Women were admitted in the Frankfurt Parliament as observers. So, on 18 May 1848, when the constitution was drafted in the Frankfurt parliament the controversial issue of extending political rights to women was raised. Still women were deprived of suffrage rights during the election of the Assembly and they were admitted in the Frankfurt parliament assembly only as observers.new colonies come in delhi after the partition they wereDelhi, the brash, bustling Indian capital of today, was, in effect, born in 1947. In the wake of India’s hellish Partition, thousands of Muslims fled, while Hindu and Sikh refugees poured in. Delhi took in nearly half a million refugees from Pakistan in those heady but brutal months before and after August, 1947. Large parts of today’s Delhi grew out of the refugee camps that sprung up along its limits 69 years ago.In 1942, little existed beyond Civil Lines, a British-era neighborhood known for its “European-style hotels,” including the famous Maidens Hotel. North of that was a vast tract of empty land on “Kingsway.” This was earmarked for the Viceroy’s house (which later became the Rashtrapati Bhavan), which was eventually built on Raisina Hill. Kingsway itself would become home to the Kingsway Camp, Delhi’s largest refugee camp.
By 1956, Delhi’s northern limits expanded. The Indian government had allotted 2,000 acres of land to the Ministry of Relief and Rehabilitation to permanently resettle refugees, according to the 1951 Delhi Census. One of the earliest such colonies to come up was Vijay Nagar, west of Civil Lines. Model Town, further up, and to the west, was also on the map by then. Kingsway Camp, which is still on the map, would eventually become Guru Teg Bahadur or GTB Nagar.In theThe South Delhi of today was agricultural land in the 1940s, until the government started buying land there to permanently resettle refugees. Officials from the Ministry of Relief and Rehabilitation drove through these parts, and even rode through on horseback, inspecting land for refugee colonies.
By 1956, southern Delhi began to take shape with the appearance of Lajpat Nagar and Defence Colony. But the rest of what forms South Delhi today was not on the map yet. Barring Malviya Nagar in the far south, where land had been allocated for industries, the South Delhi of 1956 was still largely made up of villages and splendid, ghostly tombs. early 1940s, Lodhi Road could have been South Delhi. There were hardly any roads, let alone neighborhoods, beyond it. Even Lodhi Colony, the last residential area to be built by the British, wasn’t on the map yet because it was only completed in the 1940s.
By the middle of the 1950s, refugees moved into empty flats in Lodhi Colony and built homes around the villages in Nizamuddin and Jangpura: all of it on what was once the deserted south side of Lodhi Road. Change was also afoot deeper in Lutyens’ Delhi. In 1951, Khan Market opened. The shops on the ground floor, and the flats above, were all owned by refugees.
