ICF, moc. Prior research on fundamentalist religious movements has focused attention on the complicated relationship between gender, family and religion. Using data from a nationally representative survey of 30, Hindu and Muslim women, this study compares the daily public and private behaviors of women in India to examine how gender and family norms are shaped in the context of communalized identity politics. Results indicate that Muslim women are more likely to engage in veiling and less likely to venture outside the home for recreation and employment. However, religious differences are absent when attention is directed at private behaviors such as household decision making power, gender segregation within households, and discrimination against daughters. Results underscore the multidimensionality of gender.

Indian leaders from within Pakatan Harapan have come out to criticise the arrest of seven people, including two DAP assemblypersons, for alleged links to the Liberation Tigers of Tamil Eelam, a rebel group in Sri Lanka designated as a terrorist organisation by Malaysia. They added that the usage of the Securities Offences Special Measures Act Sosma , which allows for detention without trial, cannot be justified under the Harapan government. The arrest and detention of two DAP state assemblypersons and five others for alleged links with the LTTE by the police are beyond comprehension. Most of its leaders have been killed or imprisoned. More than 10 years have elapsed since the civil war.
Hundreds of thousands of Malaysian Hindus, some piercing their skin with hooks and skewers to show their devotion, gathered in temples across the country on Monday to mark Thaipusam. The annual Hindu festival sees believers carry offerings to places of worship to the deity Murugan and marks the day when his mother - the goddess Parvathi - gave him a powerful lance to fight demons. It is observed mainly in countries with significant populations of ethnic Tamils - descended from people who originally came from southern India - including Malaysia and neighbouring Singapore.
