Al-Biruni and Ibn Battuta were two notable travelers to India in the 11th-14th centuries who wrote extensively about their experiences. Al-Biruni spent years studying Indian languages, texts, and culture. Ibn Battuta undertook a 29-year journey through Africa and Asia, including time spent in India under the emperor Muhammad bin Tughlaq. Bernier traveled in the late 16th century and provided critical observations about India, comparing it unfavorably to Europe and highlighting the lack of private land ownership. All three travelers provided insights into Indian society, culture, economics, and the treatment of women.

4 Songhai Empire to the 21st century Su2014Robert Ehrlich
The rise and fall of the Songhai Empire.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Indian communities in which a recently widowed
woman would immolate herself on her husband’s
funeral pyre. The practice had been banned
several times, with the current ban dating to
1829 by the British.
• The term is derived from the original name of
the goddess Sati, also known as Dakshayani, who
self-immolated because she was unable to bear
her father Daksha's humiliation of her (living)
husband Shiva. The term may also be used to
refer to the widow. The term sati is now
sometimes interpreted as "chaste woman."

writers often highlighted the treatment of
women as a crucial marker of difference
between Western and Eastern societies.
• Women's lives not only revolved around
sati. They were also crucial in both
agricultural and non-agricultural
production.
• They even participated in commercial
activities.
