Omar Khalidi (1952 – 29 November 2010) was born in Hyderabad, India, and was an eminent Muslim scholar, a staff member of MIT in the US and an author. He was educated in India, the United Kingdom, and the United States. He is referred to as the "Chronicler of Hyderabad and as a champion of minority rights". He is considered an international relations builder and his visits to various countries, sponsored by the US State Department, were a part of this effort.〔 The main subjects of his books are minority rights, history, architecture, economics, demography, politics, Urdu education, military history, library science, cataloguing ethnic groups and nationalism.〔〔 His incisive writings on minority rights inspired the Sachar Committee to seek a community wise census of the Indian armed forces.〔〔 He had also authored several books and articles on Islam in America and mosque architecture.〔 His two books, ''Khaki and Ethnic Violence in India: Army, Police, and Paramilitary Forces During Communal Riots'' (2003) and ''Muslims in Indian Economy'' (2006), had focused on the institutional discrimination against Muslims in India, creating furore in the Indian Parliament in 2006. L.K. Advani had verbally attacked him for allegedly tarnishing the secular credentials of the Indian army and personally held him responsible for the Sachar Committee's request for a community wide census in India.〔〔 ==Early life and education==
