    The 1920’s in India witnessed the publishing of an inflammatory book vilifying Prophet Muhammad (SAW) thereby adding fuel to the existing Muslim/Hindu tensions. The British Raj ruled India and the creation of Pakistan was still a distant dream in the hearts of the Indian Muslims. The Muslim population was understandably incensed and mass protests were held. Prashaad Prataab had authored Rangeela Rasool (The Colourful Prophet), under the pen name of Pandit Chamupati Lal. The word rangeela means ‘colourful’ but can be understood in this context to mean ‘playboy’. [Nauzbillah]…

    The third Millennium Development Goal is to promote gender equality and empower women by the year 2015. One of the main parts of this goal is to eliminate gender disparity in primary and secondary education (UN MDGs). However, in order to do this the first goal, end poverty and hunger, must also be accomplished. Poverty is a major barrier to women who must choose between giving what little money they have to either their family or their education. Some countries, such as Egypt and Tunisia, have given more rights to women who are now active in the workforce and able to serve as CEOs (Otas 2011).
