It also attempts to clear many of the misconceptions about this period and covers broadly what happened not only in the Punjab, but also in NWFP, Sind, Baluchistan and, importantly, Bengal, which cumulatively suffered as much, perhaps more, albeit over a long period.

The Partition of India in 1947 was a catastrophic human tragedy of unprecedented magnitude, characterized by widespread communal violence and unrest that had been brewing for years before the British departure. The communal riots in various parts of the country, including Calcutta, Noakhali, Tippera, and Bihar, as well as in the undivided Punjab and NWFP, left deep wounds on the collective psyche of both Hindus and Muslims and led to an all-out bloodletting following their departure. The book, which is the result of six years of research, describes this inhuman fratricidal war and its severe aftershocks, which are still felt today.
