    About this ebook

    The author deliberates on why this event should be highlighted: what we have learned, what we have lost, and what we have gained. The book sheds light on the real episodes of the history of partition and the history of its victims. It explores how victims of the partition came out of the pain and started their lives from scratch after losing everything, including their loved ones. The book offers information about the partition of different parts of India from various perspectives. It also discusses the reasons why communities, once together, became enemies. The book emphasizes that this event is the most significant lesson to learn about humanity in the future."
