In 'The Kaurs of 1984', Sanam Sutirath Wazir shares the stories of survival that have been carried quietly for decades by the Sikh community in Delhi and other parts of North India.
Author Sanam Sutirath Wazir shared heart-wrenching stories from his book ‘The Kaurs of 1984’ at an event at Delhi’s Theatre Kunzum last week. For many, memorials and money are no panacea.
When BeerBiceps asked Diljit Dosanjh why he’s so deep, the singer-actor pointed to his lonely childhood where his parents abandoned him. It’s packaged as the secret to his success.
Insulted and bullied by Donald Trump, European leaders are asking where they go from here. The right choice isn’t to kneel or fight back, but to disengage.
Two sides also announce signing of a Security & Defence Partnership, launch negotiations for an intelligence sharing agreement & explore India’s addition to Horizon Europe programme.
Overall, President Droupadi Murmu has approved Gallantry awards to 70 armed forces personnel, including six posthumous, on the eve of 77th Republic Day.
No nation other than China can negotiate one-on-one with Trump on an equal footing. That’s why the middle powers who so far formed the core of multilateral bodies now feel orphaned.
Sometimes I wonder whether these so called intellectuals so deep in their subject that they forget the other dimensions or aspects of any issue or for that matter a rememberance like partitions horrors. They forget that this is not a utopian world but a world where things can happen again as the author quoted. A person who has suffered can not be given a moral lecture of ethics when they recall their miseries. The person here a country will not need a moral lecture when it is mourning. Since these things can happen again we need to remind our population and recognise the events precursor to the horrors. The history needs to be taught so that people are able to recognise the events and stop it before it spreads. They need to remember that it started on the day when the Muslim league and its backers and followers went on rampage on the direct action day. They need to remember that voices like the Muslim league are raising again and the people need to recognise it and they need to nip it in the bud so that they don’t have to see the horrors that our people had to see during partition of 1947. There is no ethics in suffering so they author can take their ethical lecture somewhere else
No wonder Mr. Rakesh Batabyal teaches at JNU.
He. and others of his ilk, has never voiced concerns about the violence unleashed on Bengali Hindus in Bangladesh ever since Md. Yunus assumed power after Sheikh Hasina’s exit. The gangrapes and abductions and forced conversions of Hindu women, murders of Hindu men and destruction of Hindu owned property does not bother them at all.
But a Bengali Hindu’s remembrance of the Partition horrors upsets them.
Very very thought provoking writeup. Reminds me of the time when the public intellectuals were the true keeper of our public conscience and were one of the great pillars of our civic society.
( Unlike the present R.W.A)
