	Combined tide and wave influence on sedimentation of Lower Gondwana coal measures of central India: Barakar Formation ...
		Abstract:The coal-bearing Barakar succession of the Satpura basin is typical of the Gondwanan coal basins of peninsular India, in that it has previously been interpreted as continental in origin.
		Accordingly, it has been suggested by most previous studies that the Satpura basin was geographically restricted from oceanic waters and that tidal reworking had no effect on the deposition of the Barakar strata (see Ray & Chakraborty 2002).
		This paper describes combined tide-and wave-influenced facies from the Barakar Formation of the Satpura Gondwana basin indicating marine influence during sedimentation in a continental interior deltaic setting and suggesting that the basin was connected to oceanic waters during Barakar sedimentation.

		When a woman “chooses” to die because she cannot stomach the idea of a lifetime of degradation in widowhood, I don’t need any high theory to hear what the subaltern is saying: I can hear, loud and clear, the inhuman traditions that not only make such “choices” possible, but wrap them in an aura of nobility and self-sacrifice.
		These same villagers who were so reluctant to come to Charanshah’s aid when she needed them, and were so perfunctory in whatever assistance they did provide, showed no such compunction when it came to worshipping her as Sati Mata after she was burnt to death.
		Satpura is a largely dalit village, so it wasn’t as if Charanshah was surrounded by some purity-fixated upper castes.
