Jaiswal marriages in Hyderabad have experienced a lot of changes during the past decade.  The changes are both good and bad.  Here are some thoughts, if you have any, do share them in comments. 

Positive changes in Jaiswal marriages and customs in Hyderabad

• The problem of dowry to marry off a girl seems to be decreasing.
• Intercaste marriages are not rare among Jaiswal community members in Hyderabad.  It is no longer a taboo for Jaiswal women to marry men from other Hindu communities.  Jaiswal women from Hyderabad are getting married to men from Telugu/South Indian background.
• In rare cases, Jaiswal women have married Muslim men and unfortunately the success rate has not been great.  A Jaiswal woman marrying a Muslim man would mean a conversion of religion from Hinduism to Islam and eating beef and this is still avoided by most Jaiswal community members.

Negative changes in Jaiswal marriages and customs in Hyderabad

• There was a time in Hyderabad where Jaiswal sabha community used to talk about samuhik marriages.  Now marriages have become a chance for people to show off their wealth.  The rich might enjoy this show off behavior briefly for a few days but what about the middle class and poor Jaiswal community members.  Why not show off Jaiswal sanskaar instead?
• Relationships have become more shallow and breakable.  Fights among close relatives over money or power have become disturbingly severe and common.  In fact, the people themselves have changed not only in Jaiswal community but Hyderabad itself.
• Arranged marriages of girls who are from a poor background or not the best looks are a nightmare for parents.  
• Women dancing during marriages was rare.  Nowadays this is common.

Jaiswal brothers, Prem Raj and Anand Raj were the owners of the home in Doodhbowli Hyderabad that held precious items from Mughal and Roman period

Ashrafis from home owned by Jaiswal brothers

Five people were arrested on Tuesday for stealing antique gold and silver worth Rs 5 to 7 crore. Sources said that the treasure had been unearthed from an old house at Doodhbowli under the Kamatipura police station limits.

The police has seized 1.7 kg of gold coins and ornaments and 4.6 kg of silver ornaments, which archaeologists say belong to the Mughal period and ancient Roman times.  The treasure was discovered from a wall when the house was being demolished for reconstruction.

Police commissioner Anurag Sharma said that labour contractors Mohammed Rafeeq and Abdul Bari, along with five labourers, stole the treasure and distributed it among themselves instead of informing the house owner and government authorities.

Sharma said that while the market value of the seized material was about Rs 50 lakh, its estimated antique value would be about Rs 5-7 crore. “As we are told by archaeologists, the gold and silver ornaments were crafted during the time of the Mughals. Thus they have great archaeological and historical importance. The gold coins or ‘ashrafis’ belong to the Mughal period while a few other coins are from ancient Rome,” he added.

Additional deputy commissioner of police, Commissioner’s Task Force, P. Rameshaiah said that the house in old city where the treasure was found, belonged to one Satish Kumar who had inherited it from his grandfather late Vishwanath. “The house was purchased by Vishwanath around 50 years ago from two brothers Prem Raj and Anand Raj,” Rameshaiah added.

The labour contractors, Rafeeq, 55, from Kishanbagh and Bari, 58, from Phoolbagh, had taken a contract to demolish the house in the third week of October. They had employed the other accused, S. Ramulu, 47, Mohammed Muneer, 55, and Mallesh, 23, for the work, said Ramehsaiah adding that two other accused, Ramulu and Yadaiah, were absconding.

“While demolishing the house, they found the treasure hidden in the wall of the western side room of the house. Twenty per cent was distributed among the labourers and the remaining 80 per cent was taken by the contractors Bhari and Rafeeq,” Rameshaiah added.

Cases have been booked against the accused under IPC Section 380 for theft and section 20 of the Indian Treasure Trove Act. They were handed over to the Kamatipura police for further action. Sources said that the treasure would be handed over to the state archaeological department.

Anand Raj Varma, former AP Jaiswal Sabha President and former Principal of Anwar Ul Uloom writes Itihas Ke Jharoke Mein.  

Anand Raj Varma chronicles the history of Hyderabad right from Qutub Shahi kings down to the last Nizam

Throw a stone and it is likely to fall on some monument or the other. That's true of Hyderabad, the city of domes and minarets. The same can be said about the books written on the historic city. Every aspect of the nawabi shaher has been written about in vivid detail by a string of authors both in English and Urdu.

If there is a glaring void, it is Hindi.  Strangely, there is no monumental work done in the ‘Rashtriya bhasha', although some books have been written. Hindi lovers take heart – a comprehensive book will soon be out in the official language. A son of the soil, Anand Raj Varma, has taken the initiative to fill this long felt need.

A former principal of Anwar-ul-Uloom College, Dr. Varma has chronicled the history of Hyderabad right from the Qutub Shahi kings down to the last Nizam, Mir Osman Ali Khan. Not just history - the social, literary, cultural and administrative aspects of the erstwhile rulers have been meticulously captured by Dr. Varma in his forthcoming book –Hyderabad - Itihas Ke Jharoke Mein.

The book draws on the 166-odd articles written by Dr. Varma on the Hyderabad of yesteryears. “It is my humble contribution to the city of my birth,” says the 75-year-old writer who calls himself a ‘soldier of Urdu'.

What makes Dr. Varma's book unique is the large collection of anecdotes and little known things pertaining to the Nizams. This he has been able to gather after interacting with the old Hyderabadis and family members of the former rulers.

Sample this for instance: it was winter and the last Nizam gives Rs. 16 to his servant to get him a blanket. The latter comes back after sometime and says the blanket costs Rs. 18. The Nizam raises his eyebrows in surprise and says he would rather make do with the old rug. Shortly thereafter the Imam of a mosque walks in with a request for money to repair the masjid courtyard.

“How much will it cost”, the Nizam asks. The man hesitatingly replies ‘Sarkar, char lakh. 'To his surprise the Nizam hands him Rs. 16 lakh asking the Imam to repair the entire mosque and not just the courtyard.

“This shows that the Nizam was not a miser as he is made out to be. Only he did not want to spend on himself”, points out Dr. Varma.

There are many such interesting titbits in the book. It also includes the Hyderabadi cuisine and which dish was popular with whom. There are also a good collection of typical Deccani adages. Take this one for instance:

Kahan Nizam Ali, Kahan pyaz ki dali (Comparative phrase for comparing the mighty with the lowly)

Or the more hilarious: Halki dosti sang nakko paon mein juti tung nakko (An all too casual friendship is like an ill-fitting shoe)
