The contemporary Muslim situation in India: a long-term view - 2008 - p.45-53. - 12 Jan
Even as they are regarded as the other of the nation, a new "citizen politics" seems to be taking shape among Muslims in India today, articulating demands relating to jobs, income, education and so on. This new politics - part of a process of secularisation - is radically different from the pre-independence separatist trends. Except at the surface, in the form of demands for reservations and quotas, there is nothing in common in the nature and content of Muslim politics then and now. - Reproduced.
