About The Book

Simanta Periye Sangram Bastuhara Jiboner Itibritta explores the painful narrative of displacement and struggle after the partition of India in 1947. The book delves into the human cost of the partition, a historical moment that divided the Indian subcontinent into two nations, leading to widespread violence, loss of life, and the forced displacement of millions.

The work highlights the untold stories of refugees who were forced to leave their ancestral homes due to the religious-based division of the country. It covers the traumatic experiences of these displaced individuals, who became "strangers" in their own land, and their ongoing fight for rights, recognition, and a place in post-independence India.

Edited by Dr. Sujan Chakraborty, this book is more than just a collection of historical facts—it's a living document, preserving the struggles of those who fought for their identity and dignity amidst the chaos. The text offers a detailed account of the journey of refugees, from their initial struggles to the ongoing battles for citizenship, land, and justice. It also chronicles the socio-political turmoil in Bengal and Punjab, illustrating the multifaceted nature of the refugee experience and the complexities of the post-partition period.

This book serves as a crucial record of the historical, political, and social impact of the partition, offering readers insight into a key chapter of India's independence and the long-lasting consequences it had on millions of lives.
