Abstract
This chapter traces the experiences of Bangladeshi women in prisons in India along a continuum of violence. It contextualizes violence as one of the factors for mobility of women across borders. It portrays the ways in which the border becomes a moment in a continuum of violence, where several state and non-state actors become perpetrators of violence in the life trajectories of the Bangladeshi women in prisons in India. The narratives of the Bangladeshi women reflect the ways in which they resist everyday forms of violence as well as state and institutional violence. They carve for themselves a love of survival as opposed to the survival of violence they are confronted with.
