Description

This academic work examines the lives of Bangladeshi women from poor and semi-educated backgrounds who have crossed the Indo-Bangladesh border. It provides a detailed look at their experiences while serving sentences under the Foreigners Act, 1946. Through original fieldwork, the text explores how these women perceive state sovereignty and national borders. The book investigates the social struggles faced by women from conservative rural and semi-rural backgrounds. It looks at how they navigate the socio-cultural environment of Indian prisons, especially when being an inmate is viewed as dishonourable within their own communities. This study offers a deep look into how these women manage their identities and sense of self while facing incarceration in a foreign legal system.
