Abstract

This article deals with the issue of education and Indian Muslim women's experience as segregated and ghettoised students that adds up tp their community disadvantage. The primary concern that is dealt with here is how the idea of education in all its emancipator dimensions gets a beating when a particular group of students, i.e. Muslim girl student, is excluded from having a wholesome experience of learning in a sexually, linguistically and multi-culturally segregated madrasas, Urdu-medium schools and same-sex schools.
