CHHIPAWAD

HISTORY OF CHHIPA
  • According to the Balwa Pothy Chhipa came from
    Jesalmer and resided in Nagor.
  • Before the Samvat Year 1291, all Chhipas were
    Hindus.
  • In the Samvat Year 1291, when Firozshah Taghalakh
    of Takhlakh lineage was on throne of Delhi, all
    the Chhipas had adopted Islam in Nagor sharif.

3
PEAK TIME OF CHHIPAS
  • Chhipas screen print and block print work was
    highly appreciated for a long time.
  • It is said that in early times of Chhipas, well
    known emperor of his time, King Akbar has also
    praised the work of Chhipas.

4
PEAK TIME OF CHHIPAS
  • As Chhipas were the experts at the art of screen
    block print, it became the main source of their
    survival.
  • Mills Karkhanas were established by Chhipas
    and most of the man power was used to promote the
    same kind of work.
  • Ahmedabad once became the Manchester of India
    because of the clothing industries and huge
    contribution of Chhipas.

5
LOST FOCUS FROM OTHER BASICS
  • Education Bhan-namu kino faydo huwo hai
  • No or limited education for girls
  • Less interest in search for a better life
  • Limited themselves within the Chhipawad
    Territories
  • Very little curiosity about their Legal Rights.

6
GOT HIT BY CHANGING TIME
  • Things changed Printing work collapsed or gone
    elsewhere.
  • Left behind in other careers
  • Lack of education motivation.
  • Never wanted to come out of their typical
    Chhipawad mentality.
  • Discrimination against Muslims in India was has
    been a negative factor on top of everything else.

7
SOME EXCEPTIONSTHOSE WHO EXPLORED OUT
  • Alhamdo-Lillah, some Chhipas like us here had the
    opportunity to explore out side the Chhipawad
    boundries.
  • They went all over the world including USA,
    Canada, Australia, Middle East
  • They were able to have a better life style for
    themselves and their families.
  • They are doing their part individually to
    support their families based in Chhipawad.
  • They came to better understanding of true Islam.

8
THE KIND OF EFFORTS NEEDED
  • Alhamdo-Lillah, we are all doing whatever we can
    to support our own families back home in
    Chhipawad.
  • COLLECTIVE and ONGOING effort from all of us here
    to achieve bigger and better goals is needed.
  • We also strongly need to change our mindset of
    not being able to bring the much needed change in
    Chhipawad by concluding that nothing can be done
    about it.

9
PROJECTSTO BE ACHIEVED

    world.
  • Very importantly, teach proper way of Islam.

  • Got all Chhipas together as part of this
    convention so everybody is aware of the work that
    needs to be done.

    by Publishing Distributing Know Your Legal
    Rights books translated into Gujarati.

    Mishra who is working for Muslims in India,
