1990 Hyderabad Riots
The 1990 Hyderabad riots were a series of riots that occurred in Hyderabad of Telangana, the then Andhra Pradesh state of India in 1990. The riots left about 200–300 people dead and thousands injured. Background Hyderabad has a long history of Hindu-Muslim violence, with the previous major riot taking place in 1984. The roots of the 1990 riots lay in the Ayodhya dispute, which is centered on Uttar Pradesh, a different state. Hindu activists have long alleged that the Babri mosque in Ayodhya was constructed after Muslims demolished a temple at the site. In November 1990, when a crowd of Hindu activists tried to demolish the mosque, the police fired on them, resulting in several deaths. Since then, the tension between Hyderabadi Hindus and Muslims had been rising. Causes The riots began with the killing of Sardar, a Muslim auto-rickshaw driver, by two Hindus. The death was actually the result of a land dispute unrelated to religious matters. But in light of the Bab ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

History Of Andhra Pradesh (1947–2014)
The recorded history of Andhra Pradesh, one of the 28 states of 21st-century India, begins in the Vedic period. It is mentioned in Sanskrit epics such as the Aitareya Brahmana (800 BCE). Its sixth-century BCE incarnation Assaka lay between the Godavari and Krishna Rivers, one of sixteen mahajanapadas (700–300 BCE). The Satavahanas succeeded them (230 BCE–220 CE), built Amaravati, and reached a zenith under Gautamiputra Satakarni. After the Satavahanas, the region fragmented into fiefdoms. By the late second century CE, Andhra Ikshvakus ruled along the Krishna River. In the fourth, the Pallava dynasty spread from southern Andhra Pradesh to Tamilakam, and had a capital at Kanchipuram. Their power increased in the reigns of Mahendravarman I (571–630) and Narasimhavarman I (630–668), and dominated northern Tamilakam and the southern Telugu-speaking region until the end of the ninth century.

Riots And Civil Disorder In India
A riot is a form of civil disorder commonly characterized by a group lashing out in a violent public disturbance against authority, property, or people. Riots typically involve destruction of property, public or private. The property targeted varies depending on the riot and the inclinations of those involved. Targets can include shops, cars, restaurants, state-owned institutions, and religious buildings. Riots often occur in reaction to a grievance or out of dissent. Historically, riots have occurred due to poverty, unemployment, poor living conditions, governmental oppression, taxation or conscription, conflicts between ethnic groups ( race riot) or religions (sectarian violence, pogrom), the outcome of a sporting event (sports riot, football hooliganism) or frustration with legal channels through which to air grievances. While individuals may attempt to lead or control a riot, riots typically consist of disorganized groups that are frequently "chaotic and exhibit herd ...
