This book examines the notion of citizenship for Muslims who were displaced after the Godhra violence in Gujarat in 2002. Sanjeevini Badigar Lokhande addresses the migration-displacement debate by chronicling what happened and seeks to locate the rights claims of the displaced in the dominant debates on citizenship.
When violence occurs in democracies it is often characterized as an aberration. The state that saw human rights violations and failure of law and order in Gujarat in 2002 emerged, even if by its own admission, as a model for good governance. Communal Violence, Forced Migration and the State, through an account of displaced Muslims, challenges this notion. Through the unlikely yet probing lens of displacement, it offers fresh insight into communal violence and is an important resource for the emerging domain of forced migration and the changing nature of the state in a globalized world.
