(Redirected from Ganga-Jamuni Tehzeeb)
Ganga-Jamuni tehzeeb (Hindustani: गंगा जमुनी तहज़ीब, گنگا جمنی تھذیب, Ganges-Yamuna Culture) is a term used for the culture of the central plains of Northern India, especially the doab region of Ganges (Ganga) and Yamuna rivers, which is regarded as a fusion of Hindu and Muslim elements.[1][2]
The region of Awadh in the state of Uttar Pradesh is usually considered to be the center of this culture.[3][4] Allahabad, Lucknow, Kanpur,[5][6] Faizabad-Ayodhya,[4][7] and Varanasi (Benares)[8][9] are a few of the many centres of this culture.
Hyderabad, the capital city of Telangana in south central part of the India, is also considered an example of communal harmony.[10][11]
Nawabs of Awadh were fore-runners of this culture.[12]
