |editor-first=Daniel |url= |access-date= |publisher=Cambridge University Press |isbn=978-1-108-88834-9}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite journal |last=Anderson |first=Andrew Runni |date=1927 |title=Alexander&#039;s Horns |url=https://www.jstor.org/stable/282906 |journal=Transactions and Proceedings of the American Philological Association |volume=58 |pages=102–103 |doi=10.2307/282906 |issn=0065-9711 |jstor=282906|url-access=subscription }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The motif would be carried over into later Alexander legends, such as the Armenian translation of α and the &#039;&#039;[[Syriac Alexander Legend]]&#039;&#039;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:33&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Tesei |first=Tommaso |url=https://academic.oup.com/book/51697/chapter-abstract/419760236?redirectedFrom=fulltext |title=The Syriac Legend of Alexander&#039;s Gate |date=2023 |publisher=Oxford University Press |pages=137–155 |chapter=Alexander&#039;s Horns|doi=10.1093/oso/9780197646878.003.0010 |isbn=978-0-19-764687-8 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Fountain of Life ===&lt;br /&gt;
{{Main|Fountain of Life}}&lt;br /&gt;
Traditions about Alexander&#039;s search for the [[Fountain of Life]] were influenced by earlier legends about the Mesopotamian hero [[Gilgamesh]] and his search for immortality, such as in the &#039;&#039;[[Epic of Gilgamesh]]&#039;&#039;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Tesei 2010 417–440&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite journal |last=Tesei |first=Tommaso |date=2010 |title=Survival and Christianization of the Gilgamesh Quest for Immortality in the Tale of Alexander and the Fountain of Life |url=https://www.jstor.org/stable/43927088 |journal=Rivista degli studi orientali |volume=83 |issue=1/4 |pages=417–440 |jstor=43927088 |issn=0392-4866}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Alexander is travelling along with his company in search of the [[Land of the Blessed]]. On the way to the Land, Alexander becomes hungry and asks one of his cooks, Andreas, to get him some meat. Andreas gets some fish and begins to wash it in a fountain. Immediately upon being washed, the fish sprang to life and escaped into the fountain. Realizing he has discovered the [[Fountain of Life]], Andreas tells no one else about it and drinks the water for himself. He also stores away some of the water into a silver vessel, hoping to use some of it to seduce Alexander&#039;s daughter. Meanwhile, Alexander eventually reaches the Land of the Blessed but is unable to enter it. At the same time, he learns of Andreas losing the fish and questions him over it. Andreas confesses about what happened with the fish, and he is whipped for it, but he denies that he drank any and does not mention that he stored some, and asks Alexander over why he should worry about the past. At a later point, Andreas manages to use the water to seduce Alexander&#039;s daughter, who is enticed by the opportunity to drink from it, which she does and becomes immortal. Alexander learns of the miracle and punishes both Andreas and his daughter greatly: for Andreas is turned into a &#039;&#039;[[Daimon|daimōn]]&#039;&#039; of the sea and his daughter into a &#039;&#039;daimōn&#039;&#039; of the desert.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Crone |first=Patricia |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=uDBRDAAAQBAJ&amp;amp;dq=song+of+alexander+jacob+serugh&amp;amp;pg=PA67 |title=Islam, the Ancient Near East and Varieties of Godlessness: Collected Studies in Three Volumes, Volume 3 |date=2016 |publisher=Brill |pages=66|isbn=978-90-04-31931-8 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; This story was elaborated on in subsequent versions of the &#039;&#039;Romance&#039;&#039;, such as in the Syriac &#039;&#039;[[Song of Alexander]]&#039;&#039; and in the [[Talmud]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Crone |first=Patricia |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=uDBRDAAAQBAJ&amp;amp;dq=song+of+alexander+jacob+serugh&amp;amp;pg=PA67 |title=Islam, the Ancient Near East and Varieties of Godlessness: Collected Studies in Three Volumes, Volume 3 |date=2016 |publisher=Brill |pages=67–68|isbn=978-90-04-31931-8 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:111&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Reynolds |first=Gabriel Said |title=The Qur&#039;an and the Bible: text and commentary |date=2018 |publisher=Yale University Press |isbn=978-0-300-18132-6 |location=New Haven, CT |pages=463–465}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Land of Darkness ===&lt;br /&gt;
The original &#039;&#039;Alexander Romance&#039;&#039; contains a few statements that would develop into the fully-fledged myths of episodes in the [[Land of Darkness]], especially in versions of the &#039;&#039;Romance&#039;&#039; in Islamicate lands. In a journey that is directed towards [[Polaris]], the Polar constellation, he is to find the Land of the Blessed at the edge of the world which in &amp;quot;a region where the sun does not shine&amp;quot; (2.39).&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Casari |first=Mario |url=https://www.worldcat.org/title/794706981 |title=The Alexander romance in Persia and the East |date=2012 |publisher=Barkhuis Publishing &amp;amp; Groningen University Library |isbn=978-94-91431-04-3 |editor-last=Stoneman |editor-first=Richard |series=Ancient Narrative.

&lt;br /&gt;
== Sources ==&lt;br /&gt;
Two books appear to be the main sources used by the author of the &#039;&#039;Alexander Romance&#039;&#039;. One was a collection of Alexander fictions involving pseudepigraphical letters between Alexander and other figures such as [[Aristotle]] and adversaries of his like [[Darius III]], as well as dialogues with Indian philosophers among other material. The second was the &#039;&#039;[[History of Alexander]]&#039;&#039; written by [[Cleitarchus]] (c. 300 BC), now lost, containing an already mythologized account of Alexander. Historians also suspect the use of Greek-language Egyptian sources underlying traditions about the pharaohs [[Nectanebo II]] and [[Sesostris]]. By contrast, oral tradition did not play an important role.{{Sfn|Dowden|2019|p=757–758}} A strikingly close parallel to Alexander&#039;s relentless quest, though one limited by the constraints of human and mortal existence, is in the &#039;&#039;[[Epic of Gilgamesh]]&#039;&#039;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Tesei 2010 417–440&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Commentaries ==&lt;br /&gt;
The first commentary to the &#039;&#039;Romance&#039;&#039; was a German work titled &#039;&#039;Der griechische Alexanderroman&#039;&#039;, published by [[Adolf Ausfeld]] in 1907. In 2017, a commentary of the entire &#039;&#039;Alexander Romance&#039;&#039; was published in English by Krzysztof Nawotka.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Nawotka |first=Krzysztof |title=The Alexander romance by Ps.-Callisthenes: a historical commentary |date=2017 |publisher=Brill |isbn=978-90-04-33521-9 |series= |location= |pages=}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Editions and translations ==&lt;br /&gt;
The first modern English translation of the &#039;&#039;Romance&#039;&#039; was produced by E.H. Haight in 1955. The major modern English translation of the &#039;&#039;Romance&#039;&#039; is that of Richard Stoneman in 1991. Significant French translations include those of Tallet-Bonvalot in 1994, and Bounoure &amp;amp; Serret in 2004. An Italian translation was produced by Franco in 2001. In 2010, a Polish translation was published by Krzysztof Nawotka.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Nawotka |first=Krzysztof |title=The Alexander romance by Ps.-Callisthenes: a historical commentary |date=2017 |publisher=Brill |isbn=978-90-04-33521-9 |series= |location= |pages=ix, 273}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Between 2007 and 2014, Richard Stoneman published the first two volumes of an edition of the &#039;&#039;Romance&#039;&#039; in three volumes, titled &#039;&#039;Il Romanzo di Alessandro&#039;&#039;. Each volume contains one book of recensions α, β and γ of the Greek text and of the Latin text of Julius Valerius, each text having a facing-page Italian translation.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite journal |first=Brad L. |last=Cook |title=Il Romanzo di Alessandro, Volume II.

&lt;br /&gt;
==Transmission==&lt;br /&gt;
Throughout [[classical antiquity]] and the [[Middle Ages]], the &#039;&#039;Romance&#039;&#039; experienced numerous expansions and revisions exhibiting a variability unknown for more formal literary forms. Distinctively, and unlike other texts, none of the recensions (including in Greek) of the &#039;&#039;Romance&#039;&#039; can be considered canonical. Furthermore, translations were not merely so but were also typically variant versions of the text.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:9&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Nawotka |first=Krzysztof |title=The Alexander romance by Ps.-Callisthenes: a historical commentary |date=2017 |publisher=Brill |isbn=978-90-04-33521-9 |series=Mnemosyne.

In Europe, the popularity of the &#039;&#039;Alexander Romance&#039;&#039; resurged when [[Leo the Archpriest]] discovered a Greek copy in [[Constantinople]] while he was on a diplomatic missions. He produced a translation into Latin titled the &#039;&#039;Nativitas et historia Alexandri Magni regis&#039;&#039;, which became the basis of the far more successful and expanded version known as the &#039;&#039;[[Historia de preliis|Historia de Proeliis]]&#039;&#039;, which went through three recensions between the twelfth and fifteenth centuries and made Alexander a household name throughout the [[Middle Ages]],&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:11&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Stoneman |first=Richard |title=A history of Alexander the Great in world culture |date=2022 |publisher=Cambridge University Press |isbn=978-1-107-16769-8 |editor-last=Stoneman |editor-first=Richard |location=Cambridge, United Kingdom; New York, NY |pages=7–8 |chapter=Introduction: Formation and Diffusion of the Alexander Legend}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; being translated more times in the next three centuries than any other text except for the [[Gospel]]s.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |title=Latin fiction: the Latin novel in context |date=2004 |publisher=Routledge |isbn=978-0-415-14722-4 |editor-last=Hofmann |editor-first=Heinz |edition= |location=London |pages=140}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Another very popular Latin version was the &#039;&#039;[[Alexandreis]]&#039;&#039; of [[Walter of Châtillon]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:20&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Townsend |first=David |title=The Alexandreis of Walter of Châtillon: a twelfth-century epic: a verse translation |date=1996 |publisher=University of Pennsylvania Press |isbn=978-0-8122-3347-6 |series=The Middle Ages series |location=Philadelphia, Pa}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Before Leo, versions of the &#039;&#039;Romance&#039;&#039; were still known: an abridged 9th-century version of the much earlier Latin translation by [[Julius Valerius Alexander Polemius]], the [[Zacher Epitome]], achieved some popularity. In addition, in 781, [[Alcuin]] sent [[Charlemagne]] a copy of a text known as [[Alexander and Dindimus|&#039;&#039;Alexander and Dindimus King of the Brahmans&#039;&#039;]].

[[File:Byzantine Alexander Romance Vraka.JPG|thumb|The Alexander Romance in a 14th century Byzantine manuscript kept in the Church of [[San Giorgio dei Greci]], [[Venice]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
The most important Greek recensions of the &#039;&#039;Alexander Romance&#039;&#039; are the α, β, γ and ε recensions. There is also a variant of β called λ, and the now-lost δ was perhaps the most important in the transmission of the text into the non-Greek world as it was the basis of the 10th-century Latin translation produced by [[Leo the Archpriest]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:9&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Alpha (α) recension ====&lt;br /&gt;
The Recensio α, also known as the &#039;&#039;Historia Alexandri Magni&#039;&#039;, is the oldest and can be dated to the 3rd century AD. It is known from one manuscript, called A. It was subjected to various revisions during the [[Byzantine Empire]], some of them recasting it into poetical form in [[Medieval Greek]] vernacular. Recensio α is the source of a [[Latin]] version by [[Julius Valerius Alexander Polemius]] (4th century), as well as an Armenian version (5th century).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:12&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Beta (β) recension ====&lt;br /&gt;
The β recension was composed between 300 and 550 AD. It rephrases much material in α and also adds new material to it. Compared to α, it lacks the end of Book I and the first six chapters of Book II. However, it contains the end of Book II, which is missing from α.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Citation |last=Stoneman |first=Richard |title=Alexander Romance |date=2018-02-26 |encyclopedia=Oxford Research Encyclopedia of Classics |url=https://oxfordre.com/classics/view/10.1093/acrefore/9780199381135.001.0001/acrefore-9780199381135-e-8245 |access-date=2024-10-29 |publisher=Oxford University Press |language=en |doi=10.1093/acrefore/9780199381135.013.8245 |isbn=978-0-19-938113-5|url-access=subscription }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== Other recensions (ε, γ, etc) ====&lt;br /&gt;
A combination of α and some material from β was used to create the ε recension in the 8th century. Furthermore, the β and ε recensions were combined to generate the much larger γ recension later still.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:12&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Stoneman |first=Richard |title=The Oxford encyclopedia of ancient Greece and Rome: Volume 1 |date=2010 |publisher=Oxford University Press |editor-last=Gagarin |editor-first=Michael |pages=62–64 |chapter=Alexander Romance}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
===Germanic languages===&lt;br /&gt;
==== English and Scots====&lt;br /&gt;
In medieval [[England]], the &#039;&#039;Alexander Romance&#039;&#039; experienced remarkable popularity. It is even referred to in [[Geoffrey Chaucer|Chaucer]]&#039;s &#039;&#039;[[Canterbury Tales]]&#039;&#039;, where the monk apologizes to the pilgrimage group for treating a material so well known. There are five major romances in [[Middle English]] that survive, though most only in fragments. There are also two versions from [[Scotland]], one sometimes ascribed to the [[Early Scots]] poet [[John Barbour (poet)|John Barbour]], which exists only in a sixteenth-century printing; and a [[Middle Scots]] version from 1499: &lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;[[King Alisaunder]]&#039;&#039; from {{circa}} 1275.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;In medieval orthography, &amp;quot;king&amp;quot; could be &amp;quot;kyng&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;Alisaunder&amp;quot; could be &amp;quot;Alysaunder&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
*The &#039;&#039;[[Romance of Alisaunder]]&#039;&#039; (or &#039;&#039;Alexander of Macedon&#039;&#039;), sometimes referred to as &#039;&#039;Alexander A&#039;&#039;, is a fragment of 1247 lines written in [[alliterative verse]]. It was probably written between 1340 and 1370, soon before the beginning of the [[Alliterative Revival]], of which it is believed to be one of the oldest remaining poems. It has been preserved in a school notebook dating from 1600. Alexander A deals with the begetting of Alexander by [[Nectanebo II]] (Nectanebus), his birth, and his early years, and ends with the midst of the account of Philip&#039;s siege of [[Byzantium]]. It is likely that the source for this fragment has been the I&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt;-recension of the &#039;&#039;[[Historia de Preliis]]&#039;&#039;. Beside that it has been expanded with additional material taken from [[Paulus Orosius]]&#039;s &#039;&#039;Historiae adversum paganos&#039;&#039;, the adverse remarks, which are typical of Orosius, however have been omitted by the poet, whose main concern is Alexander&#039;s heroic conduct.&lt;br /&gt;
*&#039;&#039;[[Alexander and Dindimus]]&#039;&#039;, sometimes referred to as &#039;&#039;Alexander B&#039;&#039;, is also written in alliterative verse. This fragment is found in the {{Interlanguage link|Bodley 264|it|3=Manoscritto Bodley 264|lt=MS Bodley 264}} and consists of five letters which are passed between Alexander and Dindimus, who is the king of the [[Brahmin]]s, a people of philosophers who shun all worldly lusts, ambitions and entertainments. In this respect their way of life resembles the ideal of an aescetic life, which was also preached by medieval monastic orders, such as the Franciscans. The source of Alexander B again is the I&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt;-recension of the &#039;&#039;Historia de Preliis&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
*The &#039;&#039;[[Wars of Alexander]]&#039;&#039;, sometimes referred to as &#039;&#039;Alexander C&#039;&#039;, is the longest of the alliterative versions of the Middle English Alexander Romances. It goes back to the I&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;3&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt;-recension of the &#039;&#039;Historia de Preliis&#039;&#039; and can be found in the MS Ashmole 44 and in the Dublin Trinity College MS 213. Although both manuscripts are incomplete they supplement each other fairly well. In this version much space is given to letters and prophecies, which often bear a moralizing and philosophical tenor. The letters are an integral part of the Pseudo-Callisthenes tradition. The dominant theme is pride, which inevitably results in the downfall of kings. In &#039;&#039;The Wars of Alexander&#039;&#039; the hero is endowed with superhuman qualities, which shows in the romance insofar as his enemies fall to him by the dozens and he is always at the center of action.&lt;br /&gt;

=== Georgian ===&lt;br /&gt;
Though Georgian versions of the &#039;&#039;Alexander Romance&#039;&#039; have not survived, that they existed is known; it is thought that two versions existed. The earlier came into existence between the fourth and seventh centuries and its influence is detectable in extant Georgian texts such as [[Conversion of Kartli (chronicle)|&#039;&#039;The Conversion of Kartli&#039;&#039;]] chronicles and in &#039;&#039;The Life of Kings&#039;&#039;. The second was produced sometime between the ninth to twelfth centuries, and fragments of it were kept by the chronicler of [[David IV of Georgia|David the Builder]] and by a [[Mongols|Mongolian]]-era Georgian chronicler. Legends of Alexander would continue to influence varieties of Georgian literature from the twelfth to fourteenth centuries. Later, in the eighteenth century, the 18th-century king [[Archil of Imereti]] would produce a translation of a Serbian or Russian &#039;&#039;Alexander Romance&#039;&#039; into Georgian, and this one has survived.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite journal |last=Gogoladze |first=Andro |date=2018 |title=THE MYTH OF ALEXANDER THE GREAT IN MEDIEVAL GEORGIAN CHRONICLES |url=https://www.ceeol.com/search/article-detail?id=679746 |journal=&amp;amp;#201;tudes Balkaniques |language=English |issue=2 |pages=285–313 |issn=0324-1645}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Plot==&lt;br /&gt;
{{Long plot|date=October 2025}}&lt;br /&gt;
The film begins with narrator Saleem Sinai describing his birth at the exact [[Independence Day (India)|moment of Indian independence]]. His narrative then jumps back to 1917 Kashmir where his grandfather Dr. Aadam Aziz goes to the Ghani mansion to assess the landlord&#039;s sick daughter Nasim, whom the doctor eventually marries. Then the film jumps to [[Agra]] in 1942, where Saleem describes his grandfather as contracting a &#039;disease of optimism&#039; of those times and being an ardent supporter of politician Mian Abdullah. Abdullah is assassinated returning from a party with his secretary Nadir Khan, but Nadir flees to Dr. Aziz&#039;s house where Aziz shelters him in his cellar. Aziz and Nasim have three daughters, Alia, Mumtaz and Emerald, and during Nadir&#039;s stay Mumtaz develops a bond with him resulting in their private marriage. Soon the marriage is broken up when General Zulfikar learns of his presence in the cellar.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Devastated by the divorce, Mumtaz finds solace in the arms of wealthy entrepreneur Ahmed Sinai. The two marry and move to Bombay where they buy a villa from wealthy Englishman William Methwold, and Mumtaz takes up a new name, Amina Sinai. At the villa an accordionist, Wee Willie Winkie and his wife, used to come to sing and entertain and it transpires that the wife is carrying Methwold&#039;s child. Amina too is carrying a child then. Both go into labour on 14 August and give birth to boys at the moment of India&#039;s independence. However a nurse Mary, driven by love for her revolutionary partner, decides to switch the name tags of the two rich and poor infants, altering their fates. Mary is soon consumed by guilt and tries to make amends by deciding to become Saleem&#039;s &#039;&#039;ayah&#039;&#039; ([[nanny]]). Saleem, meant for poverty, has a life of privilege and Shiva, the one meant for fortune, leads an impoverished life on the streets. But things are not ideal for Saleem as his family pressures him to be different and special, and his father becomes an alcoholic. Saleem soon starts hearing voices which he realises he can control, and discovers these are the voices of the other Midnight&#039;s Children born in the first hour of independence, all of whom have special powers. The most prominent of them however are Shiva, Parvati-the-witch who is Saleem&#039;s only supporter, and Saleem himself with telepathic capabilities.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Wanting to make good use of his power he forms the Midnight&#039;s Children&#039;s conference, destined to serve the nation. But things go against him as an accident reveals that Saleem&#039;s blood type doesn&#039;t match his parents, revealing that he&#039;s not his parents&#039; true child. In shock they send him away to his aunt Emerald, now the wife of General Zulfikar and living in Pakistan. In exile Saleem learns about power, politics and struggle. He grows distraught by the divisions in the conference caused by the loss of innocence and the seeping of language and class differences amongst the members, and he disbands it. He is eventually recalled back to his family which has now moved to Karachi, but finds that his father has still not accepted him. Mary realises that the only way to make amends is by telling his parents about the swapping of the name tags at birth. Enraged by this, Saleem&#039;s father forces him to undergo an operation on his enormous and constantly dripping nose.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some years later the [[Indo-Pakistani War of 1965]] starts, during which Saleem&#039;s parents are killed when their house is bombed. Being injured in the bombing, he suffers a memory loss and wakes up in 1971. He is then enrolled in the army for his sniffing skills and becomes part of a crew sent to fight in East Pakistan which, with the help of India, [[Bangladesh Liberation War|becomes Bangladesh]]. Still suffering amnesia, he joins a celebrating crowd including victorious Indian soldiers led by Shiva, now a war-hero owing to his powers, and also some magicians from India including Parvati-the-witch. Recognising Saleem she calls to him, breaking his spell of amnesia, and introduces him to snake charmer Picture Singh, the magicians&#039; leader. On hearing of Saleem&#039;s tough journey Parvati takes him to the conjurers ghetto in New Delhi, smuggling him over the border in her basket of invisibility. They fall in love but Saleem, ambitious to do something big, leaves Parvati giving an excuse that he can&#039;t marry her because he is impotent. Realising the futility of his ambitions he returns but finds Parvati is expecting a baby by Shiva, whom she had summoned to visit her by casting a spell. Saleem says he will raise it as his own son and the baby, named Aadam, becomes one of many forming the next generation of magical children being born at the moment of the [[The Emergency (India)|declaration of Emergency]] by the [[Prime Minister of India|Prime Minister]] [[Indira Gandhi]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Gandhi, an ardent believer in horoscopes, is advised that the Midnight&#039;s Children have powers that are a threat to her supremacy, and so under the guise of a sterilisation programme she orders their incarceration. Shiva, leading the project and in search of Saleem, bulldozes the entire ghetto (killing countless) and captures Saleem. Under torture Saleem gives information about the other children, who are soon incarcerated and sterilized to drain their powers. The Emergency ends when the PM is defeated in an election, the children are all simultaneously released (the guards all having abandoned the complex into the night) and Shiva dies in a road accident as he attempts to flee the country pursued by authorities for his crimes. Saleem finds his son living with Picture Singh, who tells him Parvati died in the ghetto clearance. Reunited, the three have lunch at a restaurant where Saleem realizes the chutney he is eating is similar to the chutney his ayah Mary used to prepare for him in childhood. He obtains the address of the Bombay-based chutney company and they set out to find it. There Saleem and Mary, the company&#039;s owner, are overjoyed to be reunited and the film concludes as Saleem&#039;s son, Aadam, utters his first-ever word.&lt;br /&gt;

==Production==&lt;br /&gt;
In 2008, Mehta and Salman Rushdie decided to collaborate on a film together. At first Mehta wanted to adapt his novel &#039;&#039;[[Shalimar the Clown]]&#039;&#039;, but she eventually decided on &#039;&#039;Midnight&#039;s Children&#039;&#039; instead. Rushdie spent the next two years paring down the 600-page book into a 130-page script.&amp;lt;ref name=globe&amp;gt;{{cite news|last=Nolen|first=Stephanie|title=Mehta at midnight|url=https://www.theglobeandmail.com/news/arts/movies/deepa-mehta-films-rushdies-midnights-children/article2021293/singlepage/#articlecontent|access-date=17 May 2011|newspaper=The Globe and Mail|date=15 May 2011}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Rushdie told the BBC in an interview that he sold the rights to the film for $1.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news|url=https://www.bbc.com/news/av/entertainment-arts-20842926/salman-rushdie-s-midnight-s-children-is-adapted-for-film|title=Midnight&#039;s Children adapted for film|work=BBC News }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The casting process began in early 2010. For the role of the protagonist Saleem Sinai, Mehta wanted [[Imran Khan (Bollywood actor)|Imran Khan]], but his salary was outside of the film&#039;s budget. She decided to cast British actor [[Satya Bhabha]] instead after seeing video of him performing in a play.&amp;lt;ref name=globe/&amp;gt; [[Kangana Ranaut]] and [[Rani Mukerji]] were originally cast as Emerald and Amina, but both had to be replaced due to scheduling conflicts.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news|last=Lalwani|first=Vickey|title= Kangna quits Midnight&#039;s Children|url=http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2010-09-03/news-interviews/28245613_1_kangna-ranaut-choices-for-other-characters-deepa-mehta|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120503103500/http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2010-09-03/news-interviews/28245613_1_kangna-ranaut-choices-for-other-characters-deepa-mehta|url-status=dead|archive-date=3 May 2012|access-date=9 April 2011|newspaper=[[The Times of India]]|date=3 September 2010}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; [[Irrfan Khan]] was also forced to pull out due to conflicts with &#039;&#039;[[Life of Pi (film)|Life of Pi]]&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|title=No new films for Irrfan Khan!|url=http://www.hindustantimes.com/No-new-films-for-Irrfan-Khan/Article1-679341.aspx|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110405124321/http://www.hindustantimes.com/No-new-films-for-Irrfan-Khan/Article1-679341.aspx|url-status=dead|archive-date=5 April 2011|work=Hindustan Times|access-date=9 April 2011}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; and [[Nandita Das]] opted out of the film after she had her first child.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news|last=Jha|first=Subhash|title=Nandita opts out Midnight&#039;s Children|url=http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2011-02-23/news-interviews/28625641_1_nandita-das-guest-appearance-deepa-mehta-s-water|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120503103506/http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2011-02-23/news-interviews/28625641_1_nandita-das-guest-appearance-deepa-mehta-s-water|url-status=dead|archive-date=3 May 2012|access-date=9 April 2011|newspaper=[[The Times of India]]|date=23 February 2011}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; [[Rahul Bose]] (who had earlier been slated to play Saleem in the [[BBC]]&#039;s aborted version of the novel) was selected for the role of Emerald&#039;s husband Zulfikar and [[Shabana Azmi]] was cast as Saleem&#039;s grandmother Naseem.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |title= Step across this line: collected nonfiction 1992–2002 |url= https://archive.org/details/stepacrossthisli00rush |url-access= registration |last= Rushdie |first= Salman |author-link= Salman Rushdie |year= 2002 |publisher= Random House |isbn= 978-0-679-46334-4 |page= [https://archive.org/details/stepacrossthisli00rush/page/77 77]}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Principal shooting began in February 2011 in [[Colombo]], [[Sri Lanka]] as Mehta feared protests by [[Islamic fundamentalism|Muslim fundamentalists]] if the film was shot in [[Pakistan]] and by Indian National Congress &amp;amp; Gandhi family loyalists&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite news|url=https://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/film/film-news/9533300/Film-adaptation-of-Midnights-Children-may-never-be-screened-in-India.html|title=Film adaptation of Midnight&#039;s Children may never be screened in India|work=The Daily Telegraph|access-date=24 July 2017|language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; if it was made in Mumbai.&amp;lt;ref name=globe/&amp;gt; Cast members had secrecy clauses added to their contracts to help keep the production quiet. Production design was handled by Mehta&#039;s brother [[Dilip Mehta]]. Under his direction, authentic [[Delhi]]-style furniture, props and costumes were shipped in from India. Shooting was briefly interrupted when [[Iran]] complained to the Sri Lanka government about the film and the crew was ordered to halt production. Mehta appealed to President [[Mahinda Rajapaksa]] who agreed to let filming continue. &#039;&#039;Winds of Change&#039;&#039; was the working title of the film during the shooting. Filming lasted a total of 69 days from February to May 2011. In all, 800 extras were used.&amp;lt;ref name=globe/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
After initial fears that the movie would not find a distributor in India, the distribution rights were acquired by the Mumbai-based company [[PVR Pictures]]. In India, the film was released on 1 February 2013 with minimal cuts owing to clever casting &amp;amp; script treatment by Mehta.&amp;lt;ref name=pvr&amp;gt;{{cite news|last=Ramnath|first=Nandini|title=PVR to distribute &#039;Midnight&#039;s Children&#039; in India|url=http://www.livemint.com/Consumer/barkkZy3fa6rTtgVbwvrnN/PVR-to-distribute-Midnights-Children-in-India.html|access-date=22 October 2012|newspaper=Mint}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=toi&amp;gt;{{cite news|title=Midnight&#039;s Children&#039; to release Feb 1 in India|url=http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2012-12-25/news-interviews/35998846_1_midnight-s-children-midnight-s-children-anupam-kher|archive-url=https://archive.today/20130126061921/http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2012-12-25/news-interviews/35998846_1_midnight-s-children-midnight-s-children-anupam-kher|url-status=dead|newspaper=[[The Times of India]]|archive-date=2013-01-26}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; &amp;quot;Deepa Mehta didn&#039;t want to draw any attention to Sarita Chowdhary who plays Mrs Gandhi but looks nothing like her.

==Critical reception==&lt;br /&gt;
Nishi Tiwari for [[Rediff.com]] gave 3 out of 5 stars and said: &amp;quot;&#039;&#039;Midnight&#039;s Children&#039;&#039; is a must watch for people who’ve yearned to experience Salman Rushdie iconic storytelling in a more accessible format.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Midnight&#039;s Children Review&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.rediff.com/movies/review/review-midnight-s-children-is-magical/20130201.htm| title=Review: Midnight&#039;s Children is magical, a must watch | author=Nishi Tiwari | work=Rediff.com | access-date=1 February 2013}}{{Rating|3|5}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; On [[Rotten Tomatoes]] it has a 41% rating based on 59 reviews. The website&#039;s critical consensus states that &amp;quot;Though &#039;&#039;Midnight&#039;s Children&#039;&#039; is beautiful to look at and poignant in spots, its script is too indulgent and Deepa Mehta&#039;s direction, though ambitious, fails to bring the story together cohesively.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url= http://www.rottentomatoes.com/m/midnights_children/ |title=Midnight&#039;s Children |work= [[Rotten Tomatoes]] |publisher= [[Fandango Media]] |access-date=5 April 2014}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; [[Claudia Puig]] of [[USA Today]] wrote: &amp;quot;There are some beautiful moments and some decent performances, but it&#039;s also something of a slog and ultimately fails to engage on an emotional level&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |date=2013-05-09 |author=Claudia Puig |author-link=Claudia Puig | title=Wake up to &#039;Midnight&#039;s Children&#039; |work=[[USA Today]] | url=https://eu.usatoday.com/story/life/movies/2013/05/09/midnights-children-review/2107067/ }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Liam Lacy of [[The Globe and Mail]] called it &amp;quot;Watchable without ever feeling essential.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news | date=2 November 2012 | last1=Lacey | first1=Liam | newspaper=[[The Globe and Mail]] | title=Review: Midnight&#039;s Children: Deepa Mehta captures the scope of Salman Rushdie&#039;s tale but not its spirit | url=https://www.theglobeandmail.com/arts/film/film-reviews/midnights-children-deepa-mehta-captures-the-scope-of-salman-rushdies-tale-but-not-its-spirit/article4823931/ }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;div&gt;{{Short description|Prehistoric Rock Art}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The &#039;&#039;&#039;Konkan geoglyphs&#039;&#039;&#039;, sometimes called &#039;&#039;&#039;Konkan Petroglyphs&#039;&#039;&#039;, are a form of prehistoric rock art found along the [[Konkan]] coast of India, particularly in [[Maharashtra]] and [[Goa]].&amp;lt;ref name=:0&amp;gt;{{Cite web |last=Centre |first=UNESCO World Heritage |title=Geoglyphs of Konkan Region of India |url=https://whc.unesco.org/en/tentativelists/6605/ |access-date=2024-11-19 |website=UNESCO World Heritage Centre |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; They consist of carvings on [[laterite]] plateaus (&#039;&#039;saḍā&#039;&#039;) and are believed to date back 12,000 years&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:0&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=:1&amp;gt;{{Cite web |date=2022-12-26 |title=Ratnagiri&#039;s pre-historic rock art: Why a proposed oil refinery has experts worried |url=https://indianexpress.com/article/explained/explained-culture/ratnagiri-geoglyphs-8344954/ |access-date=2024-11-19 |website=The Indian Express |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Description ==&lt;br /&gt;
These carvings showcase animals like elephants, tigers, rhinoceroses, aquatic species like stingrays and turtles, and abstract human forms.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=The Konkan Rocks |url=https://www.sanctuarynaturefoundation.org/article/the-konkan-rocks |access-date=2024-11-19 |website=www.sanctuarynaturefoundation.org |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; They provide insights into the environment, fauna, and human settlements of the [[Mesolithic]] to early historic periods.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The sites span around 70 locations with over 1,500 carvings recorded. Prominent locations include Kasheli, Rundhye Tali, Devache Gothane, Barsu, Devi Hasol, Jambharun, Kudopi and Ukshi in Maharashtra, and Pansaymol in Goa.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite news |last=Rongmei |first=Precious|title=What makes the Konkan petroglyphs so unique? |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/travel/destinations/what-makes-the-konkan-petroglyphs-so-unique/articleshow/94128204.cms |access-date=2024-11-19 |work=The Times of India |issn=0971-8257}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The geoglyphs’ artistic complexity and the absence of domesticated animals in the depictions suggest they were created by hunter-gatherer societies.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Preservation Status ==&lt;br /&gt;
These geoglyphs are currently on India&#039;s [[List of World Heritage Sites in India|tentative list]] for [[World Heritage Site|UNESCO World Heritage]] status.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:0&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; However, their preservation is threatened by developmental projects like a proposed refinery in Ratnagiri&#039;s Barsu area, which could damage the delicate carvings.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

After the reunion, Ravin comes back to [[Bhubaneswar]], Orissa, where he works as an engineer for [[Infosys]], and registers at &#039;&#039;Shaadi.com&#039;&#039;. After a few days of registering on the site, Ravin finds a girl named Khushi, a resident of Delhi, and an employee of [[Computer Sciences Corporation|CSC]], [[Noida]]. Ravin and Khushi start talking to each other over phone and soon become good friends. They become curious about each other&#039;s interest and find there are many similarities between them. After a few months of conversation over phone, they realise that they have started falling in love with each other, although they have never met face-to-face. Very soon, Raven is asked to travel to the [[United States]] for an office assignment. He is required to go to Delhi, where Khush lives, to board the international flight. Raven decides to go to Delhi one day earlier to meet Khush  for the first time, and spend time with her.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In Delhi, Ravin meets Khushi and her family including her mother and sisters and then starts his journey to the US. Even during his stay in the US, Ravin is constantly in touch with Khushi. After his return to India, Ravin meets Khushi once again. After sometime, Khushi&#039;s family visits Bhubaneswar and meet Ravin&#039;s parents. There, they decide the date of Ravin and Khushi&#039;s [[engagement]]. Both the families start preparing for the event. The engagement date was fixed on 14 Feb 2007. The reason behind this is Khushi wants to be Ravin&#039;s girlfriend and fiancée both on the Valentine&#039;s Day.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Just before the engagement, Khushi meets with a road accident and is hospitalized in a critical condition. Despite all medical attempts and prayers of Ravin, Khushi dies after a few days. The novel ends with Ravin&#039;s narration of his current mental condition. To Ravin, his life has become meaningless after Khushi&#039;s death and he has lost interest in almost everything. He feels &amp;quot;She died. I survived. Because I survived, I die {{sic|?|everyday}}.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Reception ==&lt;br /&gt;
The novel received positive reviews from critics. &#039;&#039;[[The Hindu]]&#039;&#039; in their review called the novel a &amp;quot;tear-jerker&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;The romance of a writer&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite news|title=The romance of a writer|url=http://www.thehindu.com/features/metroplus/the-romance-of-a-writer/article6639616.ece|accessdate=22 January 2016|work=The Hindu|date=27 November 2014|language=en-IN}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; &#039;&#039;MeriNews&#039;&#039; appreciated the writing style and innate beauty and wrote—&amp;lt;ref name=MeriNews&amp;gt;{{cite news|title=Book Review: I Too Had A Love Story|url=http://www.merinews.com/article/book-review-i-too-had-a-love-story/15752889.shtml|accessdate=22 January 2016|work=MeriNews|archive-date=28 January 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160128085844/http://www.merinews.com/article/book-review-i-too-had-a-love-story/15752889.shtml|url-status=dead}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;Along with the innate beauty of their love story, the expression of the subtle emotions in the most simple and lucid way makes it special. . . The writer has summed up the essence of his story in the most appealing terms.&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;[[The Viewspaper]]&#039;&#039; reviewer Savrina Kapoor wrote—&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;The Viewspaper&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite news|title=I Too Had A Love Story : Book Review|url=http://theviewspaper.net/i-too-had-a-love-story-book-review/|accessdate=22 January 2016|work=The Viewspaper|archive-date=19 January 2016|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160119175424/http://theviewspaper.net/i-too-had-a-love-story-book-review/|url-status=dead}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;The author has described the instances of his personal life in the story. Being a love story, the genre seems very interesting and appealing to many youngsters who have experienced the essence of love and relationships in their lives and those who have sacrificed something for other’s happiness.&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

== Plot ==&lt;br /&gt;
Ganesh is from a middle-class family. He makes several bids to obtain employment, but all go in vain due to his poor language skills and inadequate educational qualifications. All his friends settled in life, but he continues to struggle to find employment. Ganesh has two best friends, Vasu and Srinu. His father is a teacher and is always critical of him for being an irresponsible person, only adding to his already long list of woes.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At this juncture, Ganesh catches a glimpse of Keerthi and immediately falls in love with her. He learns that she works for a software solutions firm. Luckily, Ganesh eventually secured employment in the same firm. Keerthi, however, turns out to be short-tempered. On a business trip, Ganesh accompanies her along with other colleagues to Australia. There, he reveals his feelings of love to her. She declines, saying that she comes from an orthodox family, and her marriage has already been arranged with her cousin.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Ganesh returns to India in a depressed manner. Unable to see his son in depression, his father tries to convince Keerthi, but she insults him for recommending his son&#039;s love and accidentally slaps both Ganesh and his father. Later that night, Ganesh&#039;s father dies of a heart attack. Ganesh again goes into depression. To ease Ganesh&#039;s mood, Vasu persuades him to come along to his family&#039;s house in the countryside. Coincidentally, on the train journey, Keerthi is revealed to be Vasu&#039;s fiancée. However, their grandfather&#039;s intention of getting them married earlier is put aside because Vasu and Keerthi leave the house to make their own identity. This causes heartache to their grandfather.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
With the passing of a few days, the parents of Keerthi and Vasu decide to marry to appease their grandfather. After several turns of events, Keerthi realizes that she is in love with Ganesh instead. Ganesh asks her to forget him, during a late-night meeting, because he believes that it would create problems in their happy family. Keerthi&#039;s grandfather notices them conversing and admonishes Keerthi for bringing disrepute to their family and asks Ganesh to leave his village. Ganesh gets ready to leave when he sees everyone putting up decorations for the wedding. Vasu furiously asks him to get out but Ganesh responds that they have misunderstood Keerthi all along. While Ganesh is on his way, a bunch of goons he saved the family from stabbed him in the stomach, and he is hospitalized.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, Vasu and Keerthi&#039;s wedding is taking place that morning. Upon knowing Ganesh&#039;s condition, Srinu asks Vasu to come and help. Though initially reluctant, Vasu abandons his wedding to help Ganesh. Everyone else slowly leaves for the hospital, except Keerthi and her grandfather. Keerthi says that she would never disobey her grandfather. Afterward, her grandfather takes Keerthi to the hospital. While Ganesh recovers and wakes up to leave, he sees that everyone in the family is outside his room, including Keerthi and her grandfather.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In time, Keerthi&#039;s family comes to stay with Ganesh for a few days. The film ends when Ganesh and Keerthi become a couple and live together.&lt;br /&gt;

The music was composed by director [[Sri Raghava]]&#039;s friend and &amp;quot;frequent&amp;quot; composer [[Yuvan Shankar Raja]], teaming up again after producing successful Tamil albums such as &#039;&#039;[[Kaadhal Kondein]]&#039;&#039; (2003), &#039;&#039;[[7G Rainbow Colony]]&#039;&#039; (2004) and &#039;&#039;[[Pudhupettai]]&#039;&#039; (2006). This film remains their last collaboration (even though they later rejoined in 2021 for &#039;&#039;[[Nenjam Marappathillai (2021 film)|Nenjam Marappathillai]]&#039;&#039;) before they split up, before &#039;&#039;[[NGK (film)|NGK]]&#039;&#039; (2019), and Sri Raghava decided to work with [[G.

&#039;&#039;&#039;Import substitution industrialization&#039;&#039;&#039; (&#039;&#039;&#039;ISI&#039;&#039;&#039;) is a [[protectionist]] [[trade]] and [[economics|economic]] [[policy]] that advocates replacing foreign imports with domestic production.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite dictionary|title=A Comprehensive Dictionary of Economics|page=88|editor-last=Nelson|editor-first=Brian|date=2009}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; It is based on the premise that a country should attempt to reduce its foreign dependency through the local production of [[industrialized]] products. The term primarily refers to 20th-century [[development economics]] policies, but it has been advocated since the 18th century by [[economists]] such as [[Friedrich List]]&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book|last=Mehmet|first=Ozay|date=1999|title=Westernizing the Third World: The Eurocentricity of Economic Development|location=London|publisher=Routledge|pages=33–57}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; and [[Alexander Hamilton]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book|last=Chang|first=Ha-Joon|year=2002|title=Kicking Away the Ladder: Development Strategy in Historical Perspective|location=London|publisher=Anthem Press}}{{page needed|date=August 2024}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

ISI policies have been enacted by developing countries with the intention of producing development and self-sufficiency by the creation of an internal market. The state leads economic development by nationalization, subsidization of manufacturing, increased taxation, and highly protectionist trade policies.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite journal|last1=Street|first1=James H.|last2=James|first2=Dilmus D.|date=1982|title=Structuralism, and Dependency in Latin America|journal=Journal of Economic Issues|volume=16|issue=3|pages=673–689|doi=10.1080/00213624.1982.11504027 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; In the context of Latin American development, the term &amp;quot;Latin American structuralism&amp;quot; refers to the era of import substitution industrialization in many Latin American countries from the 1950s to the 1980s.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|title=History of ECLAC|url=http://www.cepal.org/en/history-eclac|website=Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean|date=2014-10-08|publisher=United Nations|access-date=10 October 2016}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The theories behind Latin American structuralism and ISI were organized in the works of economists such as [[Raúl Prebisch]], [[Hans Singer]], and [[Celso Furtado]], and gained prominence with the creation of the [[United Nations Economic Commission for Latin America and the Caribbean]] ([[UNECLAC]] or [[CEPAL]]).&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite journal|last=Renato|first=Aguilar|date=1986|title=Latin American structuralism and exogenous factors|journal=Social Science Information|volume=25|issue=1|pages=227–290}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; They were influenced by a wide range of [[Keynesian]], [[communitarian]], and [[socialist]] economic thought,&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite journal|last=Arndt|first=H.W.|date=1985|title=The Origins of Structuralism|journal=World Development|volume=13|issue=2|pages=151–159|doi=10.1016/0305-750X(85)90001-4 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; as well as [[dependency theory]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite journal|last1=Perreault|first1=Thomas|last2=Martin|first2=Patricia|date=2005|title=Geographies of neoliberalism in Latin America|journal=Environment and Planning A|volume=37|issue=2 |pages=191–201|doi=10.1068/a37394 |bibcode=2005EnPlA..37..191P }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

ISI is a development theory, but its political implementation and theoretical rationale are rooted in [[trade theory]]. It has been argued that all or virtually all nations that have industrialized have followed ISI. Import substitution was heavily practiced during the mid-20th century as a form of developmental theory that advocated increased productivity and economic gains within a country. It was an inward-looking economic theory practiced by developing nations after [[World War II]]. Many economists then considered the ISI approach as a remedy to mass poverty by bringing a developing country to a developed status through national industrialization. Mass poverty is defined as &amp;quot;the dominance of agricultural and mineral activities – in the low-income countries, and in their inability, because of their structure, to profit from international trade.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite journal|last=Bruton|first=Henry J.|title=A Reconsideration of Import Substitution|journal=Journal of Economic Literature|volume=36|issue=2|date=1998|page=905}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Mercantilist]] economic theory and practices of the 16th, 17th, and 18th centuries frequently advocated building up domestic manufacturing and import substitution. In the early [[United States]], the [[Hamiltonian economic program]], specifically the third report and the &#039;&#039;magnum opus&#039;&#039; of [[Alexander Hamilton]], the &#039;&#039;[[Report on Manufactures]]&#039;&#039;, advocated for the U.S. to become self-sufficient in manufactured goods. That formed the basis of the [[American School (economics)|American School in economics]], which was an influential force in the country during its 19th-century industrialization.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Werner Baer]] contends that all countries that have industrialized after the [[United Kingdom]] have gone through a stage of ISI in which much investment in industry was directed to replace imports.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Import Substitution and Industrialization in Latin America&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite journal|last=Baer|first=Werner|date=1972|title=Import Substitution and Industrialization in Latin America: Experiences and Interpretations|journal=Latin American Research Review|volume=7|pages=95–96|doi=10.1017/S0023879100041224 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Going further, in his book &#039;&#039;Kicking Away the Ladder&#039;&#039;, the [[South Korea|South Korean]] economist [[Ha-Joon Chang]] also argues based on economic history that all major developed countries, including the United Kingdom, used interventionist economic policies to promote industrialization and protected national companies until they had reached a level of development in which they were able to compete in the global market. Those countries adopted free market discourses directed at other countries to obtain two objectives: to open their markets to local products and to prevent them from adopting the same development strategies that had led to the industrialization of the developed countries.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Theoretical basis ==&lt;br /&gt;
As a set of development policies, ISI policies are theoretically grounded on the [[Prebisch–Singer thesis]], on the [[infant industry]] argument, and on [[Keynesian]] economics. The associated practices are commonly:&lt;br /&gt;
* an active industrial policy to subsidize and orchestrate production of strategic substitutes&lt;br /&gt;
* protective barriers to trade (such as [[tariffs]])&lt;br /&gt;
* an overvalued currency to help manufacturers import capital goods (heavy machinery)&lt;br /&gt;
* discouragement of [[foreign direct investment]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By placing high tariffs on imports and other protectionist, inward-looking trade policies, the citizens of any given country by using a simple supply-and-demand rationale substitute the less expensive good for a more expensive one. The primary industry of importance would gather its resources, such as labor from other industries in this situation. The industrial sector would use resources, capital, and labor from the agricultural sector. In time, a developing country would look and behave similar to a developed country, and with a new accumulation of capital and an increase of [[total factor productivity]], the nation&#039;s industry would in principle be capable of trading internationally and of competing in the world market. Bishwanath Goldar, in his paper &#039;&#039;Import Substitution, Industrial Concentration and Productivity Growth in Indian Manufacturing&#039;&#039;, wrote: &amp;quot;Earlier studies on productivity for the industrial sector of developing countries have indicated that increases in total factor productivity, (TFP) are an important source of industrial growth&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Import substitution, industrial concentration and productivity growth&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite journal|last=Goldar|first=Bishwanath|title=Import substitution, industrial concentration and productivity growth in Indian manufacturing|date=May 1986|journal=Oxford Bulletin of Economics and Statistics|volume=48|issue=2|pages=143–164|doi=10.1111/j.1468-0084.1986.mp48002003.x}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;{{rp|43}} He continued that &amp;quot;a higher growth rate in output, other things remaining the same, would enable the industry to attain a higher rate of technological progress (since more investment would be made) and create a situation in which the constituent firms could take greater advantage of scale economies.&amp;quot; It is believed that ISI will allow that.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Import substitution, industrial concentration and productivity growth&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;{{rp|148}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In many cases, however, the assertions did not apply. On several occasions, the Brazilian ISI process, which occurred from 1930 to the late 1980s, involved currency devaluations to boost exports and discouraging imports, thus promoting the consumption of locally manufactured products, and the adoption of different exchange rates for importing capital goods and for importing consumer goods. Moreover, government policies toward investment were not always opposed to foreign capital: the Brazilian industrialization process was based on a tripod that involved governmental, private, and foreign capital, the first being directed to infrastructure and heavy industry, the second to manufacturing consumer goods, and the third to the production of durable goods such as automobiles. Volkswagen, Ford, GM, and Mercedes all established production facilities in Brazil in the 1950s and the 1960s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The underlying goal of ISI is to reduce economic dependency on other countries by using national or foreign investment to increase local production of industrial goods and services, which can be consumed domestically or exported. &#039;&#039;Substituting&#039;&#039; imports is distinct from &#039;&#039;eliminating&#039;&#039; imports. As a country industrializes, it typically imports new materials that developing industries need, often including petroleum, chemicals, and raw materials.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Local ownership import substituting===&lt;br /&gt;
In 2006, Michael Shuman proposed local ownership import substituting (LOIS), as an alternative to [[neoliberalism]]. It rejects the view that [[there is no alternative]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book|last=Shuman|first=Michael H.|date=2006|title=The Small-Mart Revolution: How Local Businesses are Beating the Global Competition|location=San Francisco, CA|publisher=Berrett-Koehler|isbn=1576753867}}{{page needed|date=August 2024}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Shuman claims that LOIS businesses are long-term [[wealth]] generators, are less likely to [[exit strategy|exit]] destructively, and have higher [[multiplier (economics)|economic multipliers]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.treehugger.com/culture/cage-match-tina-vs-lois.html|title=Cage Match: TINA vs LOIS|website=treehugger.com|access-date=4 April 2018}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Latin America ==&lt;br /&gt;
Import substitution policies were adopted by most nations in [[Latin America]] from the 1930s to the late 1980s. The initial date is largely attributed to the impact of the [[Great Depression]] of the 1930s, when Latin American countries, which exported primary products and imported almost all of the industrialized goods that they consumed, were prevented from importing because of a sharp decline in their foreign sales, which served as an incentive for the domestic production of the goods that they needed. The end date being the 1980s is largely due the emerging debt crisis that was occurring at the time, and through solving the crisis they turned away from import substitution and toward neoliberalism.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Brands |first=Hal |url=http://www.jstor.org/stable/j.ctvjk2vjz |title=Latin America&#039;s Cold War |date=2012-03-05 |publisher=Harvard University Press |isbn=978-0-674-05843-9 |doi=10.2307/j.ctvjk2vjz |jstor=j.ctvjk2vjz }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The first steps in import substitution were less theoretical and more pragmatic choices on how to face the limitations imposed by recession even though the governments in Argentina ([[Juan Domingo Perón]]) and Brazil ([[Getúlio Vargas]]) had the precedent of [[Kingdom of Italy#Fascist regime (1922–1943)|Fascist Italy]] (and, to some extent, the [[Soviet Union]]) as inspirations of state-induced industrialization. [[Positivist]] thinking, which sought a strong government to modernize society, played a major influence on Latin American military thinking in the 20th century. The officials, many of whom rose to power, like Perón and Vargas, considered industrialization (especially steel production) to be synonymous with &amp;quot;progress&amp;quot; and naturally placed as a priority.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
ISI gained a theoretical foundation only in the 1950s, when the [[Argentina|Argentine]] [[economist]] and [[UNECLAC]] leader [[Raúl Prebisch]] was a visible proponent of the idea, as well as the [[Brazil|Brazilian]] economist [[Celso Furtado]].&lt;br /&gt;

Prebisch had experience running his country&#039;s central bank and started to question the model of export-led growth.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;auto&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite book|title=The world transformed : 1945 to the present|last=Hunt|first=Michael H.|isbn=978-0-19-937102-0|pages=227–228|oclc=907585907|date = 2015-06-26|publisher=Oxford University Press }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Prebisch came to the conclusion that the participants in the free-trade regime had unequal power and that the central economies (particularly, Britain and the United States) that manufactured industrial goods could control the price of their exports.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;auto&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; The unequal powers were taking the wealth from developing countries, leaving them with no way to prosper.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;auto&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; He believed that [[developing countries]] needed to create local vertical linkages and that they could not succeed except by creating industries that used the primary products already being produced domestically. [[Tariffs]] were designed to allow domestic [[infant industry argument|infant industries]] to prosper. In doing so, Prebisch predicted many benefits: dependence on imports would lower, and the country would not be forced to sell agricultural goods for low prices to pay for industrial goods, the income rate would go up, and the country itself would have a strong growth.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;auto&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Within Latin America, ISI was most successful{{definition needed|date=February 2026}} in more populous, higher-income countries where domestic demand could better absorb new production. These conditions obtained in Argentina, Brazil, and [[Mexico]] and, to a lesser extent, in [[Chile]], [[Uruguay]] and [[Venezuela]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Blouet |first=Olwyn |author2=Olwyn Blouet |author3=Brian W. Blouet |title=Latin America and the Caribbean: A Systematic and Regional Survey |publisher=John Wiley |year=2002 |location=New York }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While the investment to produce cheap consumer products may be profitable in small markets, the same cannot be said for capital-intensive industries, such as automobiles and heavy machinery, which depend on larger markets to survive. Thus, smaller and poorer countries, such as [[Ecuador]], [[Honduras]], and the [[Dominican Republic]], could implement ISI only to a limited extent. [[Peru]] implemented ISI in 1961, and the policy lasted until the end of the decade in some form.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.sjsu.edu/faculty/watkins/peru.htm|title=ECONOMIC HISTORY AND THE ECONOMY OF PERU|website=www.sjsu.edu|access-date=4 April 2018|archive-date=5 October 2000|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20001005151205/http://www.sjsu.edu/faculty/watkins/peru.htm|url-status=dead}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
To overcome the difficulties of implementing ISI in small-scale economies, proponents of the economic policy, some within [[UNECLAC]], suggested two alternatives to enlarge consumer markets: income redistribution within each country by agrarian reform and other initiatives aimed at bringing Latin America&#039;s enormous marginalized population into the consumer market and [[regional integration]] by initiatives such as the [[Latin American Free Trade Association]] (ALALC), which would allow for the products of one country to be sold in another.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In Latin American countries in which ISI was most successful, it was accompanied by structural changes to the government. Old [[neocolonialism|neocolonial]] governments were replaced by more-or-less [[democratic government]]s. Banks, utilities, and certain other foreign-owned companies were [[nationalized]] or had their ownership transferred to locals.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Many economists contend that ISI failed in Latin America and was one of many factors leading to the so-called [[Latin American debt crisis|lost decade of Latin American economics]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Against most opinions, one historian argued that ISI was successful in fostering a great deal of social and economic development in Latin America:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt;&amp;quot;By the early 1960s, domestic industry supplied 95% of Mexico&#039;s and 98% of Brazil&#039;s consumer goods. Between 1950 and 1980, Latin America&#039;s industrial output went up six times, keeping well ahead of population growth. Infant mortality fell from 107 per 1,000 live births in 1960 to 69 per 1,000 in 1980, [and] life expectancy rose from 52 to 64 years. In the mid-1950s, Latin America&#039;s economies were growing faster than those of the industrialized West.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book|title=Globalization and the Postcolonial World: The New Political Economy of Development|first=Ankie|last=Hoogevelt|date=1997}}{{page needed|date=August 2024}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;/blockquote&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Africa ==&lt;br /&gt;
ISI policies were implemented in various forms across [[Africa]] from the early 1960s to the mid-1970s to promote indigenous economic growth within newly independent states. The national impetus for ISI can be seen from 1927, with the creation of the East African and Central African common markets in British and French colonies that recognized the importance of common trading tariffs in specific parts of the continent and aimed to protect domestic manufacturing from external competitors.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Industrialization in Sub-Saharan Africa and Import substitution policy&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;{{rp|124}}  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Colonial economies ===&lt;br /&gt;
Early attempts at ISI were stifled by colonial [[neomercantilism|neomercantilist]] policies of the 1940s and the 1950s that aimed to generate growth by exporting primary products to the detriment of imports.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;African Economic History&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;{{rp|205}} The promotion of exports to metropoles was the primary goal of the colonial economic system. The metropolitan governments aimed to offset colonial expenditures and attain primary commercial products from Africa at a significantly reduced rate.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;African Economic History&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;{{rp|206–215}} That was successful for British commercial interests in [[Ghana]] and [[Nigeria]], which increased 20 times the value of foreign trade between 1897 and 1960 because of the promotion of [[export]] crops such as [[cocoa bean|cocoa]] and [[palm oil]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite journal |last1=Austin |first1=Gareth |title=African Economic Development and Colonial Legacies |journal=Revue internationale de politique de développement |date=1 March 2010 |volume=1 |issue=1 |page=21 |doi=10.4000/poldev.78|doi-access=free}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Such economic growth occurred at the expense of indigenous communities, which had no say over the crops that were produced and retained marginal profits from their agricultural output.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |last1=Dumont |first1=Rene |title=False start in Africa |publisher=Earthscan |isbn=1853830275 |pages=31–33|year=1988 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; That model also expanded [[monocultures]], whose economies were centered on a single crop or natural resource for exports. Monoculturing was prevalent in countries such as [[Senegal]] and [[Gambia]], where [[peanut|groundnuts]] accounted for 85% to 90% of earnings throughout the 1940s.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;How Europe underdeveloped Africa&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite book |last1=Rodney |first1=Walter |title=How Europe underdeveloped Africa|edition=Revised |date=2012 |publisher=Pambazuka |isbn=978-1788731188}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;{{rp|234}} That economic model rendered the [[Postcolonialism|postcolonial]] states vulnerable to unstable export prices and failed to promote the diversification of the economy. Postcolonial governments were also sceptical of the reliance on multinational corporations for economic development, as they were less likely to pay taxes and exported capital abroad.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;African capitalism&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite book |last1=Kennedy |first1=Paul |title=African capitalism : the struggle for ascendency |url=https://archive.org/details/africancapitalis0000kenn |url-access=registration |date=1988 |publisher=Cambridge University Press |isbn=0521319668}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;{{rp|61}}  Thus, ISI policies were adopted to redirect African economies towards indigenous growth and [[industrialisation]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Post-colonial economic situation ===&lt;br /&gt;
The underdeveloped political and economic structures inherited across post-colonial Africa created a domestic impetus for ISI. Marxist historians such as [[Walter Rodney]] contend that the gross underdevelopment in social services were a direct result of colonial economic strategy, which had to be abandoned to generate [[sustainable development]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Industrialization in Sub-Saharan Africa and Import substitution policy&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;{{rp|126}}&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;How Europe underdeveloped Africa&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;{{rp|203-221}} [[Rene Dumont]] supported that observation and argued that African states were administratively overburdened as a result of colonialism.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |last1=Dumont |first1=Rene |title=False start in Africa|edition=2nd|date=1988 |publisher=Earthscan |page=79}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The initial, unchanged conditions created discontent in states such as [[Ghana]] and [[Tanzania]] during the early 1960s over the fall in wages and employment opportunities. The unrest culminated in a series of mass strikes and tensions between governments and trade unions.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite journal |first=Lynn Krieger|last=Mytelka |title=&amp;quot;The Unfulfilled Promise of African Industrialization |journal=African Studies Review |date=1989 |page=91}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Dissatisfaction with the poor economic progress upon [[decolonisation]] made it clear to African leaders that they could no longer rely on rhetoric and tradition to maintain power and could retain the support of their political base only through a coherent economic model aligned with their political interests. The culmination of the political and economic issues necessitated the adoption of ISI, as it rejected the colonial neo-mercantilist policies that they believed had led to underdevelopment.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Ideological foundation ===&lt;br /&gt;
For leaders of post-colonial African nations, it was imperative for their economic policies to represent an ideological break with the [[imperialism|imperialist]] models of development. To achieve that, some newly independent states pursued [[African socialism]] to build indigenous growth and break free from capitalist development patterns.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |first=Martin|last=Meredith |title=The State of Africa: A History of Fifty Years of Independence |url=https://archive.org/details/stateofafricahis00mere |url-access=registration |date=2006 |publisher=Free Press |page=[https://archive.org/details/stateofafricahis00mere/page/144 144]|isbn=9780743232227 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Through the adoption of African socialism, leaders such as [[Kwame Nkrumah]], [[Julius Nyerere]], and [[Leopold Senghor]] hoped to establish a model of development based around  [[Nkrumaism|consciencism]], an intellectual and cultural revolution; and, most importantly, a big push in industrialization towards rapid development for the continent.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;African socialism&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite journal |last1=Akyeampong|first1=Emmanuel|title=African socialism; or, the search for an indigenous model of economic development? |journal=Economic History of Developing Regions |date=2018|volume=33 |pages=69–87 |doi=10.1080/20780389.2018.1434411 |url=https://www.aehnetwork.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/11/AEHN-WP-36.pdf }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;{{rp|73-77}} One of the main aspects of the big push towards development was the growth of [[parastatal|parastatals]] from 1960 to 1980.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite journal |first1=Paul Ove|last1=Pedersen|first2=Dorothy|last2=McCormick |title=African Business Systems in a Globalising World |journal=The Journal of Modern African Studies |date=1999 |page=113}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The state-owned trading corporations were given control over the import-export business as well as the retail-wholesale distribution.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;African capitalism&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;{{rp|65}} That allowed post-colonial states to nationalise industries and retain the profits from their output, rather than allow capital flight to the west through multinational corporations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The growth of African socialism in the pursuit of ISI can be seen in the 1967 [[Arusha Declaration]] (Tanzania) in which Nyerere argued that &amp;quot;we cannot get enough money and borrow enough technicians to start all the industries we need and even if we could get the necessary assistance, dependence on it would interfere with our policy on socialism.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite journal |first1=Dennis|last1=Cohen |title=Class and the Analysis of African Politics: Problems and Prospects |journal=Political Economy of Africa |page=189}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The need for indigenous development formed the core of the African socialist vision whereby the state would manage a [[planned economy]] to prevent it from being controlled by the free market, which was regarded as a form of [[neo-imperialism]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |first1=Kwame|last1=Nkrumah |title=Neo-colonialism the Last Stage of Imperialism |date=1965 |publisher=Nelson |pages=239–243}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; In line with that economic vision, Tanzania engaged in the [[nationalization]] of industry to create jobs and to produce a domestic market for goods while it maintained an adherence to African socialist principles exemplified through the [[ujamaa]] program of villagization.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Industrialization in Sub-Saharan Africa and Import substitution policy&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite journal |first1=A|last1=Mendes|first2=M.|last2=Bertella|first3=R.|last3=Teixeira |title=Industrialization in Sub-Saharan Africa and Import substitution policy |journal=Brazilian Journal of Political Economy |date=2014|volume=34 |pages=120–138 |doi=10.1590/S0101-31572014000100008 |hdl=11449/109485|hdl-access=free}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;{{rp|130}} The unaffordability of industrial products and increased tensions between managers and settlers of the villages contributed to a &amp;quot;colossal failure&amp;quot; of ISI in Tanzania, leading it to abandon the villagization project and to focus on agricultural development.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite journal |first=I.G.|last=Shivji |title=The village in Mwalimu&#039;s thought and political practice |journal=Africa&#039;s Liberation: The Legacy of Julius Nyerere |date=2010 |pages=121}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
While ISI under African socialism was purported to be an anti-Western development model, scholars such as Anthony Smith argued that its ideological roots came from Rostow&#039;s [[modernization theory]], which maintains that commitment to economic growth and free-market capitalism is the most efficient means of state development.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |first1=A.D.|last1=Smith |title=The Concept of Social Change |url=https://archive.org/details/conceptofsocialc0000smit |url-access=registration |date=1973 |publisher=Routledge |page=[https://archive.org/details/conceptofsocialc0000smit/page/33 33]|isbn=9780710076076 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; [[Kenya]]&#039;s implementation of ISI under state capitalism exemplifies the model of development. [[Tom Mboya]], the first minister for economic development and planning, aimed to create a growth-oriented path of industrialization, even at the expense of traditional socialist morals.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite journal |first=Daniel|last=Speich |title=The Kenyan Style of &amp;quot;African Socialism: Developmental Knowledge Claims and the Explanatory Limits of the Cold War |journal=Diplomatic History |date=2009 |page=457}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;  Kenya&#039;s Sessional Paper No. 10 of 1965 reinforced the view by claiming, &amp;quot;If Africanization is undertaken at the expense of growth, our reward will be a falling standard of living.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book|title=African Socialism and Its Application to Planning in Kenya |date=1965 |publisher=Republic of Kenya |page=18}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Under such a development path, multinational corporations occupied a dominant role in the economy, primarily in the manufacturing sectors. Economic historians such as Ralph Austen argue that the openness to western enterprise and technical expertise led to a higher GNP in Kenya than comparative socialist countries such as Ghana and Tanzania.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;African Economic History&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite book |first=Ralph|last=Austen |title=African Economic History |date=1987 |publisher=Oxford University Publishing}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;{{rp|246-247}} However, the 1972 [[World Bank]] ILO report on Kenya claimed that direct state intervention was necessary to reduce the growing economic inequalities that had occurred as a result of state capitalism.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |first1=Hans W.|last1=Singer|first2=Richard|last2=Jolly |title=Employment, Incomes and Equality: A strategy for Increasing Productive Employment in Kenya |date=1972}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Implementation ===&lt;br /&gt;
In all of the countries that adopted ISI, the state oversaw and managed its implementation, designing economic policies that directed development towards the indigenous population, with the aim of creating an industrialised economy. The [[Nigerian Enterprises Promotion Decree|1972 Nigerian Enterprises Promotion Decree]] exemplified such control, as it required foreign companies to offer at least 40% of their equity shares to local people.  A state-controlled economy has been criticized by scholars such as Douglas North who claim that the interests of political elites may be self-serving, rather than for the good of the nation.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |first=Douglas|last=North |title=Structure and Change in Economic History |date=1985 |publisher=North and Co}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; That correlates with the theory of [[neo-patrimonialism]], which claims that post-colonial elites used the coercive powers of the state to maintain their political positions and to increase their personal wealth.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite journal |first=Daniel C.|last=Bach |title=Patrimonialism and neopatrimonialism: comparative trajectories and readings |journal=Commonwealth &amp;amp; Comparative Politics |date=2011 |page=281}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;   Ola Olson opposes that view by arguing that in a developing economy, the government is the only actor with the financial and political means to unify the state apparatus behind an industrialization process.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite journal |first=S.|last=Wangwe |title=The performance of the manufacturing sector in Tanzania: Challenges and the way forward |journal=WIDER Working Paper No. 2014/085. |date=2014 |page=31}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;  &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Outcomes ===&lt;br /&gt;
Sub-Saharan Africa&#039;s experiment with ISI created largely pessimistic results across the continent by the early 1980s. Manufacturing, which formed the core of the  big push towards industrialisation, accounted for only 7% of GDP across the continent by 1983.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Industrialization in Sub-Saharan Africa and Import substitution policy&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;{{rp|135}} The failures of the model stemmed from various external and domestic factors. Internally, efforts to industrialise came at the expense of the agricultural sector, which accounted for 70% of the region&#039;s workforce throughout the 1970s.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite journal |first1=Ernest|last1=Aryeetey|first2=Nelipher|last2=Moyo |title=Industrialisation for Structural Transformation in Africa: Appropriate Roles for the State&amp;quot; |journal=Journal of African Economies |date=2012 |page=65}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The neglect was detrimental to producers as well as the urban population, as agricultural output could not meet the increasing demands for foodstuffs and raw materials in the growing urban areas.  ISI efforts also suffered from a comparative disadvantage in skilled labor for industrial growth.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Industrial strategy for late starters&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite journal |first1=R.|last1=Gulhati|first2=U.|last2=Sekhar |title=&amp;quot;Industrial strategy for late starters: the experience of Kenya, Tanzania and Zambia |journal=Staff Working Paper; No. SWP 457 |date=1981}}{{page needed|date=August 2024}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A 1982 World Bank report stated, &amp;quot;There exists a chronic shortage of skills which pervades not only the small manufacturing sector but the entire economy and the over-loaded government machine.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Industrial strategy for late starters&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;{{rp|32}} Tanzania, for example, had only two engineers at the beginning of the import-substitution period.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;African socialism&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;{{rp|71}} The skills shortage was exacerbated by the technological deficiencies facing African states throughout industrialisation. Learning and adopting the technological resources and skills was a protracted and costly process, something that African states were unable to capitalise on because of the lack of domestic savings and poor literacy rates across the continent.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Industrialization in Sub-Saharan Africa and Import substitution policy&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;{{rp|133}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The failure of ISI to generate sufficient growth in industrialisation and overall development led to its abandonment by the early 1980s. In response to the underdeveloped economies in the region, the IMF and the World Bank imposed a [[wikt:neoclassical|neo-classical]] counter-revolution in Africa through [[Structural adjustment program|Structural Adjustment Programmes]] (SAPs) from 1981.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite journal |first1=Olu|last1=Ajakaiye|first2=John|last2=Page |title=Industrialisation and Economic Transformation in Africa: Introduction and Overview |journal=Journal of African Economies |date=2012 |page=10}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The new economic consensus blamed the low growth rates on excessive [[protectionism]] in the industrial sector, the neglect of exports, and the low agricultural productivity.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |title=Accelerated development in sub-Saharan Africa: an agenda for action (English). |date=1981 |publisher=The World Bank}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; For the [[IMF]] and the [[World Bank]], the solution to the failure of import substitution was a restructuring of the economy towards strict adherence to a [[neoliberal]] model of development throughout the 1980s and the 1990s.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Russia ==&lt;br /&gt;
In 2014, customs duties were applied on imported products in the food sector. Russia has considerably reduced its food imports, and domestic production has increased considerably. The cost of food imports dropped from $60 billion in 2014 to $20 billion in 2017, and the country enjoys record cereal production. Russia has strengthened its position on the world food market and has become food self-sufficient. In the fisheries, fruit, and vegetables sectors, domestic production has increased sharply, imports have declined significantly, and the trade balance (the difference between exports and imports) has improved. In the second quarter of 2017, agricultural exports were expected to exceed imports, which would make Russia a net agricultural exporter for the first time in almost 100 years.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web|url=https://www.independent.ie/business/farming/agri-business/record-breaking-food-production-in-russia-could-see-exports-reaching-40-billion-36700225.html|title=Record breaking food production in Russia could see exports reaching $40 billion|website=Farming Independent|date=13 March 2018 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Criticism ==&lt;br /&gt;
Import substitution policies might create jobs in the short run, but as domestic producers replace foreign producers, both output and growth are lower than would otherwise have been in the long run.{{citation needed|date=April 2019}} Import substitution denies the country the benefits to be gained from specialisation and foreign imports. The theory of [[comparative advantage]] shows how countries within the model gain from trade, however, this concept has received criticism for its misguided underlying assumptions and inapplicability to modern production. Moreover, protectionism leads to dynamic inefficiency, as domestic producers have no incentive from foreign competitors to reduce costs or improve products. Import substitution can impede growth through poor allocation of resources, and its effect on exchange rates harms exports.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Import Substitution and Industrialization in Latin America&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Results ===&lt;br /&gt;
Despite some apparent gains, import substitution was &amp;quot;both unsustainable over time and produced high economic and social costs&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Franko, P. M. 2007&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite book|last=Franko|first=Patrice|date=2007|title=The puzzle of Latin American economic development|edition=3rd|location=Lanham|publisher=Rowman &amp;amp; Littlefield|isbn=9780742553538}}{{page needed|date=August 2024}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Given import substitution&#039;s dependence upon its developed and isolated markets within Latin America, it relied upon the growth of a market that was limited in size. In most cases, the lack of experience in manufacturing and the lack of competition reduced innovation and efficiency, which restrained the quality of Latin American produced goods, and protectionist policies kept prices high.&amp;lt;ref name= &amp;quot;Franko, P. M. 2007&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;  In addition, power was concentrated in the hands of a few, which decreased the incentive for entrepreneurial development. Lastly, the large deficits and debts resulting from import substitution policies are largely credited for the Latin American crisis of the 1980s.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite journal|first=Jeffrey|last=Sachs|date=1985|url=http://www.earth.columbia.edu/sitefiles/file/about/director/pubs/BPEA1985_2.pdf|title=External Debt and Macroeconomic Performance in Latin America and East Asia|journal=Brookings Papers on Economic Activity|number=2|pages=523–573|doi=10.2307/2534445 |jstor=2534445 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Pakistani historians such as [[Ishtiaq Hussain Qureshi]] base the two-nation theory on the distinctiveness of medieval Indo-Muslim culture or civilization. It is described that by assimilating many aspects of Indian culture in customs, social manners, architecture, painting and music, the Muslims of India established a new distinct Indo-Muslim culture or civilization, which not only maintained its separate identity from other Muslim peoples such as the Arabs and the Persians, etc., but also simultaneously maintained the distinctiveness of this new culture from the former Hindu India by being essentially [[Indo-Persian culture|Indo-Persian]] in character.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |url= https://archive.org/details/self-and-sovereignty/page/17/mode/2up?q=cultural |title=Self And Sovereignty: Individual And Community in South Asian Islam since 1850 |author= Ayesha Jalal |date= 2000 |quote= not in some syncretic weave obliterating the religiously informed cultural identifies of Muslims but permitting the emergence of what has been variously described as Indo-Persian or the Indo-Islamic style of the arts.|page=17 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;chandra1996&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Sandria B.

It is generally believed in Pakistan that the movement for Muslim self-awakening and identity was started by [[Ahmad Sirhindi]] (1564–1624), who fought against emperor Akbar&#039;s religious syncretist &#039;&#039;[[Din-i Ilahi]]&#039;&#039; movement and is thus considered &amp;quot;for contemporary official Pakistani historians&amp;quot; to be the founder of the Two-nation theory,&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Arthur Buehler, &amp;quot;Ahmad Sirhindī: Nationalist Hero, Good Sufi, or Bad Sufi?&amp;quot; in Clinton Bennett, Charles M.

To hope that both could remain equal is to desire the impossible and inconceivable.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{citation |last1=Hussain |chapter=The Crisis of State Power in Pakistan |first1=Akmal |editor1=Ponna Wignaraja |editor2=Akmal Hussain |title=The Challenge in South Asia: Development, Democracy and Regional Cooperation |chapter-url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Y9DmV9-0on0C&amp;amp;pg=PA201 |year=1989 |publisher=United Nations University Press |isbn=978-0-8039-9603-8 |page=201 |access-date=22 July 2019 |archive-date=15 November 2019 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20191115015242/https://books.google.com/books?id=Y9DmV9-0on0C&amp;amp;pg=PA201 |url-status=live }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;}}&lt;br /&gt;

In 1888, in a critical assessment of the [[Indian National Congress]], which promoted [[composite nationalism]] among all the castes and creeds of colonial India, he also considered Muslims to be a separate nationality among many others:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{blockquote|The aims and objects of the Indian National Congress are based upon an ignorance of history and present-day politics; they do not take into consideration that India is inhabited by different nationalities: they presuppose that the Muslims, the Marathas, the Brahmins, the Kshatriyas, the Banias, the Sudras, the Sikhs, the Bengalis, the Madrasis, and the Peshawaris can all be treated alike and all of them belong to the same nation. The Congress thinks that they profess the same religion, that they speak the same language, that their way of life and customs are the same... I consider the experiment which the Indian National Congress wants to make fraught with dangers and suffering for all the nationalities of India, especially for the Muslims.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Gerald James Larson, &#039;&#039;India&#039;s Agony Over Religion: Confronting Diversity in Teacher Education&#039;&#039;, SUNY Press (1995), p. 184&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;|}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:All India Muslim league conference 1906 attendees in Dhaka.jpg|thumb|250px|All India Muslim league conference, 1906]]&lt;br /&gt;
In 1925, during the Aligarh session of the [[All-India Muslim League]], which he chaired, [[Abdur Rahim (judge)|Justice Abdur Rahim]] (1867–1952) was one of the first to openly articulate on how Muslims and Hindu constitute two nations, and while it would become common rhetoric, later on, the historian [[S. M. Ikram]] says that it &amp;quot;created quite a sensation in the twenties&amp;quot;:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{blockquote|The Hindus and Muslims are not two religious sects like the Protestants and Catholics of England, but form two distinct communities of peoples, and so they regard themselves. Their respective attitude towards life, distinctive culture, civilization and social habits, their traditions and history, no less than their religion, divide them so completely that the fact that they have lived in the same country for nearly 1,000 years has contributed hardly anything to their fusion into a nation... Any of us Indian Muslims travelling for instance in Afghanistan, Persia, and Central Asia, among Chinese Muslims, Arabs, and Turks, would at once be made at home and would not find anything to which we are not accustomed. On the contrary in India, we find ourselves in all social matters total aliens when we cross the street and enter that part of the town where our Hindu fellow townsmen live.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;S.M. Ikram, &#039;&#039;Indian Muslims and Partition of India&#039;&#039;, Atlantic Publishers &amp;amp; Dist (1995), p. 308&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;|}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
More substantially and influentially than Justice Rahim, or the historiography of British administrators, the poet-philosopher [[Muhammad Iqbal]] (1877–1938) provided the philosophical exposition and [[Barrister]] [[Muhammad Ali Jinnah]] (1871–1948) translated it into the political reality of a nation-state.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ReferenceA&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{citation |last=Wolpert |first=Stanley A. |title=Jinnah of Pakistan |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=d0PqPAAACAAJ |date=12 July 2005 |publisher=Oxford University Press |isbn=978-0-19-567859-8|pages=47–48}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some Hindu nationalists also tended to believe Hindus and Muslims are different peoples, as illustrated by a statement made by Vinayak Damodar Savarkar in 1937 during the 19th session of the Hindu Mahasabha in Ahmedabad regarding two nations:-&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{blockquote|There are two antagonistic nations living side by side in India. India cannot be assumed today to be a unitarian and homogenous nation. On the contrary, there are two nations in the main: the Hindus and the Muslims, in India.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;counterview&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;|}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Flag of Muslim League.svg|thumb|Flag of the All-India Muslim League]]&lt;br /&gt;
The [[All-India Muslim League]], in attempting to represent Indian Muslims, felt that the Muslims of the subcontinent were a distinct and separate nation from the Hindus. At first they demanded separate electorates, but when they opined that Muslims would not be safe in a Hindu-dominated [[India]], they began to demand a separate state. The League demanded [[self-determination]] for Muslim-majority areas in the form of a sovereign state promising minorities equal rights and safeguards in these Muslim majority areas.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;ReferenceA&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

{{blockquote|In 1941, a CID report states that thousands of Muslim weavers under the banner of [[Momin Conference]] and coming from Bihar and Eastern U.P. descended in Delhi demonstrating against the proposed two-nation theory. A gathering of more than fifty thousand people from an unorganized sector was not usual at that time, so its importance should be duly recognized.

&lt;br /&gt;
On the other hand, Ian Copland, in his book discussing the end of the British rule in the Indian subcontinent, precises that it was not an élite-driven movement alone, who are said to have birthed separatism &amp;quot;as a defence against the threats posed to their social position by the introduction of representative government and competitive recruitment to the public service&amp;quot;, but that the Muslim masses participated into it massively because of the religious polarization which had been created by [[Hindu revivalism]] towards the last quarter of the 19th century, especially with the openly anti-Islamic [[Arya Samaj]] and the whole [[cow protection movement]], and &amp;quot;the fact that some of the loudest spokesmen for the Hindu cause and some of the biggest donors to the Arya Samaj and the cow protection movement came from the Hindu merchant and money lending communities, the principal agents of lower-class Muslim economic dependency, reinforced this sense of insecurity&amp;quot;, and because of Muslim resistance, &amp;quot;each year brought new riots&amp;quot; so that &amp;quot;by the end of the century, Hindu-Muslim relations had become so soured by this deadly roundabout of blood-letting, grief and revenge that it would have taken a mighty concerted effort by the leaders of the two communities to repair the breach.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Ian Copland, &#039;&#039;India 1885-1947: The Unmaking of an Empire&#039;&#039;, Pearson Education (2001), pp. 57-58&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The, &amp;quot;Two Nation Theory&amp;quot;, has become the official narrative in Pakistan for the creation of the state and key to how Pakistan defines itself, based on religion; seeking a separate homeland for Muslims, Jinnah had said in a speech in Lahore leading up to the partition that Hindus and Muslims belong to two different religious philosophies, social customs and literary traditions, neither intermarrying nor eating together, belonging to two different civilisations whose ideas and conceptions are incompatible.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web | last=Kermani | first=Secunder | title=How Jinnah&#039;s ideology shapes Pakistan&#039;s identity | website=BBC Home | date=2017-08-18 | url=https://www.bbc.com/news/world-asia-40961603 | access-date=2024-04-04}} Quote=&amp;quot;Hindus and Muslims belong to two different religious philosophies, social customs and literary traditions.

In [[Muhammad Ali Jinnah]]&#039;s All India Muslim League presidential address delivered in Lahore, on March 22, 1940, he explained:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{blockquote|It is extremely difficult to appreciate why our Hindu friends fail to understand the real nature of Islam and Hinduism. They are not religions in the strict sense of the word, but are, in fact, different and distinct social orders, and it is a dream that the Hindus and Muslims can ever evolve a common nationality, and this misconception of one Indian nation has troubles and will lead India to destruction if we fail to revise our notions in time. The Hindus and Muslims belong to two different religious philosophies, social customs, [[litterateur]]s. They neither intermarry nor interdine together and, indeed, they belong to two different civilizations which are based mainly on conflicting ideas and conceptions. Their aspect on life and of life are different. It is quite clear that Hindus and Mussalmans derive their inspiration from different sources of history. They have different epics, different heroes, and different episodes. Very often the hero of one is a foe of the other and, likewise, their victories and defeats overlap. To yoke together two such nations under a single state, one as a numerical minority and the other as a majority, must lead to growing discontent and final destruction of any fabric that may be so built for the government of such a state.|&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Quaid&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=http://www.nazariapak.info/data/quaid/statements/two-nation.asp|title=Excerpt from the presidential address delivered Muhammad Ali Jinnah in Lahore on March 22, 1940|first=Nazaria-e-Pakistan Foundation|last=Official website|access-date=22 April 2006 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20060628044030/http://www.nazariapak.info/data/quaid/statements/two-nation.asp &amp;lt;!-- Bot retrieved archive --&amp;gt; |archive-date = 28 June 2006}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;}}&lt;br /&gt;

In 1944, Jinnah said:&lt;br /&gt;
{{blockquote|We maintain and hold that Muslims and Hindus are two major nations by any definition or test of a nation. We are a nation of hundred million and what is more, we are a nation with our own distinctive culture and civilization, language and literature, art and architecture, names and nomenclature, sense of values and proportions, legal laws and moral codes, customs and calendar, history and tradition, and aptitude and ambitions. In short, we have our own outlook on life and of life.|}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In an interview with British journalist [[Beverley Nichols]], he said in 1943: &lt;br /&gt;
{{blockquote|Islam is not only a religious doctrine but also a realistic code of conduct in terms of every day and everything important in life: our history, our laws and our jurisprudence. In all these things, our outlook is not only fundamentally different but also opposed to Hindus. There is nothing in life that links us together. Our names, clothes, food, festivals, and rituals, all are different. Our economic life, our educational ideas, treatment of women, attitude towards animals, and humanitarian considerations, all are very different.|}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In May 1947, he took an entirely different approach when he told [[Louis Mountbatten, 1st Earl Mountbatten of Burma|Mountbatten]], who was in charge of British India&#039;s transition to independence: {{blockquote|Your Excellency doesn&#039;t understand that the Punjab is a nation. Bengal is a nation. A man is a Punjabi or a Bengali first before he is a Hindu or a Muslim. If you give us those provinces you must, under no condition, partition them. You will destroy their viability and cause endless bloodshed and trouble.|}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Mountbatten replied: {{blockquote|Yes, of course. A man is not only a Punjabi or a Bengali before he is a Muslim or Hindu, but he is an Indian before all else.

Ambedkar&#039;s anti-Muslim rhetoric in his book was paradoxical, which in order to agree with Jinnah&#039;s two-nation theory, played on every stereotype of Muslim barbarism. It emphasized the threat that the Muslim dominance in the Indian army posed to free India, and about the frightful fate that the Hindus would face if Pakistan was not separated.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:1&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite book |url= https://books.google.com/books?id=savUAQAAQBAJ&amp;amp;dq=two+nation+theory+muslim+dominance&amp;amp;pg=PA194 |title= Muslim Zion: Pakistan as a Political Idea |author= Faisal Devji |date= 2013 |page= 194 |publisher= Harvard University Press |isbn= 9780674074163 |access-date= 30 March 2023 |archive-date= 22 April 2023 |archive-url= https://web.archive.org/web/20230422040529/https://books.google.com/books?id=savUAQAAQBAJ&amp;amp;dq=two+nation+theory+muslim+dominance&amp;amp;pg=PA194 |url-status= live }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; He asserted that, if the Muslims were bent on the creation of Pakistan, the demand should be conceded in the interest of the safety of India. He asks whether Muslims in the army could be trusted to defend India in the event of Muslims invading India or in the case of a Muslim rebellion, as the bulk of the fighting forces available for the defence of India mostly came from areas which were to be included in Pakistan. &amp;quot;[W]hom would the Indian Muslims in the army side with?&amp;quot; he questioned.

&lt;br /&gt;
{{blockquote|The real explanation of this failure of Hindu-Muslim unity lies in the failure to realize that what stands between the Hindus and Muslims is not a mere matter of difference and that this antagonism is not to be attributed to material causes. It is formed by causes which take their origin in historical, religious, cultural and social antipathy, of which political antipathy is only a reflection. These form one deep river of discontent which, being regularly fed by these sources, keeps on mounting to a head and overflowing its ordinary channels. Any current of water flowing from another source, however pure, when it joins it, instead of altering the colour or diluting its strength becomes lost in the mainstream. The silt of this antagonism which this current has deposited has become permanent and deep. So long as this silt keeps on accumulating and so long as this antagonism lasts, it is unnatural to expect this antipathy between Hindus and Muslims to give place to unity.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar, &#039;&#039;Pakistan Or Partition of India&#039;&#039;, Thacker limited (1945), p. 324&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;|}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
According to Ambedkar, Hindu Nationalists naturally felt a resentment towards the assertion that Muslim India was a separate nation, because the Hindus felt ashamed to admit that India was not a nation, and despite attempts by the Hindus to prove to the English that India was in fact a nation, a deadlier blow arrived from the Muslim League which &amp;quot;cuts the whole ground from under the feet of the Hindu politicians.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |title= Pakistan or the Partition of India |author= Ambedkar |date= 1945 |page=12 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; However, Ambedkar asserted that the separation of Muslims from India would benefit India, as the army would no longed be dominated by Muslims. Therefore, the Hindu civilian government would not be vulnerable to the army.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |title= the Idea of Pakistan| author= Stephen P.

&amp;lt;blockquote&amp;gt; &amp;quot;Pay heed, at this time in which the country is not in their hands [Hindus], how many obstacles they place for your religious symbols...When authority shall be in their hands, what can be guessed of that time? For example, at this time ritual slaughtering [qurbānī] occurs with restrictions and limitations...at that time they shall make it a crime worse than murder of a human.&lt;br /&gt;

Shall the [British] government grant you [Muslims] alone the country? This is not possible. Nor shall they [Hindus] alone be granted it, then you shall have to share, or you shall have to divide the country. In the event of the second, it is apparent that no Indian city is free from Muslim population, then upon those hundreds of thousands of Muslims you have implemented laws in opposition to your pure Sharīáh with your united effort and you shall be responsible for that...In the event of the first, shall the Hindus agree that the country be shared and that the laws be solely the laws of Islām? Certainly not! Eventually you shall have to agree with them in one law or another that is in opposition to Islām...This is all in the case that dispute does not arise, and if it does break out, and experience informs that it certainly shall, if at that time the Hindus, as per their habit, play innocent and place all the blame upon your heads, then who shall be responsible for raising mischief in the land and opposing the Divine command, “Do not throw yourselves into destruction”, placing the lives and honour of yourselves and of hundreds of thousands of innocent Muslims in danger?

In 1947, Dawn made a case for cultural nationalism based on art, literature, and way of life, and crucial to this claim of a nationhood separated from the majority &#039;Hindu&#039; community was the fixing of a national culture that could be specific to Indian Muslims.

==Post-partition debate==&lt;br /&gt;
Similar debates on national identity existed within India at the linguistic, provincial and religious levels. While some argued that Indian Muslims were one nation, others argued they were not.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Since the partition, the theory has been subjected to animated debates and different interpretations on several grounds. Mr. Niaz Murtaza, a Pakistani scholar with a doctoral degree from the Berkeley-based University of California, wrote in his &#039;&#039;[[Dawn (newspaper)|Dawn]]&#039;&#039; column (April 11, 2017):&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |last=Murtaza |first=Dr Niaz |date=2017-04-11 |title=National myths |url=https://www.dawn.com/news/1326135 |access-date=2024-04-04 |website=DAWN.COM |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{blockquote|If the two-nation theory is eternally true, why did Muslims come to Hindu India from Arabia? Why did they live with and rule Hindus for centuries instead of giving them a separate state based on such a theory? Why did the two-nation theory emerge when Hindu rule became certain?

In his memoirs entitled &#039;&#039;Pathway to Pakistan&#039;&#039; (1961), [[Chaudhry Khaliquzzaman]], a prominent leader of the Pakistan movement and the first president of the [[Pakistan Muslim League]], has written: &amp;quot;The two-nation theory, which we had used in the fight for Pakistan, had created not only bad blood against the Muslims of the minority provinces but also an ideological wedge, between them and the Hindus of India.&amp;quot;.{{sfn|Khaliquzzaman, Pathway to Pakistan|1961|p=390}} He further wrote: &amp;quot;He ([[Huseyn Shaheed Suhrawardy]]) doubted the utility of the two-nation theory, which to my mind also had never paid any dividends to us, but after the partition, it proved positively injurious to the Muslims of India, and on a long-view basis for Muslims everywhere.&amp;quot;{{sfn|Khaliquzzaman, Pathway to Pakistan|1961|p=400}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
According to Khaliquzzaman, on August 1, 1947, [[Muhammad Ali Jinnah|Jinnah]] invited the Muslim League members of India&#039;s constituent assembly to a farewell meeting at his Delhi house.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{blockquote|Mr. Rizwanullah put some awkward questions concerning the position of Muslims, who would be left over in India, their status and their future.

Finding the situation awkward, I asked my friends and colleagues to end the discussion. I believe as a result of our farewell meeting, Mr. Jinnah took the earliest opportunity to bid goodbye to his two-nation theory in his speech on 11 August 1947 as the governor general-designate and President of the constituent assembly of Pakistan.{{sfn|Khaliquzzaman, Pathway to Pakistan|1961|p=321}} }}&lt;br /&gt;

In his August 11, 1947 speech, [[Muhammad Ali Jinnah|Jinnah]] had spoken of composite [[Pakistani nationalism]], effectively negating the faith-based nationalism that he had advocated in his speech of March 22, 1940. In his August 11 speech, he said that non-Muslims would be equal citizens of Pakistan and that there would be no discrimination against them. &amp;quot;You may belong to any religion or caste or creed that has nothing to do with the business of the state.&amp;quot; On the other hand, far from being an ideological point (transition from faith-based to composite nationalism), it was mainly tactical: [[Dilip Hiro]] says that &amp;quot;extracts of this speech were widely disseminated&amp;quot; in order to abort the communal violence in Punjab and the NWFP, where Muslims and Sikhs-Hindus were butchering each other and which greatly disturbed Jinnah on a personal level, but &amp;quot;the tactic had little if any, impact on the horrendous barbarity that was being perpetrated on the plains of Punjab.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Dilip Hiro, &#039;&#039;The Longest August: The Unflinching Rivalry Between India and Pakistan&#039;&#039;, Hachette UK (2015), p. 101&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Another Indian scholar, Venkat Dhulipala, who in his book &#039;&#039;Creating a New Medina&#039;&#039; precisely shows that Pakistan was meant to be a new Medina, an Islamic state, and not only a state for Muslims, so it was meant to be ideological from the beginning with no space for composite nationalism, in an interview also says that the speech &amp;quot;was made primarily keeping in mind the tremendous violence that was going on&amp;quot;, that it was &amp;quot;directed at protecting Muslims from even greater violence in areas where they were vulnerable&amp;quot;, &amp;quot;it was pragmatism&amp;quot;, and to vindicate this, the historian goes on to say that &amp;quot;after all, a few months later, when asked to open the doors of the Muslim League to all Pakistanis irrespective of their religion or creed, the same Jinnah refused, saying that Pakistan was not ready for it.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |author=Ajaz Ashraf |date=28 June 2016 |url=https://scroll.in/article/810132/the-venkat-dhulipala-interview-on-the-partition-issue-jinnah-and-ambedkar-were-on-the-same-page |title=The Venkat Dhulipala interview: &#039;On the Partition issue, Jinnah and Ambedkar were on the same page |website=[[Scroll.in]] |access-date=11 April 2019 |archive-date=5 December 2016 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20161205112539/http://scroll.in/article/810132/the-venkat-dhulipala-interview-on-the-partition-issue-jinnah-and-ambedkar-were-on-the-same-page |url-status=live }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

According to Professor [[Sharif al Mujahid]], one of the most preeminent experts on [[Muhammad Ali Jinnah|Jinnah]] and the [[Pakistan movement]], the two-nation theory was relevant only in the pre-1947 subcontinental context.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[https://jinnah-institute.org/feature/august-11-1947-jinnahs-paradigmatic-shift/ Jinnah&#039;s paradigmatic shift] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20201031220625/https://jinnah-institute.org/feature/august-11-1947-jinnahs-paradigmatic-shift/ |date=31 October 2020 }}, Jinnah Institute, 4 September 2010.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;{{full citation needed|date=April 2017}} He is of the opinion that the creation of Pakistan rendered it obsolete because the two nations had transformed themselves into Indian and Pakistani nations.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;The News, March 23, 2011&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;{{full citation needed|date=April 2017}} Muqtada Mansoor, a columnist for Express newspaper, has quoted [[Farooq Sattar]], a prominent leader of the [[Muttahida Qaumi Movement – Pakistan|MQM]], as saying that his party did not accept the two-nation theory. &amp;quot;Even if there was such a theory, it has sunk in the [[Bay of Bengal]].&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Daily Express, Lahore, March 24, 2011&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;{{full citation needed|date=April 2017}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In 1973, there was a movement against the recognition of Bangladesh in Pakistan. Its main argument was that Bangladesh&#039;s recognition would negate the two-nation theory. However, [[Salman Sayyid]] says that 1971 is not so much the failure of the two-nation theory and the advent of a [[Supremacism#Islamic|united Islamic polity]] despite ethnic and cultural difference, but more so the defeat of &amp;quot;a [[Westphalian sovereignty|Westphalian]]-style nation-state, which insists that linguistic, cultural and ethnic homogeneity is necessary for high &#039;sociopolitical cohesion&#039;. The break-up of united Pakistan should be seen as another failure of this Westphalian-inspired [[Kemalist]] model of nation-building, rather than an illustration of the inability of [[Political Islam|Muslim political identity]] to sustain a unified state structure.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Salman Sayyid, &#039;&#039;Recalling the Caliphate: Decolonisation and World Order&#039;&#039;, C.  Hurst &amp;amp; Co. (2014), p. 126&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Some Bangladesh academics have rejected the notion that 1971 erased the legitimacy of the two-nation theory as well, like Akhand Akhtar Hossain, who thus notes that, after independence, &amp;quot;Bengali ethnicity soon lost influence as a marker of identity for the country&#039;s majority population, their Muslim identity regaining prominence and differentiating them from the Hindus of West Bengal&amp;quot;,&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Akhand Akhtar Hossain, &amp;quot;Islamic Resurgence in Bangladesh&#039;s Culture and Politics: Origins, Dynamics and Implications&amp;quot; in &#039;&#039;Journal of Islamic Studies&#039;&#039;, Volume 23, Issue 2, May 2012, Pages 165–198&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; or Taj ul-Islam Hashmi, who says that Islam came back to Bangladeshi politics in August 1975, as the death of [[Sheikh Mujibur Rahman]] &amp;quot;brought Islam-oriented state ideology by shunning secularism and socialism.&amp;quot; He has quoted Basant Chatterjee, an Indian Bengali journalist, as rebuking the idea of the failure of two-nation theory, arguing that, had it happened, Muslim-majority Bangladesh would have joined Hindu-majority West Bengal in India.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Taj ul-Islam Hashmi, &amp;quot;Islam in Bangladesh politics&amp;quot; in Hussin Mutalib and Taj ul-Islam Hashmi (editors), &#039;&#039;Islam, Muslims and the Modern State: Case Studies of Muslims in Thirteen Countries&#039;&#039;, Springer (2016), pp. 100-103&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[J. N. Dixit]], a former ambassador of India to Pakistan, thought the same, stating that Bangladeshis &amp;quot;wanted to emerge not only as an independent Bengali country but as an independent Bengali Muslim country. In this, they proved the British Viceroy Lord [[George Curzon, 1st Marquess Curzon of Kedleston|George Curzon]] (1899-1905) correct. His [[Partition of Bengal (1905)|partition of Bengal in 1905]] creating two provinces, one with a Muslim majority and the other with a Hindu majority, seems to have been confirmed by Bangladesh&#039;s emergence as a Muslim state. So one should not be carried away by the claim of the two-nation theory having been disproved.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;J. N. Dixit, &#039;&#039;India-Pakistan in War and Peace&#039;&#039;, Routledge (2003), p. 387&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Dixit has narrated an anecdote. During Prime Minister Zulfikar Ali Bhutto&#039;s visit to [[Dhaka]] in July 1974, after [[Sheikh Mujibur Rahman]] went to Lahore to attend the Islamic summit in February 1974: &amp;quot;As the motorcade moved out, Mujib&#039;s car was decorated with garlands of chappals and anti-Awami League slogans were shouted together with slogans such as: &amp;quot;Bhutto Zindabad&amp;quot;, and &amp;quot;Bangladesh-Pakistan Friendship Zindabad&amp;quot;.&amp;quot; He opines that Bhutto&#039;s aim was &amp;quot;to revive the Islamic consciousness in Bangladesh&amp;quot; and &amp;quot;India might have created Bangladesh, but he would see that India would have to deal with not one, but two Pakistans, one in the west and another in the east.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;J. N. Dixit, &#039;&#039;India-Pakistan in War and Peace&#039;&#039;, Routledge (2003), p. 225&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Ethnic and provincial groups in Pakistan ===&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Several ethnic and provincial leaders in Pakistan also began to use the term &amp;quot;nation&amp;quot; to describe their provinces and argued that their very existence was threatened by the concept of amalgamation into a Pakistani nation on the basis that Muslims were one nation.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;iops2005fds&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Citation | title=Pakistan political perspective, Volume 14 | author=((Institute of Policy Studies, Islamabad)) | year=2005| url=https://books.google.com/books?id=1uGNAAAAMAAJ}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;mustafa2003s&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Citation |title=Sayyed: as we knew him |author1=Sayid Ghulam Mustafa |author2=Ali Ahmed Qureshi |year=2003 |publisher=Manchhar Publications |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=rfdtAAAAMAAJ |access-date=12 August 2015 |archive-date=29 March 2024 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20240329144038/https://books.google.com/books?id=rfdtAAAAMAAJ |url-status=live }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; It has also been alleged that the idea that Islam is the basis of nationhood embroils Pakistan too deeply in the affairs of other predominantly Muslim states and regions, prevents the emergence of a unique sense of Pakistani nationhood that is independent of reference to India, and encourages the growth of a fundamentalist culture in the country.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;brass2002&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Citation |title=Competing nationalisms in South Asia: essays for Asghar Ali Engineer |author1=Paul R.

Also, because partition divided Indian Muslims into three groups (of roughly 190 million people each in India, Pakistan, and Bangladesh) instead of forming a single community inside a united India that would have numbered about 570 million people and potentially exercised great influence over the entire subcontinent. So, the two-nation theory is sometimes alleged to have ultimately weakened the position of Muslims on the subcontinent and resulted in large-scale territorial shrinkage or skewing for cultural aspects that became associated with Muslims (e.g., the decline of [[Urdu language]] in India).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;kibria2009&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Citation | title=A shattered dream: understanding Pakistan&#039;s underdevelopment | author=Ghulam Kibria | year=2009 | isbn=978-0-19-577947-9 |publisher=Oxford University Press | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=CNDsAAAAMAAJ}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;mahajan2002&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Citation | title=The multicultural Path: Issues of Diversity and Discrimination in Democracy | author=Gurpreet Mahajan | year=2002 | isbn=978-0-7619-9579-1 |publisher=Sage | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=wanZAAAAMAAJ}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

This criticism has received a mixed response in Pakistan. A poll conducted by [[Gallup Pakistan]] in 2011 shows that an overwhelming majority (92%) of Pakistanis held the view that separation from India was justified in 1947.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news|url=http://tribune.com.pk/story/250684/majority-pakistanis-think-partition-of-india-was-justified-gallup-poll/|title=Majority Pakistanis think separation from India was justified: Gallup poll|work=Express Tribune|date=12 September 2011|access-date=28 December 2011|archive-date=26 October 2011|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20111026111448/http://tribune.com.pk/story/250684/majority-pakistanis-think-partition-of-india-was-justified-gallup-poll/|url-status=live}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Pakistani commentators have contended that two nations did not necessarily imply two states, and the fact that Bangladesh did not merge into India after separating from Pakistan supports the two-nation theory.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;khan2005skd&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Citation | title=The concept, Volume 25 | author=Raja Afsar Khan | year=2005| url=https://books.google.com/books?id=A-NtAAAAMAAJ}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;dailytimes1&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web |title=India and Partition |publisher=Daily Times |url=http://www.dailytimes.com.pk/default.asp?page=story_10-4-2004_pg3_5 |access-date=11 June 2007 |archive-date=20 October 2012 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20121020200059/http://www.dailytimes.com.pk/default.asp?page=story_10-4-2004_pg3_5 |url-status=live }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

Counters to this question was the argument that despite the still-extant Muslim minority in India, and asserted variously that Indian Muslims have been &amp;quot;Hinduized&amp;quot; (i.e., lost much of their Muslim identity due to assimilation into [[Hindu culture]]), or that they are treated as an excluded or alien group by an allegedly Hindu-dominated India.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;haddad2000&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Citation | title=Muslims on the Americanization path? |author1=Yvonne Yazbeck Haddad |author2=John L.

=== Pan-Islamic identity ===&lt;br /&gt;

The emergence of a sense of identity that is pan-Islamic rather than Pakistani has been defended as consistent with the founding ideology of Pakistan and the concept that &amp;quot;Islam itself is a nationality,&amp;quot; despite the commonly held notion of &amp;quot;nationality, to Muslims, is like idol worship.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;jan1993&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Citation | title=Foreign policy debate, the years ahead | author=Tarik Jan | year=1993|publisher=Institute of Policy Studies | url=https://books.google.com/books?id=--1tAAAAMAAJ| isbn=9789694480183 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;burke1974&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Citation | title=Mainsprings of Indian and Pakistani foreign policies | author=S.

Nevertheless, in post-independence India, the two-nation theory helped advance the cause of [[Hindu nationalism|Hindu nationalist]] groups seeking to identify a &amp;quot;Hindu national culture&amp;quot; as the core identity of an Indian.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite journal |author1=Sammyh S.

&lt;br /&gt;
=== After Indian independence ===&lt;br /&gt;
After the [[Indian independence movement|independence of India]] in 1947, Sikh marriages would be registered under the [[Hindu Marriage Act, 1955]], as the earlier 1909 act was invalidated by the [[Constitution of India|Indian constitution]] in 1950.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:7&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=Decoding and Defining the Anand Karaj Marriage Act |url=https://www.sikhnet.com/news/decoding-and-defining-anand-karaj-marriage-act |access-date=12 December 2025 |website=SikhNet}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The 1955 act was viewed as conservative because it applied to any person who is Hindu by religion in any of its forms, but it also includes other religions, such as Jains, Buddhists, or Sikhs as specified in Article 44 of the Indian Constitution.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;revenue&amp;quot;&amp;gt;[http://punjabrevenue.nic.in/hmrgact(1).htm &#039;&#039;Department of Revenue, Rehabilitation and Disaster Management&#039;&#039; – &amp;quot;Hindu Marriage Act, 1955&amp;quot;] {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160304105343/http://punjabrevenue.nic.in/hmrgact(1).htm|date=4 March 2016}} d&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The 1909 act was amended by act 48 of 1959.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:1&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; However, with the passage of Anand Marriage (Amendment) Bill in 2012, Sikhs now also have their own [[Family law|personal law]] related to [[Marriage law|marriage]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;auto&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==== 2012 amendment ====&lt;br /&gt;
The 1909 act would later be amended by the Anand Marriage (Amendment) Act, 2012 on 7 June 2012. This act paved the way for the validation of Sikh traditional marriages, amending the Anand Marriage Act of 1909, thus providing for compulsory registration of &amp;quot;Anand Karaj&amp;quot; marriages.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web |title=The Anand Marriage (Amendment) Act, 2012 Published in the Gazzette of India - Family Law |url=http://www.lawyersclubindia.com/news/The-Anand-Marriage-Amendment-Act-2012-Published-in-the-Gazzette-of-India-13894.asp |access-date=18 January 2019 |website=Lawyersclubindia}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;indiatimes.com&amp;quot;&amp;gt;{{cite web |title=Sikhs can register marriages under Anand Act - Times of India |url=http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2012-05-22/india/31815659_1_blissful-event-anand-marriage-act-anand-karaj |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20130413031309/http://articles.timesofindia.indiatimes.com/2012-05-22/india/31815659_1_blissful-event-anand-marriage-act-anand-karaj |archive-date=13 April 2013 |access-date=17 January 2022 |website=[[The Times of India]]}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=Sikhs hail the passage of Sikh Marriage Act in Indian Parliament &amp;amp;#124; India America Today |url=http://www.indiaamericatoday.com/article/sikhs-hail-passage-sikh-marriage-act-indian-parliament |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120527130754/http://www.indiaamericatoday.com/article/sikhs-hail-passage-sikh-marriage-act-indian-parliament |archive-date=27 May 2012 |access-date=15 June 2012 |df=dmy-all}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; This allowed for Sikhs to register their marriages under the 2012 Anand Marriage Act instead of the 1955 Hindu Marriage Act.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:7&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; In 2025, the [[Supreme Court of India]] validated the legality of Anand Karaj marriages and requested all Indian states &amp;amp; union territories to develop a framework for them, as some still have yet to notify the rules despite the 2012 amendment.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite news |date=19 September 2025 |title=SC asks states, UTs to notify rules for registration of ‘Anand Karaj’ marriage |url=https://www.hindustantimes.com/cities/chandigarh-news/sc-asks-states-uts-to-notify-rules-for-registration-of-anand-karaj-marriage-101758221999042.html |access-date=12 December 2025 |work=Hindustan Times}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite news |date=21 September 2025 |title=Chief Khalsa Diwan calls SC decision on Sikh&#039;s Anand Marriage Act as historic |url=https://www.tribuneindia.com/news/amritsar/ckd-calls-sc-decision-on-anand-marriage-act-as-historic/ |access-date=12 December 2025 |work=The Tribune}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;:3&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; [[Haryana]] had notified its rules regarding anand marriages in 2014.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite news |last=Siwach |first=Sukhbir |date=8 May 2014 |title=Haryana woos Sikhs with marriage law |url=https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/India/Haryana-woos-Sikhs-with-marriage-law/articleshow/34795668.cms |access-date=12 December 2025 |work=Times of India}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite news |last=Sharma |first=Bhupinder |date=8 May 2014 |title=Haryana notifies Anand Marriage Registration Rules |url=https://www.dailypioneer.com/2014/state-editions/haryana-notifies-anand-marriage-registration-rules.html |access-date=12 December 2025 |work=The Pioneer}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

His description of [[India]] and [[Ceylon]] during the 6th century is invaluable to historians.

&lt;br /&gt;
A major feature of his &#039;&#039;[[Christian Topography]]&#039;&#039; is his worldview that the surface of ocean and earth is [[flat earth|flat]] (that is, nonconvex and nonspherical, as perceived by the human senses) and that the [[sky|heavens]] form the shape of a box with a curved lid. He was scornful of [[Ptolemy]] and others who held that the world&#039;s surface was, contrary to human perceptual experience, a spherical shape.  Cosmas aimed to prove that pre-Christian geographers had been wrong in asserting that the surface of the earth and surface of the ocean was convex and spherical in shape, and that it was in fact modelled on the [[tabernacle]], the house of worship described to [[Moses]] by God during the [[The Exodus|Jewish Exodus]] from Egypt. In the centre of the plane is the inhabited earth, surrounded by ocean, beyond which lies the paradise of [[Adam]]. The sun revolves round a conical mountain to the north: round the summit in summer, round the base in winter, which accounts for the difference in the length of the day.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;EB1911&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
However, his idea that the surface of the ocean and earth is nonspherical had been a minority view among educated Western opinion since the 3rd century BC.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web | last = Russell | first = Jeffrey B. | url = http://www.asa3.org/ASA/topics/history/1997Russell.html | title = The Myth of the Flat Earth | publisher = American Scientific Affiliation | access-date = 2007-03-14 }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Cosmas&#039;s view was never influential even in religious circles; a near-contemporary Christian, [[John Philoponus]], sought to refute him in his &#039;&#039;[[De opificio mundi (John Philoponus)|De opificio mundi]]&#039;&#039; as did many Christian philosophers of the era.&amp;lt;ref name=Brit/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[David C. Lindberg]] asserts: {{quote|&#039;&#039;Cosmas was not particularly influential in Byzantium, but he is important for us because he has been commonly used to buttress the claim that all (or most) medieval people believed they lived on a flat earth. This claim...is totally false. Cosmas is, in fact, the only medieval European known to have defended a flat earth cosmology, whereas it is safe to assume that all educated Western Europeans (and almost one hundred percent of educated Byzantines), as well as sailors and travelers, believed in the earth&#039;s sphericity.&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Lindberg, David &amp;quot;[[The Beginnings of Western Science]], 600 B.C. to A.D. 1450&amp;quot;, p. 161&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cosmas was mentioned in Umberto Eco&#039;s historical novel, &#039;&#039;[[Baudolino]]&#039;&#039;. In the book, a Byzantine priest and spy, Zozimas of Chalcedon, refers to his world topography as the key to finding the mythical [[Prester John]]: &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{quote|&#039;&#039;Well, in the empire of us Romans, centuries ago there lived a great sage, Cosmas Indicopleustes, who traveled to the very confines of the world, and in his &#039;&#039;Christian Topography&#039;&#039; demonstrated in irrefutable fashion that the earth truly is in the form of a tabernacle, and that only thus can we explain the most obscure phenomena.&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Eco, Umberto (2002). &#039;&#039;Baudolino.&#039;&#039; Orlando, Florida: Harcourt, Inc. p. 215&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Cosmology aside, Cosmas proves to be an interesting and reliable guide, providing a window into a world that has since disappeared. He happened to be in [[Adulis]] on the [[Red Sea]] Coast of modern [[Eritrea]] at the time (c. AD 525) when the King of [[Kingdom of Axum|Axum]] was preparing a military expedition to attack the [[Jew]]ish king [[Dhu Nuwas]] in [[Yemen]], who had recently been persecuting Christians. On request of the Axumite king and in preparation for this campaign, he recorded now-vanished inscriptions such as the [[Monumentum Adulitanum]] which he mistook for a continuation of another monument detailing [[Ptolemy III Euergetes]]&#039;s conquests in Asia. Neither have been located by archeologists.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite journal |last1=Rossini |first1=A. |date=December 2021 |title=Iscrizione trionfale di Tolomeo III ad Aduli |url=https://edizionicafoscari.unive.it/it/edizioni/riviste/axon/2021/2/iscrizione-trionfale-di-tolomeo-iii-ad-aduli/ |journal=Axon |volume=5 |issue=2 |pages=93–142 |doi=10.30687/Axon/2532-6848/2021/02/005|doi-access=free }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Allusions in the Topography suggest that Cosmas was also the author of a larger cosmography, a treatise on the motions of the stars, and commentaries on the [[Psalms]] and [[Canticle]]s.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;EB1911&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

In inscriptions found in both these temples, it is gathered that the town had several other appellations - it went by the name of &#039;&#039;Loka-Mahadevi-Chaturvedi-Mangalam&#039;&#039; during the time of [[Rajaraja I]] (alias &#039;&#039;Rajakesarivarman&#039;&#039;), by &#039;&#039;Raja-Sulamani-Chaturvedi-Mangalam&#039;&#039; during the reign of the following kings [[Rajadhiraja Chola|Rajadhiraja]], [[Rajendra Chola I|Rajendra]] and [[Virarajendra Chola|Veera Rajendra]] and also by a few other names . From the time of Kulothunga Chola I to the end of the third Kulothunga period, the town was called &#039;Pandiyanai Irumadi Venkonda Chola Chaturvedi Mangalam&#039; (&#039;the town belonging to the Chaturvedi Chola who conquered Pandyas twice&#039;). During the 18- year reign of Raja Raja III, the town was called &amp;quot;Grama Sikamani Chaturvedi Mangalam&amp;quot; (&#039;&#039;Jewel among habitations&#039;&#039;).&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;JTH&amp;quot; /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Temples ==&lt;br /&gt;
The Rajagopala Perumal temple is dedicated to the worship of Vishnu, in the form of &#039;&#039;Dwaraka-Pati&#039;&#039; (&#039;the Lord of [[Dvārakā]]&#039;), and was also known in Tamil as {{lang|ta|Vanduvarapati}}.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;LCT&amp;quot; /&amp;gt; Besides this, there are two other temples in the town devoted to Vishnu called the Vaikuntha-Perumal temple and the Krishna-swami temple.{{fact|date=June 2023}} There is another temple called Kailasa-Nathar temple devoted to Siva.{{fact|date=June 2023}}&lt;br /&gt;

Fort William was built to safeguard the [[East India Company]]’s trade in [[Kolkata|Calcutta]], the chief city of the [[Bengal Presidency]]. In 1756, amid rising tensions with the French East India Company due to the global [[Seven Years’ War]], the British began strengthening the fort’s defenses. [[Siraj ud-Daulah]], the [[Nawab of Bengal]], ordered both the British and French to cease fortification work, wary of European encroachment. The French complied, but the British continued, prompting the Nawab’s ire and contributing to the subsequent conflict.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In consequence to that British indifference to his authority, Siraj ud-Daulah organised his army and [[Siege of Calcutta|laid siege to Fort William]]. In an effort to survive the battle, the British commander ordered the surviving soldiers of the garrison to escape, yet left behind 146 soldiers under the civilian command of [[John Zephaniah Holwell]], a senior [[bureaucrat]] of the East India Company who had been once a [[military surgeon]].&amp;lt;ref name=wolpert&amp;gt;{{cite book|last=Wolpert|first=Stanley|title=A New History of India|year=2009|publisher=Oxford University Press|location=New York|isbn=978-0-19-533756-3|edition=8th|author-link=Stanley Wolpert|page=185}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The desertions of [[Sepoy|Indian sepoys]] made the British defence of Fort William ineffective and it fell to the siege of Bengali forces on 20 June 1756. The British officers and merchants based in Calcutta were rounded up by the forces loyal to Siraj ud-Daulah and forced into a dungeon known as the &amp;quot;Black Hole&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==The Holwell account==&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Black Hole of Calcutta 1908.jpg|thumb|right|A fenced display of the Black Hole of Calcutta (1908)]]&lt;br /&gt;
Holwell wrote about the events that occurred after the fall of Fort William. He met with Siraj-ud-Daulah, who assured him: &amp;quot;On the word of a soldier; that no harm should come to us&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;!-- There were some italics here – are they original? --&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name=holwell&amp;gt;{{cite encyclopedia|last=Holwell|first=John Zephaniah|author-link=John Zephaniah Holwell|author2=Friends|title=A Genuine Narrative of the Deplorable Deaths of the English Gentlemen, and Others, who were suffocated in the Black-Hole in Fort-William, at Calcutta, in the Kingdom of Bengal; in the Night succeeding the 20th Day of June, 1756 |encyclopedia=India Tracts |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=d0oOAAAAQAAJ&amp;amp;pg=PA251|access-date=16 September 2011|edition=2nd|year=1764|publisher=Becket &amp;amp; de Hondt|location=London|pages=251–276}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; After seeking a place in the fort to confine the prisoners (including Holwell), at {{nowrap|8.00 p.m.}}, the jailers stripped the prisoners of their clothes and locked the prisoners in the fort&#039;s prison—&amp;quot;the black hole&amp;quot; in soldiers&#039; slang—a small room that measured {{convert|14|x|18|ft|m}}.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Partridge, Eric. &#039;&#039;Dictionary of Slang and Unconventional English&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;{{full citation needed|date=June 2022}} The next morning, when the black hole was opened, at {{nowrap|6.00 a.m.}}, only about 23 of the prisoners remained alive.&amp;lt;ref name=wolpert/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Historians offer different numbers of prisoners and casualties of war; Stanley Wolpert estimated that 64 people were imprisoned and 21 survived.&amp;lt;ref name=wolpert/&amp;gt; D. L. Prior estimated that 43 men of the Fort-William garrison were either missing or dead, for reasons other than suffocation and [[Acute stress reaction|shock]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;D. L. Prior, Holwell&#039;s biographer in the &#039;&#039;[[Oxford Dictionary of National Biography]]&#039;&#039;, estimated figures of 64 prisoners and 21 survivors.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Busteed suggests that the many non-combatants present in the fort when it was captured make infeasible a precise number of people killed.&amp;lt;ref name=bust&amp;gt;{{cite book |first=H. E. |last=Busteed |title=Echoes from Old Calcutta |location=London |publisher=W. Thacker |date=1908 |pages=30–56 |edition=4th |url=https://archive.org/details/in.ernet.dli.2015.104189/page/n57/mode/2up}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Regarding responsibility for the maltreatment and the deaths in the Black Hole of Calcutta, Holwell said, &amp;quot;it was the result of revenge and resentment, in the breasts of the lower &#039;&#039;[[Jemadar]]s&#039;&#039; (sergeants), to whose custody we were delivered, for the number of their order killed during the siege.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref name=holwell/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Concurring with Holwell, Wolpert said that Siraj-ud-Daulah did not order the imprisonment and was not informed of it.&amp;lt;ref name=wolpert/&amp;gt; The physical description of the Black Hole of Calcutta corresponds with Holwell&#039;s point of view:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{blockquote|The [[dungeon]] was a strongly barred room and it was not intended for the confinement of more than two or three men at a time. There were only two windows, and a projecting [[veranda]] outside, and thick iron bars within impeded the ventilation, while fires, raging in different parts of the fort, suggested an atmosphere of further oppressiveness. The prisoners were packed so tightly that the door was difficult to close.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
One of the soldiers stationed in the veranda was offered 1,000 [[Coinage of India#Later Mughal Emperors (c. 1555–1857 CE)|rupees]] to have them removed to a larger room. He went away, but returned saying it was impossible. The bribe was then doubled, and he made a second attempt with a like result; the &#039;&#039;[[Nawabs of Bengal|nawab]]&#039;&#039; was asleep, and no one dared wake him.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
By nine o&#039;clock several had died, and many more were delirious. A frantic cry for water now became general, and one of the guards, more compassionate than his fellows, caused some water to be brought to the bars, where Mr. Holwell and two or three others received it in their hats and passed it on to the men behind. In their impatience to secure it nearly all was spilled, and the little they drank seemed only to increase their thirst. Self-control was soon lost; those in remote parts of the room struggled to reach the window, and a fearful tumult ensued, in which the weakest were trampled or pressed to death. They raved, fought, prayed, blasphemed, and many then fell exhausted on the floor, where suffocation put an end to their torments.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
About 11 o&#039;clock the prisoners began to drop off, fast. At length, at six in the morning, Siraj-ud-Daulah awoke and ordered the door to be opened. Of the 146 only 23, including Mr. Holwell [from whose narrative, published in the &#039;&#039;[[The Annual Register|Annual Register]]&#039;&#039; and &#039;&#039;[[The Gentleman&#039;s Magazine]]&#039;&#039; for 1758, this account is partly derived], remained alive, and they were either stupefied or raving. Fresh air soon revived them, and the commander was then taken before the &#039;&#039;nawab&#039;&#039;, who expressed no regret for what had occurred, and gave no other sign of sympathy than ordering the Englishman a chair and a glass of water. Notwithstanding this indifference, Mr. Holwell and some others acquit him of any intention of causing the catastrophe and ascribe it to the malice of certain officers, but many think this opinion unfounded.|sign=|source=}}&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Afterward, when the prison of Fort William was opened, the corpses of the dead men were thrown into a ditch. As prisoners of war, Holwell and three other men were transferred to [[Murshidabad]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==British reaction==&lt;br /&gt;
The remaining survivors of the Black Hole of Calcutta were freed the next morning on the orders of the Nawab, who learned only that morning of their sufferings.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite book |last=Holwell |first=John Zephaniah |chapter=A Genuine Narrative |editor-first=S.

With his troops and local Indian allies, Clive recaptured Calcutta in January 1757, and defeated Siraj ud-Daulah at the [[Battle of Plassey]], which resulted in Siraj being overthrown as Nawab of Bengal and executed.&amp;lt;ref name=wolpert/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

==Monument to the victims==&lt;br /&gt;
{{further|Holwell Monument agitation}}&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Black Hole Calcutta memorial 3.jpg|thumb|right|The Black Hole Memorial, St. John&#039;s Church, [[Kolkata|Calcutta]], [[India]].]]&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&#039;&#039;In memoriam&#039;&#039; of the dead, the British erected a {{convert|15|m|ft|adj=on}} high [[obelisk]]; it now is in the graveyard of (Anglican) St. John&#039;s Church, Calcutta. Holwell had erected a tablet on the site of the &#039;Black Hole&#039; to commemorate the victims but, at some point (the precise date is uncertain), it disappeared. [[Lord Curzon]], on becoming Viceroy in 1899, noticed that there was nothing to mark the spot and commissioned a new monument, mentioning the prior existence of Holwell&#039;s; it was erected in 1901 at the corner of Dalhousie Square (now [[B. B. D. Bagh]]), which is said to be the site of the &#039;Black Hole&#039;.{{r|bust|pages=52-6}} At the apex of the [[Indian independence movement]], the presence of this monument in Calcutta was turned into a nationalist &#039;&#039;[[cause célèbre]]&#039;&#039;. [[Indian nationalism|Nationalist]] leaders, including [[Subhas Chandra Bose]], lobbied energetically for its removal. The Congress and the [[All-India Muslim League|Muslim League]] joined forces in the anti-monument movement. As a result, Abdul Wasek Mia of Nawabganj thana, a student leader of that time, led the removal of the monument from Dalhousie Square in July 1940. The monument was re-erected in the graveyard of [[St. John&#039;s Church, Kolkata|St John&#039;s Church]] in [[Kolkata|Calcutta]], where it remains.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The &#039;Black Hole&#039; itself, being merely the guardroom in the old Fort William, disappeared shortly after the incident when the fort itself was taken down to be replaced by the new Fort William which still stands today in the Maidan to the south of B.B.D. Bagh. The precise location of that guardroom is in an alleyway between the General Post Office and the adjacent building to the north, in the north west corner of B.B.D. Bagh. The memorial tablet which was once on the wall of that building beside the GPO can now be found in the nearby postal museum.&lt;br /&gt;

===Literature===&lt;br /&gt;
[[Mark Twain]], on Chapter 20 in his travelogue &#039;&#039;[[Innocents Abroad]]&#039;&#039; (1867), describes a cell he and his fellow passengers were put into by police in [[Bellagio, Lombardy|Bellagio, Italy]], as &amp;quot;the Black Hole of Calcutta on a small scale.&amp;quot; Later, in chapter 54 of his &#039;&#039;[[Following the Equator]]&#039;&#039; (1897), he visits Calcutta and describes the history of the place, quoting an excerpt from Holwell. He also mentions the destruction of the site: &amp;quot;the mention of Calcutta infallibly brings up the Black Hole...and yet within the time of men who still live, the Black Hole was torn down and thrown away as carelessly as if its bricks were common clay, not ingots of historic gold. There is no accounting for human beings.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Muriel Rukeyser]], in &#039;&#039;The Book of the Dead&#039;&#039;,&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Rukeyser |first=Muriel |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=Cl8tswEACAAJ |title=The Book of the Dead |date=2018 |publisher=West Virginia University Press |isbn=978-1-946684-21-9}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; originally published as a group of poems in &#039;&#039;U.S. 1: Poems&#039;&#039;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Rukeyser |first=Muriel |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=haAMAAAAIAAJ |title=U.S. 1 |date=1938 |publisher=Covici, Friede}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; (1938)&#039;&#039;,&#039;&#039; quotes from [[Vito Marcantonio]]&#039;s speech &amp;quot;Dusty Death&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=Vito Marcantonio Online |url=http://www.vitomarcantonio.org/chapter_2.php |access-date=2022-03-22 |website=Vito Marcantonio}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; (1936). Rukeyser was writing about the [[Hawks Nest Tunnel disaster|Hawk&#039;s Nest Tunnel]] tragedy and referenced to Marcantonio&#039;s speech to compare the silicate tunnels to the Black Holes of Calcutta, writing &amp;quot;This is the place. Away from this my life I am indeed Adam unparadiz&#039;d. Some fools call this the Black Hole of Calcutta. I don&#039;t know how they ever get to Congress.&amp;quot;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book |last=Rukeyser |first=Muriel |url=https://books.google.com/books?id=rRhrJAI6kUgC&amp;amp;dq=%22This+is+the+place.+Away+from+this+my+life+I+am+indeed+Adam+unparadiz%27d.+Some+fools+call+this+the+Black+Hole+of+Calcutta.+I+don%27t+know+how+they+ever+get+to+Congress.%22&amp;amp;pg=PA30 |title=Out of Silence: Selected Poems |date=1994 |publisher=Northwestern University Press |isbn=978-0-8101-5015-7}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Thomas Pynchon]] refers to the Black Hole of Calcutta in the historical novel &#039;&#039;[[Mason &amp;amp; Dixon]]&#039;&#039; (1997). The character [[Charles Mason]] spends much time on [[Saint Helena]] with the astronomer [[Nevil Maskelyne]], the brother-in-law of Lord [[Robert Clive]] of India. Later in the story, [[Jeremiah Dixon]] visits New York City, and attends a secret &amp;quot;Broad-Way&amp;quot; production of the &amp;quot;musical drama&amp;quot;, &#039;&#039;The Black Hole of Calcutta, or, the Peevish Wazir&#039;&#039;, &amp;quot;executed with such a fine respect for detail&amp;amp;nbsp;...&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Pynchon, Thomas, &#039;&#039;Mason &amp;amp; Dixon&#039;&#039;, pp. 562–564.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; [[Kenneth Tynan]] satirically refers to it in the long-running musical revue &#039;&#039;[[Oh! Calcutta!]]&#039;&#039;, which was played on Broadway for more than 7,000 performances. [[Edgar Allan Poe]] makes reference to the &amp;quot;stifling&amp;quot; of the prisoners in the introduction to &amp;quot;[[The Premature Burial]]&amp;quot; (1844).&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=https://www.gutenberg.org/files/2148/2148-h/2148-h.htm#link2H_4_0015|title=The Works of Edgar Allan Poe, Volume 2|access-date=25 December 2015}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The Black Hole is mentioned in &#039;&#039;[[Looking Backward]]&#039;&#039; (1888) by [[Edward Bellamy]] as an example of the depravity of the past.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In a story written by Indian author [[Masti Venkatesha Iyengar]], &amp;quot;Rangana Maduve&amp;quot; (&amp;quot;Ranga&#039;s Marriage&amp;quot;), the narrator Shyama describes Ranga&#039;s house as &#039;the Black Hole of Calcutta&#039; because of the large crowd that had gathered to see Ranga when he came home after completing his studies. If all the people had gone inside, the house would have become as crowded as the Black Hole of Calcutta.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In the science-fiction novel &#039;&#039;[[Omega: The Last Days of the World]]&#039;&#039; (1894), by [[Camille Flammarion]], the Black Hole of Calcutta is mentioned for the suffocating properties of Carbonic-Oxide ([[Carbon Monoxide]]) upon the British soldiers imprisoned in that dungeon. [[Eugene O&#039;Neill]], in &#039;&#039;[[Long Day&#039;s Journey into Night]]&#039;&#039;, Act 4, Jamie says, &amp;quot;Can&#039;t expect us to live in the Black Hole of Calcutta.&amp;quot; [[Patrick O&#039;Brian]] in &#039;&#039;[[The Mauritius Command]]&#039;&#039; (1977) compared Jack Aubrey&#039;s house to the black hole of Calcutta &amp;quot;except that whereas the Hole was hot, dry, and airless&amp;quot;, Aubrey&#039;s cottage &amp;quot;let in draughts from all sides&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In Chapter VII of [[Pearl S. Buck]]&#039;s biography of her father, &#039;&#039;[[Fighting Angel]]&#039;&#039; (1936), she compares the brutality of China&#039;s 1899-1901 [[Boxer Rebellion]] (which she and her family survived while living in China) to that of the Black Hole of Calcutta: &amp;quot;The story of the [[Boxer Rebellion]]&amp;amp;nbsp;... remains, like the tale of the Black Hole of Calcutta, one of the festering spots of history. If the number of people actually dead was small, as such numbers go in these days of wholesale death by accidents and wars, it was the manner of death&amp;amp;nbsp;... that makes the heart shudder and condemn even while the mind can reason and weigh.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Diana Gabaldon]] mentions briefly the incident in her novel &#039;&#039;[[Lord John and the Private Matter]]&#039;&#039; (2003). The Black Hole is also compared with the evil miasma of Calcutta as a whole in Dan Simmons&#039;s novel &#039;&#039;The Song of Kali&#039;&#039;. [[Stephen King]] makes a reference to the Black Hole of Calcutta in his 1983 novel &#039;&#039;[[Christine (King novel)|Christine]]&#039;&#039;, and his 2004 novel &#039;&#039;[[The Dark Tower VI: Song of Susannah|Song of Susannah]]&#039;&#039;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In Chapter V of &#039;&#039;[[King Solomon&#039;s Mines]]&#039;&#039; by [[H. Rider Haggard]] (1885) the Black Hole of Calcutta is mentioned: &amp;quot;This gave us some slight shelter from the burning rays of the sun, but the atmosphere in that amateur grave can be better imagined than described. The Black Hole of Calcutta must have been a fool to it&amp;quot;. In [[John Fante]]&#039;s novel &#039;&#039;[[The Road to Los Angeles]]&#039;&#039; (1985), the main character Arturo Bandini recalls when seeing his place of work: &amp;quot;I thought about the Black Hole of Calcutta.&amp;quot; In &#039;&#039;[[Vanity Fair (novel)|Vanity Fair]]&#039;&#039;, [[William Makepeace Thackeray]] makes a reference to the Black Hole of Calcutta when describing the Anglo-Indian district in London (Chapter LX). [[Swami Vivekananda]] makes a mention of the Black Hole of Calcutta in connection with describing [[John Zephaniah Holwell|Holwell]]&#039;s journey to [[Murshidabad]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite book|title=Complete Works of Swami Vivekananda|last=Vivekananda|first=Swami|publisher=Advaita Ashrama|year=2002|isbn=81-85301-75-1|location=Kolkata|pages=307}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
When discussing deep unconsciousness in her book &#039;&#039;How to be Human&#039;&#039;, [[Ruby Wax]] describes this as: &amp;quot;It&#039;s like the black hole of Calcutta of our souls.&amp;quot;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In &#039;&#039;[[Hellblazer]]: Event Horizon&#039;&#039;, [[John Constantine]] says that a mad Brahmin in the Black Hole made a stone because he wanted revenge. The stone causes one to have insane thoughts and hallucinations.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In &#039;&#039;The Other Side of Morning&#039;&#039; by Stephen Goss (2022), the events of the Black Hole of Calcutta are described from the perspective of John Holwell. The book is the story of Holwell&#039;s life leading up to the incident.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Black Hole of Calcutta is also mentioned in Chapter IV of Sara Jane Lippincott&#039;s book titled &amp;quot;History of my Pets,&amp;quot; in reference to a pet toad (named Phibby) she had left locked in the cabin of a wooden ship. The poor toad was later found suffocated as a result. Upon telling her sympathetic father, he compared the unfortunate blunder to the Black Hole of Calcutta.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Astronomy===&lt;br /&gt;
According to [[Hong-Yee Chiu]], an [[astrophysics|astrophysicist]] at [[NASA]], the Black Hole of Calcutta was the inspiration for the term &#039;&#039;[[black hole]]&#039;&#039;, referring to objects resulting from the [[gravitational collapse]] of very heavy [[star]]s. He recalled hearing the [[physicist]] [[Robert Dicke]] in the early 1960s compare such gravitationally collapsed objects to the prison.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite news |last=Siegfried |first=Tom |url=https://www.sciencenews.org/blog/context/50-years-later-its-hard-say-who-named-black-holes |title=50 years later, it&#039;s hard to say who named black holes |work=Science News |date=23 December 2013}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Prison reform ===&lt;br /&gt;
A minority opinion in the August 1910 report of the Penitentiary Investigating Committee of the State of Texas (USA) referred to the prison conditions in this way:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
{{Blockquote |text=I trust that this report will sufficiently arouse the people of Texas to the atrocities daily heaped upon this mass of thirty-six hundred breathing, human souls, wards of the State, to such an extent that the people will rise up and demand a Called Session of the Legislature of this State in order that legislation may be enacted whereby this organized hell and &amp;quot;Black Hole of Calcutta&amp;quot; will be in the course of a few months only a ghastly memory in the minds of the people. |author=C.

&lt;br /&gt;
== History and Etymology ==&lt;br /&gt;
The name &amp;quot;Doodhpathri&amp;quot; means &amp;quot;Valley of Milk.&amp;quot; It is said that the famous poet and saint of Kashmir, &amp;quot;[[Nund Rishi|Sheikh-Ul-Aalam&amp;quot; Sheikh-Noor-Ud-Din Noorani]], has prayed here, and once, when he was in search of water in the meadows to offer prayers, he pricked the ground with his stick to search for water, and milk came out. He told the milk that it could only be used for drinking and not for [[Wudu|ablution]]. Hearing this, milk at once changed its state to water, and the meadow got its name &amp;quot;Doodhpathri&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=Places of Interest {{!}} District Budgam, Government of Jammu &amp;amp; Kashmir {{!}} India |url=https://budgam.nic.in/places-of-interest/ |access-date=2023-07-29 |language=en-US}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The water that is currently flowing through the meadows has a milky appearance from a distance and remains very cold throughout the year. The lush green grasses over the vast meadows and silver-shining streams running over the large stones further increase its beauty. Doodhpathri is a sloping grassy landscape with a diversity of multicolored flowers up to Chang. The famous [[Tosa Maidan|Tosamaidan]] lies to the west of Doodhpathri.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web|title = The unexplored wealth of Doodhpathri|url = http://www.greaterkashmir.com/news/gk-magazine/the-unexplored-wealth-of-doodhpathri/155105.html|website = www.greaterkashmir.com|accessdate = 2015-10-13}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Geography ==&lt;br /&gt;
Doodhpathri lies in a bowl shaped valley in the [[Pir Panjal Range]] of the [[Himalayas]], at an altitude of {{convert|2730|m|ft}} above sea level. It is an alpine valley covered with snow-clad mountains and meadows of [[pine]], [[fir]] and [[Deodar cedar|deodar]]. The natural meadows, which are covered with snow in winter, allow the growth of wild flowers such as daisies, [[Myosotis|forget-me-nots]], and [[Ranunculus|buttercups]] during spring and summer.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Demographics ==&lt;br /&gt;
Doodhpathri does not have any permanent settlements, and during the winter months, it is inaccessible due to the severe snowfall. Shepherds from the plains of the district [[Budgam district|of Budgam]] send their cattle to Doodhpathri in the summer for grazing, and they tend to stay there seasonally for approximately six months.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Access ==&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
==Education and career==&lt;br /&gt;
Chitnis completed his Master of Science in physics at [[Indian Institute of Technology Mumbai]] in 1983. Subsequently, he obtained a Master of Arts in physics from the [[Rice University]] in Houston, in 1985 and a doctor of philosophy (PhD) from the [[University of California-Berkeley]] in 1991&amp;lt;ref name=ICGEBchitnis /&amp;gt; after which he worked at the [[National Institutes of Health]] in [[Bethesda, Maryland]] as a Fogarty International Fellow from 1991 to 1995. Returning to India, he joined the malaria research group in ICGEB in 1996 as the principal investigator and worked there until 2014 when he was appointed as the head of the Malaria Parasite Biology and Vaccines Unit at the [[Institut Pasteur]] in [[Paris]].&amp;lt;ref name=pasteurchitnis /&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Chitnis has published over 100 international papers and has three patents pertaining to malaria vaccines.&amp;lt;ref name=pubmedchitnis&amp;gt;{{cite web|title=Index of scientific articles by Chetan E. Chitnis on Pubmed|url=https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?term=Chitnis%20CE%5BAuthor%5D&amp;amp;cauthor=true&amp;amp;cauthor_uid=28306665|publisher=PubMed|accessdate=31 March 2017}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Research interest ==&lt;br /&gt;
Chitnis&#039;s work is predominantly in the areas of molecular [[parasitology]] and vaccine development for malaria by understanding the molecular and cellular biology aspects of host-parasite interactions. His work has assisted in the development of antibodies against &#039;&#039;[[Plasmodium|Plasmodium spp.]]&#039;&#039; and widened the understanding of the parasite-binding proteins and their interactions with the [[Duffy antigen system|Duffy blood group antigen]] of the host red blood cells. Furthermore, his research group is involved in the studies of molecular signaling during the [[Plasmodium falciparum biology#Erythrocytic stage|blood stage]] of &#039;&#039;[[Plasmodium falciparum]]&#039;&#039;, especially the process of invasion and egress from [[erythrocytes]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
At ICGEB, Chitnis has also established a protein production facility for the production of malaria vaccines based on novel concepts.&lt;br /&gt;

Named after the sacred [[Lake Manasarovar|Manasarovar]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;kas_lake&amp;quot;&amp;gt;http://kashmir-tourism.com/jammu-kashmir-lakes-mansabal-lake.htm, Manasbal  Lake&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The lake is encircled by four villages, viz., Jarokbal, Kondabal, Nesbal (situated on the north-eastern side of the lake), and Gratbal.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web|date=2015-03-13|title=Neglect, of Manasbal Lake|url=https://www.greaterkashmir.com/news/opinion/neglect-of-manasbal-lake/|access-date=2020-10-10|website=Greater Kashmir|language=en-US}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; It&#039;s renowned for its lotus blooms ([[Nelumbo nucifera]]) at the periphery of the lake (blooms during July and August) adds to the beauty of the clear waters of the lake. The [[Mughal garden]], called the Jaroka Bagh (meaning bay window), built by [[Nur Jahan]], overlooks the lake.&amp;lt;ref name=Jam_kash&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=http://www.indiainfoweb.com/jammu-kashmir/lakes/mansabal-lake.html |title=Manasbal Lake, Manasbal Lake in Jammu, Lakes in Jammu, Jammu Kashmir Lake Tours, Travelling in Jammu Kashmir |access-date=2012-04-25 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120214113038/http://www.indiainfoweb.com/jammu-kashmir/lakes/mansabal-lake.html |archive-date=2012-02-14 }} Mansbal lake&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The lake is a good place for [[birdwatching]] as it is one of the largest natural spawning grounds of Aquatic birds in Kashmir and has the epithet &amp;quot;supreme gem of all Kashmir Lakes&amp;quot;.&amp;lt;ref name=manas_bal&amp;gt;{{cite web |url=http://www.ilec.or.jp/database/asi/asi-57.html |title=Manasbal Lake |access-date=2012-04-25 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20120303215814/http://www.ilec.or.jp/database/asi/asi-57.html |archive-date=2012-03-03 }} Manasbal Lake&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;http://www.mascottravels.com/kashmirlakes.htm kashmir lakes&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The rootstocks of the lotus plant, which grows extensively in the lake, are harvested and marketed, and also eaten by the local people.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;kas_lake&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Access==&lt;br /&gt;
The lake is approached from [[Srinagar]] by a {{convert|30|km|adj=on}} road via Shadipora, Nasim, and Ganderbal. The road to [[Wular Lake]], the largest lake in [[Kashmir]], passes through this lake via [[Safapora]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;kas_lake&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
It is also easy to reach Manasbal from Sonmarg via Ganderbal.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
It is believed to be an ancient lake by locals, but exact dating is yet to be done. Close to the northern shore of the lake are the ruins of a 17th-century fort, called the Jharokha Bagh, built by the [[Mughal Empire|Mughal]]s, used in the past by caravans traveling from [[Punjab region|Punjab]] to [[Kashmir]].&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;kas_lake&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name = manas_bal/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Topography ==&lt;br /&gt;
The lake is surrounded by the Baladar mountains on the east, by an elevated plateau known as &#039;Karewa&#039; comprising [[Lake|lacustrine]], [[fluviatile]], and [[loessic]] deposits on the north, and bounded by the Ahtung hills in the south, which are used for limestone extraction.&amp;lt;ref name = manas_bal/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Along the course of the [[Jhelum River]], the Manasbal Lake falls under the third series of high altitude lakes of the [[Himalayas]] (designated concerning their origin, altitudinal situation and nature of biota they contain) as the valley lakes ([[Dal Lake|Dal]], [[Anchar Lake]], Manasbal etc.) situated at the altitudinal zone of {{convert|1585|–|1600|m|ft|abbr=on}}; the other two types being the high altitude [[wetlands]] (altitude {{convert|1585|-|4000|m|ft|abbr=on|disp=or}} amsl) of the second series of lakes (Nilnag) in the lower fringes of [[Pir Panjal]] ranges right amid [[pine]] forests, and the glaciated lakes of the first series situated on the inner Himalayas between {{convert|3000|–|4000|m|ft|abbr=on}} amsl (Alipathar, [[Sheshnag Lake|Sheshnag]], Kounsarnag, [[Tar Sar]], [[Marsar Lake|Marsar]], [[Vishansar Lake|Vishansar]], [[Gangbal]], [[Krishansar Lake|Kishan Sar]], [[Tso Kar|Kyo Tso]], [[Pangong Tso]], etc.) which have probably originated during the third Himalayan [[glaciation]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;http://www.ramsar.org/wurc/wurc_mgtplan_india_wular.pdf Comprehensive  Management, Action Plan for Wular lake, Kashmir&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; A fissure is reported to be running from east to west at the centre of the lake.&amp;lt;ref name = ski_sport&amp;gt;http://www.india9.com/i9show/-Jammu-and-Kashmir/Manasbal-Lake-15415.htm Manasbal Lake&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
===Land use===&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Manasbal lake3.jpg|thumb|right|250px|Manasbal lake]]&lt;br /&gt;
Important vegetation in the catchment of the lake comprises Orchards ([[apple]], [[mulberry]]), some [[Platanus]] (Chinar trees), and [[Salix]] trees. Safar, adjacent to Safapur, contains an extensive grove of [[Platanus orientalis|Chinar]] trees, known as Badshah Boni, royal Chinar, and was planted in imitation of the [[Naseem Bagh|Nasim Bagh]] in Srinagar. [[Maize]], [[Mustard plant|mustard]], and [[wheat]] are generally the main crops grown in the agricultural lands of the catchment. In recent years, land use patterns have changed with more land used for horticulture and also diversion of land for construction purposes.&amp;lt;ref name = manas_bal/&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref name = Jam_kash/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Hydrology==&lt;br /&gt;
The [[drainage basin]] for the lake, covering an area of {{convert|10|km2|sqmi|abbr=on}}, has no major inlet channels and is thus fed mainly by precipitation (rain and snow fall) and springs (more than 1,200 springs).&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;http://www.dailyexcelsior.com/web1/07nov26/news.htm{{Dead link|date=March 2020 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }}, Dal look for Manasbal lake soon&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Lake water outflows to the [[Jhelum River]] through a regulated outflow channel. The lake is the source of water for fishing and for obtaining food and fodder plants.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;kas_lake&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The lake not only provides a source of water but also offers facilities for [[navigation]] and transportation, [[fisheries]], harvesting of economically useful plants, sightseeing, tourism, and recreation.&amp;lt;ref name = manas_bal/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Water quality issues==&lt;br /&gt;
Some of the [[water quality]] parameters reported relate&amp;lt;ref name = manas_bal/&amp;gt;  to:&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*The lake is [[monomictic|a monomictic]] mixing type and develops [[thermal stratification]] from March to November. The maximum depth of the [[Thermocline]] is {{convert|9|m}}. [[Hypolimnion]] temperature ranges from {{convert|8.5|C}} to {{convert|11|C}}.&lt;br /&gt;
*pH value varied from a maximum of 8.8 on the surface to a minimum of 7.7 at {{convert|11|m}} depth in year over the 12 months.&lt;br /&gt;
*DO [mg l-1] value varied from a maximum of 10.4 on the surface to a minimum of 2.2 at the bottom in year over the 12 months.&lt;br /&gt;
*Maximum [[Nitrogen]] Concentration (NH4-N [micro l-1] of 13 on the surface and 120 at the bottom of the lake has been reported.&lt;br /&gt;
*The lake water temperature varied from a minimum of {{convert|6|C}} in January to {{convert|27.5|C}} in June/July at the surface and correspondingly {{convert|6|C}} and {{convert|19|C}}, at the bottom of the lake.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
=== Flora===&lt;br /&gt;
Within the lake water, the [[flora]] recorded comprises the following.&amp;lt;ref name = manas_bal/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Emerged [[macrophyte]]s, floating macrophytes, submerged macrophytes, and [[phytoplankton]]. In the reported period, the [[biomass]] production due to [[plankton]] was a maximum of 864.9 milligrams/cm&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt; in June, with a minimum of 54 milligrams/cm&amp;lt;sup&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sup&amp;gt; in December.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Fauna==&lt;br /&gt;
The fauna recorded in the lake includes  [[zooplankton]], [[benthos]], and [[fish]]. The economically important fishes reported are:&amp;lt;ref name = manas_bal/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Schizothorax niger, S. esocinus, Cyprinus carpio specularis+, C. carpio communis+ and Neomacheilus latius.&lt;br /&gt;
Note: + considered economically important&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Cyprinus]], an exotic species, has proliferated extensively after its introduction in 1956. A decline in the population of indigenous species due to rapid changes in the environment was reported.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Deterioration of the lake ==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Eutrophication]] was recorded and confirmed by the test results in the lake. [[Ceratophyllum demersum]] recorded an increase in the lake area. Dense mono-specific stands have been created by the [[weed]]s. Further, a decrease in species diversity has occurred, an increase in the period of [[Hypoxia (environmental)|anoxic]] conditions, and accumulation of H&amp;lt;sub&amp;gt;2&amp;lt;/sub&amp;gt;S in deeper waters have been reported. [[Pollution]] has also taken place due to a lack of wastewater treatment plants.&amp;lt;ref name = manas_bal/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[World Wide Fund for Nature]] (WWF), which conducted an extensive survey of the lake in 1997, attributed the reasons for the deterioration of the lake, particularly on its banks, gradually turning it into a stinking [[marsh]], to the following.&amp;lt;ref name = shafi_wani&amp;gt;http://www.greaterkashmir.com/full_story.asp?Date=23_8_2007&amp;amp;ItemID=57&amp;amp;cat=1, Community participation makes it possible, Arif Shafi Wani&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
# Large-scale illegal encroachment on the periphery of [[Ganderbal]] and Qazibagh sides in the form of hundreds of trees, vegetable gardens, toilets, residential structures, garbage dumping sites&lt;br /&gt;
# Siltation due to noxious run-off from adjoining fields, stone quarries, and lime kilns;&lt;br /&gt;
# The flow of [[sewage]] and the use of [[fertilizers]] in the agricultural fields in its adjoining villages&lt;br /&gt;
# 80 per cent of the lake was seen under the thick blanket of weed&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
WWF recommended several measures to be undertaken for the restoration of the lake.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Lake restoration works==&lt;br /&gt;
It was only in the year 2007 that lake restoration measures could be undertaken with the formation of the Wular-Manasbal Development Authority (WMDA) under the Government of Jammu and Kashmir.&amp;lt;ref name = shafi_wani/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
WMDA undertook the following measures for restoration and to improve the general environment of the lake.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
*Removing the illegal constructions;&lt;br /&gt;
*Pedestrian walkway/pathway construction around the lake periphery of {{convert|11|km|mi|abbr=on}}&lt;br /&gt;
*Manual de-weeding&lt;br /&gt;
*[[Dredging]]&lt;br /&gt;
*Demarcation of the lake&lt;br /&gt;
*Construction of STPs and&lt;br /&gt;
*Regulation of [[limestone]] extraction and [[afforestation]] of mountains to restore the lake&#039;s glory&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Manasbal lake2.jpg|thumb|right|300px|Manasbal lake from the shade of a Willow tree]]&lt;br /&gt;
The chief executive officer of the WMDA has been reported as stating that:&lt;br /&gt;
{{Blockquote|It was after long deliberations with locals that we could start work on the lake. We made the locals understand that Manasbal’s conservation was imperative not only from tourism point of view, but for their livelihood too. Now, there is community participation in the restoration process.}}&lt;br /&gt;
A [[Shikara]] operator of the Lake area has reported that &amp;quot;there has been a lot of improvement in its condition&amp;quot;.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Hindu temple==&lt;br /&gt;
[[File:Anicient Temple.jpg|thumb|An ancient Hindu temple near the eastern and western shores of Manasbal Lake in Kashmir]]&lt;br /&gt;
Wullar-Manasbal Development Authority has reported the unearthing of an ancient [[Hindu]] temple on the eastern shore of the Manasbal Lake, built in the traditional architectural style of ancient [[Kashmir]]. The lower half of the temple, which was buried in the earth, was found during the restoration works undertaken for the lake. Dated to 800-900 AD, during [[Avantivarman (Utpala dynasty)|Avantivarman]] or [[Sankaravarman]] rule, based on epigraphic writings, the temple, constructed in local grey stone, has a unique pyramid-shaped rooftop with [[Corinthian order|Corinthian]] or floral motifs. It is stated to be a new pilgrimage attraction for pilgrims who visit the cave shrine at [[Amarnath Temple|Amarnath]] and the [[Kheer Bhawani]] temple at Tulmulla in [[Ganderbal]] district.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;http://news.webindia123.com/news/ar_showdetails.asp?id=711180334&amp;amp;cat=&amp;amp;n_date=20071118 Unique eighth century Hindu temple restored in Kashmir&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Other tourist attractions in the lake area are the Manasbal Temple, the ruins of a terraced Mughal garden and sculptured stones of some [[Sufi shrine]]s on the banks of the lake.&amp;lt;ref name = ski_sport/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Naval training of NCC==&lt;br /&gt;
[[National Cadet Corps (India)|National Cadet Corps]] (NCC) started its activities in Kashmir in 1965, but the training facility at Manasbal Lake was abandoned in 1989 due to the deterioration of the security situation in Jammu and Kashmir.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=https://www.hindustantimes.com/videos/news/jk-indian-navy-to-begin-ncc-training-at-manasbal-lake-after-3-decade-gap-101663160265205.html|title=Indian Navy resumes NCC cadet training at Kashmir&#039;s Manasbal lake after 33 years}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=https://theprint.in/india/manasbal-lake-restored-after-33-years-for-ncc-naval-wing-training-camp/1128972/|title=Manasbal Lake restored after 33 years for NCC Naval Wing training camp |website=[[ThePrint]] }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; In September 2022, [[Indian Navy|the Indian Navy]] revived its naval training of the [[National Cadet Corps (India)|National Cadet Corps]] at the Manasbal lake.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=https://www.ndtv.com/india-news/jammu-and-kashmir-naval-training-centre-at-manasbal-lake-in-ganderbal-revived-after-33-years-3343822|title=Naval Training Centre At Jammu And Kashmir Lake Revived After 33 Years}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; 100 NCC cadets, including girls from various colleges of Jammu and Kashmir, participate in the camp. A suitable camping site along with adequate infrastructure has been provided by the Manasbal Development Authority on the lakefront. The cadets are trained in various activities like boat pulling, sailing, signalling, and ship modelling.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=https://www.thehindu.com/news/national/other-states/after-33-years-kashmirs-pristine-manasbal-lake-opens-for-ncc-cadets-again/article65890337.ece|title=After 33 years, Kashmir&#039;s pristine Manasbal Lake opens for NCC cadets again|website=[[The Hindu]] }}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Earlier, due to closure, these activities were carried out in [[Nagrota]] and [[Mansar Lake]], Jammu.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{cite web|url=https://www.tribuneindia.com/news/j-k/after-33-yrs-navy-training-starts-at-manasbal-lake-431729|title=After 33 years, Navy training starts at Manasbal Lake in Ganderbal district}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Water skiing ==&lt;br /&gt;
The weather is pleasant in May and August, when the lake offers water [[skiing]], which is now becoming an increasingly popular activity in many rivers and lakes in India. Jammu &amp;amp; Kashmir Tourism Department (JKTD) provides essential [[water skiing]] equipment and trained instructors to adventure seekers.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;http://www.vacationsindia.com/water-skiing-in-india.html {{Webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20150323170605/http://www.vacationsindia.com/water-skiing-in-india.html |date=23 March 2015 }}, Water Skiing in India&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; The lake&#039;s surface sheen and its long length and width attract tourists to the water skiing sport.&amp;lt;ref name = ski_sport/&amp;gt; However, the noise and turbulence of waterskiing boats will change the environment of this last quiet lake and could risk taking away one of its main attractions: Peace. There is still a discussion going on whether or not a more environmentally sensitive form of [[sustainable tourism]] would be more appropriate for this special lake, not to turn it into a second Dal Lake.&lt;br /&gt;

He was also a cricket coach.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Cricket career==&lt;br /&gt;
He was picked to play for India against West Indies in 1978–79, but after two tests he was dropped. He was again brought back the following season for the series against [[Kim Hughes]]&#039; Australian team, but again discarded after two Tests. In the 5th test against Australia at [[Eden Gardens]], he played a crucial role in saving India from imminent defeat. India required 247 to win on the last day and at one point was struggling with 4 wickets down for 123. Four key batsmen - [[Sunil Gavaskar|Gavaskar]], [[Dilip Vengsarkar|Vengsarkar]], [[Gundappa Vishwanath|Vishwanath]] and [[Chetan Chauhan]] were already back in the pavilion when Narasimha Rao provided a match-saving partnership with [[Yashpal Sharma (cricketer)|Yashpal Sharma]] who scored an unbeaten 85. India ended up with a score of 200 for 4 to draw the Test.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web| access-date = 1 July 2009| publisher=ESPNcricinfo| title=Calcutta Test Scorecard - Ind/Aus: 1979-80| url=http://www.cricinfo.com/india/engine/match/63245.html}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; This was the last Test match played by Narasimha Rao. As an alert close-in fielder, however he did well in picking up eight catches. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Rao captained [[Hyderabad cricket team|Hyderabad]] in [[Ranji Trophy]] from [[1977–78 Ranji Trophy|1977-78]] to [[1987–88 Ranji Trophy|1987-88]]. In the [[1984–85 Ranji Trophy|1984-85 season]], he scored his career best 160* against Kerala.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[https://static.espncricinfo.com/db/ARCHIVE/1980S/1984-85/IND_LOCAL/RANJI/SOUTH/HYD_KERALA_RJI-S_30DEC1984-01JAN1985.html 160*, Hyderabad v Kerala, Secunderabad, 1984-85]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; A failure to win this match due to a delayed declaration was a factor in Hyderabad failing to qualify from the South Zone.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[https://static.espncricinfo.com/db/ARCHIVE/1980S/1984-85/IND_LOCAL/RANJI/SOUTH/RJI-S_1984-85_TABLE.html 1984-85 South Zone points table]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; [[Vivek Jaisimha]] replaced him as captain for [[1985–86 Ranji Trophy|1985-86]] but Hyderabad once again failed to qualify.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[https://static.espncricinfo.com/db/ARCHIVE/1980S/1985-86/IND_LOCAL/RANJI/SOUTH/RJI-S_1985-86_TABLE.html 1985-86 South Zone points table]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt; Back as captain in [[1986–87 Ranji Trophy|1986-87]], Rao captained Hyderabad to the Ranji title for the second time in their history.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[https://static.espncricinfo.com/db/ARCHIVE/1980S/1986-87/IND_LOCAL/RANJI/KNOCK-OUTS/DELHI_HYD_RJI-FINAL_21-26MAR1987.html Delhi v Hyderabad, Ranji final, 1986-87]&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
In first class cricket Rao scored 4,124 runs (avg 47.40) and took 218 wickets (avg 24.20).&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==Coaching career==&lt;br /&gt;
Rao returned to competitive international cricket albeit as an assistant coach of the [[Ireland Cricket team]] for the [[2011 ICC World Cup]]. In December 2012, Rao became the first Indian cricketer to be appointed [[Member of the Order of the British Empire]] (MBE) for his contribution for promoting the [[sport]] and also for community service through cricket during the testing times faced by the ethnic community in [[Northern Ireland]].&lt;br /&gt;

&lt;br /&gt;
After Rao retired, he set up the St Johns Cricket Academy which  produced many stars like [[VVS Laxman]], [[Mithali Raj]], [[Bavanaka Sandeep]], [[Hanuma Vihari]] and [[Tarun Nethula]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web|title=From Hyderabad to the North West: The fascinating life of Bobby Rao|url=https://www.derryjournal.com/sport/cricket/hyderabad-north-west-fascinating-life-bobby-rao-2968464|access-date=2020-09-14|website=www.derryjournal.com|date=11 September 2020 |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;

The temple complex is spread over {{convert|100|acre|km2}} in the Hasampur Hills foothills in village Hasampur, near [[Neem-Ka-Thana]], and [[Sikar]], 20&amp;amp;nbsp;km from [[National Highway 8 (India)]] [[Kotputli]], another noted Devi shrine in the region, both just outside [[Sikar]].&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |title=SHRI MATA MANSA DEVI SHRINE BOARD |url=http://mansadevi.nic.in/hist.htm |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20090609021927/http://mansadevi.nic.in/hist.htm |archive-date=2009-06-09 |website=mansadevi.nic.in}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[https://books.google.com/books?id=hMPYnfS_R90C&amp;amp;dq=Mansa+Devi&amp;amp;pg=PA83 Mansa Devi] &#039;&#039;Contemporary Hinduism: ritual, culture, and practice&#039;&#039;, by Robin Rinehart.

&lt;br /&gt;
It is one of the prominent [[Shakti]] temples of [[North India]]. Thousands of devotees visit the shrine from various parts of the country, and especially during the [[Navratra]] fair, this number rises to [[lakh]]s every day for the [[Navratra|nine auspicious days]].&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== History ==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Maharaja]] Mittal God of Hasampur constructed the present main temple of Shri Mansa Devi in 965 AD. The main temple is 200 meters from the Hasampur village.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Durga Mata Marbel Murti was constructed by Seth Ramavatar Muchhal, the then Maharaja Hasampur in the year 1982. This temple had the patronage of the Rajasthan State. After the merger of princely states into [[PEPSU]] the Patronage of State Govt. ended and the temples remained neglected.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Raja of Rajasthan then appointed [[pujari]] as ‘Keshavpanditji’ of this temple whose duty was to worship the deity of the temple. After the merging of the princely State into Pepsu these [[pujari]]s became independent in the matter of controlling and managing the affairs of the temple and its land. They could neither maintain this temple nor provide necessary facilities to the visiting devotees, thus the condition of the temple deteriorated day by day. So much so that there were no proper arrangements for pilgrims visiting the temple during [[Navaratra]] melas. The complex was neglected until the establishment of the Board.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Navratra Melas ==&lt;br /&gt;
[[Navratra]] festival is celebrated in the [[mandir]] for nine days. Twice a year millions of devotees visit the temple. Shardiya Every year two [[Navaratri|Navratra]] [[Melā|melas]] are organized at the shrine complex in the month of [[Ashvin (month)|Ashvin]] (Shardiya, [[Sharad (Indian season)|Sharad]] or Winter [[Navratra]]), and another in the month of Chaitra (Spring [[Navratra]]) by the Shrine Board.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
[[Lakhs]] of devotees pay obeisance during the Navratra melas held in Ashvin and Chaitra and temples remain open throughout the day. These melas are of 9 days duration each and conclude on the 9th day. The Shrine Board makes arrangements for the comfortable stay and [[Darśana|darshan]] of the devotees, including the provision of &#039;&#039;[[Chhowldari]]&#039;&#039;, tented accommodation, [[Dhurrie|durries]], blankets, temporary toilets, temporary dispensaries, mela police post and lines. During the mela, Duty Magistrates and Nodal Officers are appointed to look after the devotees and smooth conduct of the mela. On the 7th and 8th day of Navratras, the temples of the Shrine Complex are closed only for two hours during the night for cleaning maintenance. For the rest of Navratras, the temples remain open for [[Darśana|darshan]] from 5 a.m. to 10 p.m.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;{{Cite web |date=2011-09-29 |title=Thousands throng Mansa Devi Shrine |url=https://indianexpress.com/article/cities/chandigarh/thousands-throng-mansa-devi-shrine/ |access-date=2024-03-26 |website=The Indian Express |language=en}}&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://cities.expressindia.com/fullstory.php?newsid=227538 Thousands of devotees thronged the Mansa Devi shrine on the first day of the nine-day ‘Chaitra Navratra Mela’...]{{dead link|date=February 2023|bot=medic}}{{cbignore|bot=medic}} [[Indian Express]], 20 March 2007.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;[http://www.indianexpress.com/res/web/pIe/ie/daily/19990320/ige20104.html Lakhs attend Navratra fair]{{dead link|date=May 2018 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} [[Indian Express]], 20 March 1999.&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
== Temple management ==&lt;br /&gt;
The temple complex and its environment are presently looked after by the Shri Mata Mansa Devi Shrine Board (SMMDSB) Rajasthan. In view of the popularity of the temple for its mythological and historical significance, the Rajasthan Government by an enactment (Rajasthan Act No. 14 of 1991, christened as Shri Mata Mansa Devi Shrine Act 1991) took over the control of this temple to provide for better infrastructure development, management, administration and governance of the shrine and its endowments, including attached lands and buildings. A Shrine Board with the Chief Minister of Rajasthan as chairman was constituted for the running of the Temple and preserving the heritage of the region.&lt;br /&gt;

==Location==&lt;br /&gt;
The tomb is located in the Sira town which is a [[taluk]] in [[Tumkur District]] in the [[Province of Sira]] in the [[States and union territories of India|Indian State]] of Karnataka. It is a municipal town on the National Highway (NH-48) (from [[Bangalore]] to [[Pune]]), and is {{Convert|123|km|mi|0}} away from Bangalore.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Michell2013&amp;quot;/&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
==History==&lt;br /&gt;
Sira was near the eastern edge of the region under the control of the [[Deccan sultanates|Bijapur Sultans]] from 1638 to 1687, before Aurangzeb dismissed them and expanded the Mughal empire. Sira was also the place where Hyder Ali began his career, before seeking employment with the Wodeyars and later organizing a coup to dismiss them to found the Mysore Sultanate.&amp;lt;ref name=&amp;quot;Michell2013&amp;quot;/&amp;gt; His son Tipu Sultan forced the relocation of most Muslims from Sira to a new town he founded on the island of Seringapatam. This led to a large decline of Sira.&amp;lt;ref&amp;gt;Rice, B. L. (2001), Gazetteer of Mysore. Asian Educational Services, pp. 198–199&amp;lt;/ref&amp;gt;&lt;br /&gt;
