There are some questions in history which carry a touch of permanence about them. The Partition of India, 1947, is arguably one such question. A lot of debate has been going on various issues connected with it like, for instance, as to who did it? How? Why? And so forth. Still right answers elude us. Hence this ‘roundable’ where the old men who were directly or indirectly connected with the question of Partition have been made to sit with the resent-day analysts of the event and throw light on every aspect of the problem so that the viewer could see everything clearly and form their own opinion as to what was what there. That’s this book-its worth and its beauty!
