His answers to these questions shed new light on the growth of popular organisations in princely India, on relations between the Hindu and Sikh princes and the communal parties in British India, and on governance as a factor in communal riot production and prevention. 606 $aCommunalism$zIndia$xHistory$y20th century 606 $aReligion and politics$zIndia$xHistory$y20th century 607 $aIndia$xHistory$y20th century 615 0$aCommunalism$xHistory 615 0$aReligion and politics$xHistory 676 $a305.6/0954/09041 700 $aCopland$b Ian$f1943-$01611648 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910816666803321 996 $aState, community, and neighbourhood in princely North India, c. 1900-1950$93939998 997 $aUNINA
