Chef Maneet Chauhan grew up with a desire to try every new food she could find. Growing up in India, she fell in love with the diversity of the cuisines within her own country. This led to a passion to discover flavor and food from everywhere, and the realization that food was a way for her to show her love for the people around her. Read more to learn about how Chef Maneet is sharing her love of learning, human connection, and all things delicious with her own kids.
"Now, here's a Hindu girl waiting for her Muslim boyfriend," said Vijaykant Chauhan, as his associate shepherded a worried 14-year-old into the large cow shelter on Vande Mataram Chowk in this Uttar Pradesh town. "She's been standing at the same spot on the road for half an hour; why else would she be here?"
At 36, Chauhan is thickly muscled, with 'Vande Mataram' tattooed on his chest, back, biceps and hands. He sports an upturned moustache and wears olive green army fatigues offset by a pair of blue and yellow Crocs, radiating the contentment that comes with a mid-career renaissance.
Chauhan is not formally a member of the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP), but claims he works closely with it. "On Yogi Adityanath's birthday, I donated blood and organised 51 bottles of blood in his honour," he said, referring to the BJP's five-time MP from Gorakhpur, "Yogi Aditynath is an inspiration."
Love jihad -- or the apparent practice of young Muslim men allegedly seducing Hindu girls to convert to Islam -- once existed on the outer-fringe of the political spectrum of revivalist Hindutva politics. Now, it may have become the primary plank of the BJP's bid to win back 11 Vidhan Sabha seats in Uttar Pradesh (UP) in a by-election scheduled for this Saturday.
Chauhan, for his part, has tried everything to prevent Hindus and Muslims from befriending each other - processions, street brawls, night patrols and once filed false papers in a court of law - to prevent a Hindu woman from marrying her Muslim fiance. "I claimed to be her husband," he said, "But the girl filed an affidavit claiming she wanted to stay with the Muslim. She was brainwashed."
This by-poll will not change the balance of power in the UP Assembly, but the outcomes are important for the three big political parties vying to form the government after the next state polls in 2017.
For the BJP, a strong performance on Saturday will cement its position as a durable force after winning a record 71 seats from UP in the general elections this summer.
The party has nominated firebrand Hindutva leader, holy man and Gorkahpur riot-accused Yogi Adityanath to consolidate the Hindu vote bank, by aligning UP's diverse castes behind a unified Hindu identity.
Adityanath has obliged by making a series of inflammatory, anti-Muslim public statements in rallies across UP, from Noida in the west to Varanasi in the east, that have earned him a showcause notice from the Election Commission of India.
As the party in power, the SP is expected to leverage its control over the administration and police to ensure a strong showing. Failure, SP members admit, could shake the faith of party workers and drive them to the BJP.
"The love jihad issue is making it difficult for the SP and the BSP to create Muslim votes with either the Yadavs (for the SP) or the Dalits [for the Bahujan Samaj Party (BSP)]," said a local BJP leader, speaking off the record, "It is uniting Hindus to protect their daughters."
Last week, the Muzaffarnagar administration organised a 'religious harmony' function to commemorate one year of the Muzaffarnagar riots. "Schoolchildren were supposed to form a human chain to illustrate communal harmony," said an organiser, "But local Bajrang Dal and Shiv Sena activists said they would not let Hindu girls hold hands with Muslim boys."
The function, the organiser said, was to end with a poetry reading. "But we made the mistake of calling it a Mushaira," said the organiser, "which prompted the Hindutva groups to insist we call it a Kavi Sammelan. So, we just cancelled everything."
By sitting out this election, Mayawati's BSP appears to have bought time to assess how to negotiate UP's changed realities. "Behenji told us the SP government could fall at any point, so we should focus on the state-level polls," said a BSP worker. In the interim, the worker said, the party was focusing on building support among the Muslims and Dalits.
In Panjit, in the Shamli district, Mohammed Akhlakh, the village headman and BSP worker, has worked with his community to earmark about 20 acres of private land to be sold for between Rs 100 and Rs 200 per square foot for settling riot-affected Muslims.
"Riot affected families can buy the land for as little as Rs 5,000 up front and then pay the rest in instalments," said Akhlakh, who insisted that this was a community initiative in his capacity as a community leader rather than a political personage. This correspondent met at least two other BSP workers who were connecting displaced Muslims with riot-relief organisations.
"After Muzaffarnagar, we lost all faith in the Samajwadi Party," said Jamil Ahmed, a former pradhan from Dhabeli, where homes are being built for displaced Muslims, "SP leaders also played their part in the riots. So, we will see what to do."
"There are two factors behind Muslim migration. The push factor of communalism, and the pull factor of better wages in the towns," said academic and farmer activist Professor Sudhir Panwar from Lucknow University, "After the riots, Muslims have moved from Hindu majority villages to the fringes of towns like Kairana that have a significant Muslim presence."
The recent riots and the love jihad" narrative, Panwar said, had created a situation where both communities felt like victims of each other, "This will mean that both communities shall move away from political movements and towards religious figures."
Samyukta, also known as Sanyogita or Sanjukta, was the daughter of Jaichand, the King of Kannauj, and one of three wives of Prithviraj Chauhan.[1] The love between Prithviraj and Samyukta is one of India's most popular medieval romances, composed by Chand Bardai in Prithviraj Raso.[2]
Prithviraj Chauhan, on hearing about the impending svayamvara, devised a plan to elope with the bride-to-be. On the day of the ceremony, Samyukta walked through the court holding the ceremonial garland, ignoring the gazes of her ardent suitors. She passed through the door and put the garland around the neck of Prithviraj's statue, declaring him her husband. Prithiviraj, who meanwhile was hiding behind the statue, caught Samyukta up in his arms, set her on his horse, and whisked her away to Delhi. Raja Jaichand was enraged.[5] This led to a rift between Delhi and Kannauj, which was later taken advantage of by Mohammad Ghori of Afghanistan.
The historicity of Samyukta is a matter of debate. Prithviraj Raso is a historically unreliable text, having been embellished under the patronage of the Kshatriya rulers since the 16th century. However, some scholars such as Dasharatha Sharma believe that the more reliable Prithviraja Vijaya, which was composed during the reign of Prithviraj Chauhan, also contains a reference to Samyukta.[6]
An unfinished theme in the 11th chapter of Prithviraja Vijaya refers to Prithviraj's love for an unnamed woman who lived on the banks of the Ganges river (just like Samyukta). This woman is mentioned as an incarnation of Tilottama, a legendary apsara (celestial nymph). However, even if this woman is same as Samyukta, there is no concrete evidence to support the Prithviraj Raso narrative of Samyuka's abduction and marriage to Prithviraj Chauhan.[6]
"Samyukta", which means "united" in Sanskrit, is a popular girl's name in modern India. The life of Prithviraj Chauhan has also been the subject of a television show aired on Star Plus titled Dharti Ka Veer Yodha Prithviraj Chauhan, the character of Sanyogita was portrayed by Mugdha Chaphekar in that series.[7] A historical film titled Raani Samyuktha was made in 1962 with Padmini and M. G. Ramachandran in the lead roles.[8] In the 2022 film Samrat Prithviraj by Chandraprakash Dwivedi, the character of Sanyogita is portrayed by Manushi Chhillar.[9]
I find myself here for breakfast as well as for a nightcap. My go-to is the seemingly simple butter leaf salad which has a delightful hint of fresh herbs and bright citrusy dressing. The entire menu is pretty straightforward but well executed. And I love dirty vegan cheeseburgers.
For me, it's pretty close to the perfect restaurant. They do whatever they want, and it's all executed at a really high level. There's loud music and lots of really nice seafood, which is something that's hard to find in landlocked Nashville. The menu is small so a couple can go in and order one of everything.
They have one of the more affordable tasting menus in the city and the atmosphere is super cool. The cooks serve all of the food and it's staffed by some of the best in the business. The menu changes all the time and I think it's all a big collaborative effort between all of the chefs.
Another favorite for special occasions. It is pricy but the menu is extensive and super exciting. They offer really cool wine pairings as well as nonalcoholic options to go along with each course and they also host regular guest chef dinners with chefs from all over the country.
