Abstract: This paper explores women's roles in shaping conflict narratives. Based on ethnographic research in a diverse locality in Hyderabad with a history of Hindu-Muslim tensions, the study shifts from viewing women solely as victims and subjects of symbolic violence to identifying their role in conflict discourse as actors and agents. Findings highlight how women’s socio-political and personal decisions are influenced by ethnocentric values that promote exclusion and target the ethnic ‘other’, revealing their agency in perpetuating conflict narratives. It underscores the significance of women in sustaining and shaping the values underlying ethnic conflict and its consequences.
