Episode description

The 1947 Indian partition was one of the most colossal migrations in recorded history, leaving behind a devastating toll. Over 2 million lives were lost, 75,000 women were subjected to unimaginable acts of violence, and a staggering 14 million individuals were forcibly uprooted from their homes. These numbers paint a haunting picture of the immense human tragedy that unfolded during that time. Today, I am joined by Neha Aziz, a writer, creative, and podcaster who has taken a more nuanced approach to understanding the partition. Neha's podcast 'Partition' sheds light on forgotten stories, bringing to life the moments many don't know about during this historic event.
