Writer Amarjit Chandan dives deep into 1947 trauma held strongly but unaddressed in the collective psyche of Punjabis on both sides of the Indo-Pak border. He exhorts leaders, politicians and well-wishers of the community to come forward and lead to the path of apologizing for the past mistakes of violence and find forgiveness as well as reconciliation.
On my YouTube, you can see the featured picture of a sculpture by artist SL [Sardari Lal] Prashar. He made this sculpture in 1948 with the clay of the Ambala Refugee Camp while he was its in-charge. Before partition he was Vice Principal of National College of Arts, Lahore.
Amarjit Chandan (b. 1946) is an eminent Punjabi writer, editor, translator and activist living in the UK. He has eight collections of poetry and five collections of essays in Punjabi to his credit. His work is known internationally and has been translated into many global languages.
