Faculty review notes: Only option (a), Caste, Communalism and Christian Identity, has a detailed outline. Options (b)–(e) are incomplete headings; (b) has a bare 1. placeholder. They remain visible below but are not invented full syllabi or additional tracked study units. Faculty must confirm the option structure before teaching allocations. No evaluation percentages are supplied in this syllabus. AGBS must confirm grading; no scheme is inherited from another course. No separate bibliography is supplied. Faculty should add an approved reading list; no books or editions have been invented.
