My maternal grandmother's family from a small village called Qila didar singh, near Gujranwala, they started from there with 1800 odd people, moving towards amritsar and only 20 people reached alive and rest all were massacred on the way and many young girls and women were snatched away.
Do not forget, it can happen again. 90% of violence started by Muslims only. Ishtiaq Ahmed was very clear that the first train of slaughtered and raped dead bodies came from Pakistan to India. India only responded days later.
@@talashegumshuda5791 Yes, India should become unforgiving. Muslims only understand force, not reason. It is proven world over many times. This is due to the inability of Muslims to compromise and come to the middle. Even if one group shows some comprise another group will replace it by calling it “Gaddar”. This has been going on from Mmd’s time to be honest. All the internecine genocide is just a result of that attitude.

Your grandfather first left India because he loved Islam more than his motherland... so he left India.... Based on religion ignoring his roots... And the fact that you All are converts... He left as he preferred not to stay with kafir hindus.... HE HAD NO RIGHT TO REPENT ON DEATH BED....You all Muslim of sub continent are like him... And you face dire consequences of forgetting your religion and roots.. I am happy you all have left our nation... But we still have 30 cr piggs still in India
Muhammad bhai, I really appreciate you sharing that. My family are refugees from Mirpur, I was raised in Delhi. My grandpa used to go hang out in Old Delhi off and on. I realized later that it reminded him of Pakistan, his old country. I miss my grandpa dearly. He lost a lot but he gave me and others much more than he ever lost. We are all one family.
Thank you Drsaab. I loved this talk. A lot to learn and understand from our history. I pray for more people to listen to you and read your books. Humbled by your consistent research for so many years and all the hurdles that you must have faced. So happy to see Dr. Hoodbhoy in the audience. Love him and my respects to him as well. Regards, Just another Indian
Great conversation with Dr Ishtiaq … loved it esp the research behind it and seemingly unbiased attitude he had. Just ordered this book and look forward to reading it.
Sir we are very proud that you did such a remarkable work on history that finaly made us know the reality behind this so called independence, my grand parents are also from rajastan , district churu left everything there and started from zero here..... You are a institute
. Pakistan was ethnically cleansed, from 35% hindu and sikh to 1% now. . Bangladesh is friendly with India, but still from a 30% hindu area in 1947, it has become 10% now. most of the ethnic cleansing took place when it was east pakistan. Pakistanis must confront these truths, like Dr.Sahab is doing , and you can say that only by recognizing the LOC as the border can we move forward. Otherwise we will still be confronting after another 75 years.
Krishna bhai East Punjabi Hindus and Sikhs went to East Punjab While Muslims went to West Punjab. As a result Punjabi Muslims’ population in E Punjab went to 0% Punjabi Hindus/Sikhs’ population in W Punjab went to 0%. It was population transfer on both sides. Not that support such transfers.
Lies of Ishtiaq Ahemad in this video ------------------------------------------------------------ (1) Congress opposed Liaquat Ali Khan's budget because Sardar Patel was a right wing Hindu congressman. But the reality is here :- ua-cam.com/video/c1odDWaDQqo/v-deo.html (2) Ishtiaq Ahemad tried to equates the whole scenario hindu muslim communal riots . Bengal vs Bihar and East Punjab vs West Punjab. He said that it was British conspiracy and violence was done by both side equally with support of local mafia. But the reality is , Sufies Barelawis , few Devbandi scholars had declared Jihad against hindu and Sikhs. Even Not a single thought of school of Islam oppose slavery. They justify the sex slavery of women nowdays too. The Hindus and Sikhs women were sold and raped because it was Quranic doctrine that muslims can keep sex slave (concubine) who were captive during Jihad. Even Qur'an tell about that don't Marry with non muslims until they convert into islam because they are inferior than a sex slave (londi). According to Imam Sha'fi , muslims can check hands , privet parts too before purchasing slaves. Prophet Muhemmad's wife Maria bin kibtiyya was a sex slave. I would suggest Ishtiaq Ahemad Sab , you should read islamic history particularly fiqah and hadiths. The doctorin of Barelwis was "there is no Riyast e madina without jihad and Idol worshipers have only two choices convert or being killed because Jajia is only option for Ahl e Qitab according to Quran" So , there is a lot of lies told by Ishtiaq Ahemad but I would say , it doesn't matter If an Iranian says that the Zoroastrians were good people, or a white American says that the Native Indians were very good.
The question is who started the trouble. Honestly contemplate it. MOOPLA RIOTS, DIRECT ACTION day, and many such incidences which led to partition were initiated by MUSLIM LEAGUE. Gandhi even said to HINDUS that even if you ALL get KILLED that is fine please do not retaliate. But this gesture was seen as cowardice and more and more attacks on HINDUS happened that is when HINDUS retaliated as a countermeasure for MUSLIM OFFENSE. So it is MUSLIMS who initiate an attack on HINDUS. Be it in pre-independence INDIA or NOW. look at all wars we have fought against Pakistan. Every one of them was started by Pakis.
British united India and held it together with brute force otherwise we would have several more countries in subcontinent instead of 3 countries now. It was Congress madness that propagated akhandh Bharat utopia. which caused great tragic split. Dr sahab being a social scientist ignoring this elephant in the room.
@@mohammadmian7700 Wrong theory. If what you say was right then we would have seen multiple splits of BHARAT after independence. That didn't happen. The partition happened because of JINAH. Read books by your own authors and you will get the right history. Reading is not your forte, right?
@@mohammadmian7700 Pakistani's are brainwashed radical, your kids are taught to hate INDIA. There are many interviews of random Pakistani teenagers spewing pure hate without any logic behind it.
This is probably the first time I have seen someone talking from a neutral perspective on partition in Pakistan. Hope better sense prevails and situation improves there.
It's not neutral and neither objective. Any objective thought on partition would lead to the conclusion that it's stems from Qur'an which he eloquently avoids. Besides he praises nehru and gandhi for secularism not seeing that they were also opportunists who created same problems for people as Jinnah did.
Dr. Istiaq Ahmed Saab is an encyclopedia of matters related to partition!!! And he is also an exemplary humanist. People of India and Pakistan will forever be indebted to him for having impartially documented the tragedy of partition.
People in India are already aware of all this. The truth is that Pakistan never received Independence. They just went from an outright Colony to a Client State of Britain and America. The independence that they would have got was stolen from them by their Leaders.
Very interesting. The research and efforts of Dr. Ishtiaq Ahmed to bring out this book are highly commendable. I look forward to purchasing a copy of the book. I was born 8 1/2 months in Lahore,, before partition. I was with my parents on the fisrt train to be dynamited en route from Delhi to Karachi- my father's job as deputy secretary cabinet was to organise swearing in ceremony of the Quaid in Karachi. At another level, my maternal grandfather, Mir Maqbool Mahmood was a hero in the Jallianwala Bagh massacre. His testimony in the inquiry into Punjab Disturbances 1919-1920 led to Dwyer's removal from here.
They must be busy watching our news channel fighting debates or standing in cues for petrol . Jokes apart, I don’t think pakistan has still out of that partition mindset, they are still fighting among themselves and keeping the 1947 alive in their own country and in their heart and mind.

Amazing session by a Great scholar please keep this kind of session more and invite such people and if you may identify any person on the Punjab partition it would be a great courtesy to us.
It is surprising to note that all Sikh Gurus have names of Hindu gods or personalities and none have muslim names. Actually, it is said that actual practice of Sikh as a specific religious practice was started by Guru Govind Singh. It is also said that Hindus of that time used consider Sikhs are protector warriors of their religion and life and there was a practice of bringing up first male child as a Sikh....
Muslims se saath leke Khalistan banayengey Canada aur Australia mein. Jitna khud ko gair Hindu dukhane ka koshish mein Guru Gobind ke bachchon ka kaatilonse milnewalo ke ooper Daya aati hai...
Sikhism stands on the foundation of genial spirit of Sanatan Dharma, its Militant disposition arose due to continuous struggle with Islamic bigotry. Islam, for all its claims of superior conception of a monolithic God (Monotheistic sects are a well adjusted part of Hinduism by the way), was founded on the notions of haughtiness and superiority, and its history is littered with use of forced conversions, murder and rape (in fact no religious books other than Islam so overtly exhorts encourage Jihad by use of force). Hinduism is but a perverted version of Sanatan Dharma, it was necessary to unshackle its obsession with tunnel vision of idol worship, hence statement by Guru Gobind Singh about being an idol breaker.
Ravindra ji,aap study karen hindu dharam mein puja,maanta,aur sara vidhi vidhan itna pakhand aur loot ki raah par chal pada, karamkaand charon taraf haavi ho gaya toh Sikh dharam hindu dharam ka sudhar karne ke liye paida hua.Aur hindus hi iski nursary thi.So Sikh hindus se aate the aur aam taur par unke naam vi wahi rehte the lekin jivan jaach(way aur manners of living) badal jaate the.jo majboot hindu hote wahi Sikh bante,kiunke Sikhi talwar ki dhaar par chalne ka naam hai.
I wholeheartedly THANK YOU for providing the only true record of events I have heard or read in my long life of 70 hard years. I am surviving son of a refugee from Sialkot, who had to leave his home and ancestral birthplace, all his lifelong muslim friends, property, wealth and ended up as a refugee with nothing in Delhi. I have heard thousands of tragic stories from hundreds of survivors on both sides of this Horrible Historic event which is glossed over as "Partition of India" in International HISTORY, seemingly insignificant in comparison with the equally abhorrent events of the HOLOCAST in Europe. No one in my lifetime has produced a True and detailed Record of this horrendous decision by the few ELITE Politicians and Religious leaders and British Empire, who did not lose anything and had no Understanding of the Suffering of MILIONS. I THANK YOU AGAIN on behalf of those MILIONS, whose future was ruined forever by the few EVIL, so called LEADERS of INDIA, and ILL conceived and forever crippled Pakistan.
What a brilliant and genuine person Dr Ishtiaq is!! I see another gem Dr Perveiz Hoodbhoy sitting in audience! What a magnificent and truthful discussion!
Very moving stories. It’s utmost important to continue to bring truth to light. Until we Pakistanis own up to the facts we shall remain a wandering tribe. We have almost become state parrots 🦜. Excellent show !

After 75 years we have many times extensively and honestly heard the true horrific story of partition of this subcontinent i.e.india from a Muslim pakistani.He has truly depicted the real villains and characters of this partition a very courageous step from a Muslim.Congratulations,Professor sahib and salute to your courageous efforts,studing British archives, meeting the effected Hindus,Sikhs and Muslim families,quoeting politicians and institutions of that period.We are indebted for your efforts and valuable studies by bringing true horrific picture of that painful period
Dear Dr Ahmed Thank you very much for your book on what happened in Punjab on portion of India in 1947. There was urgent need of such a true exposition. I wish to let you know I was 5 year old in Lahore in the Krishan Nagar when this worst exodus of people happened on a scale never happened in the history of mankind before. The neighbours turned on neighbour when they had lived together for generations with no incidence. It is important for people on both sides to know the history which is only 77 years old. It is interesting to note after we arrived in Delhi as refugees we were worst treated & were dumped into a slum in Delhi full of diseases & sicknesses we never saw in Lahore. The division was a blunder which should not have happened but unfortunately it did. It has lead to permanent enmity between two nations & they have never apologised to the refugees whom they used the guinea pigs of the independence.
This is a must watch for Indian Muslims, Hindus, Sikhs, who easily gets appease in the name of religion by leaders like Owaisi & other regional parties.
Fewer comments by Pakistanis doesn't mean that there is no Pakistani literature, the problem is that this gentleman who is a doctor, respected, educated, was born in the wrong place, he should have been born in India. The reason for Pakistan's existence is ego or ideology. As a Pakistani, I fully believe in it and it was a great favor on the part of our leader that this country was given to us. After that, it was the weaknesses of our people. Due to which our country has reached this situation, it has reached this point, then the ideology of Pakistan was absolutely true and it is still true. I am and I have many differences with my country
An absolutely brilliant lecture, brilliant questions, and very moving function. Dr Ishtiaq Ahmed has done superb research and illuminated the very human element to Punjabs partition. God bless both Punjabs (east and west).
It would be very difficult for an average Pakistani to consume this truth. When you are taught all your life that Jinnah is God Like and you were imposed upon unfairly and you are the martyrs hearing atruth like this would make you go rudderless. It is the kind of mental shock an average human may not be able to take. I would suspect many Pakistanis would have found it difficult to sit through this discussion

As a 86 year Goan Indian American 50 years in India & 36 years in Georgia US born in Lahore in 1937 & therefore consider myself a Punjabi. In India I worked in practically all Indian States. I was a Bombay Goan Catholic & worked with Hindus, Muslims, Parsees, Jains & all other communities before immigrating to the US in 1986. Partition divided all families including mine into Pakistanis & Indians that when we went to our ancestral home in Goa for the summer holidays, in 1953 , I realized what that meant. After hearing this UA-cam episode I pray to Almighty God that Pakistan & India come together again & become friends for the good of both countries & peoples.

Excellent program! Whenever I’ve emailed Professor Ahmed saab, he always replies - I’m sure he is a very busy man, but yet he has the grace to respond to an unknown person like me. Goa bless you sir
Since 1947 Dr Ishtaq has been the only intellectual and that too from Punjab that speaks the truth about Pakistan's History. Besides being intellectual, he is more of the Luckiest person in that he has not been declared a Traitor
As I understand from his talks that Mr.Ishtiq Ahmed would not have liked partion to take place .Because in post-independence ,non- partitioned India ,Muslims would have got the better of Hindus and thus ruled India. So Partion has turned out to be a good thing for Hindus but a loosing proposition of Muslims.
Just like no right wing Hindu nationalists would watch indian liberals rants similarly Pakistanis aren't interested in these Pakistani liberals anti state agendas and 95% of the Pakistanis happen to be right wing nationalists

Its curious, we were Bangladeshis, who were economic migrants into India ~ '67-'68, before that big cyclone. Fortunately we didn't have to see '71 war, its consequences and subsequent chaos of Bangladesh. But truth to be told, even India was piss poor those days (Pakistanis don't believe but India has grown leaps and bounds). But living in India(West Bengal) without citizenship, during the Naxal movement was no picnic either. Good thing is that relations with Bangladesh seem to be thawing. Normalcy can be seen on the horizon. We are developing joint infrastructures, Roads, Rail lines, Electricity lines, Water Ways, Ports, Bridges and military cooperation too.
The problem with Pakistanis is that they always see everything through the religious lens. India as a country(ignore the RW) has never had a problem with Islam. 180+ million Indian Muslims are thriving like they never could in present-day Pakistan. People may have their biases but Muslims still have an equal opportunity to serve their country in the armed forces, govt jobs, private jobs. We have good relations with Bangladesh, Maldives, The Middle East(UAE, SA, Qatar, Oman), Indonesia, Malaysia and Iran. Paki9

Kashif Ali Saheb. there was a speaker at The Black Hole whose name is Dr. Sajjad Azhar, if i correctly remember. You could choose to listen to his talk where he begins to unravel the 'first' disturbances between Hindus and Muslims in the Rawalpindi area. He contends that the seeds of these 'riot' like situations from 1922-47 became the nuclei that seeded many more such nuclei in the context of Punjab. In his opinion, the centrality of the Rawalpindi communal strife to the conflagration in Punjab needs closer investigation. My question to Prof. Ahmed: have you listened to this angle of the Punjab-wide riots, available in The Black Hole archives? Thank you for being your kind self, and the same to the organizers of The Black Hole series of talks.
Very nice and just moderator who gives enough space to Dr. Ahmad and informs and directs the public at the same time in a very correct way. I hope Dr. Ahmad is given opportunity to come to India and give talks all around India. It will be highly listened to and respected.

Muhammad bhai, I really appreciate you sharing that. My family are refugees from Mirpur, I was raised in Delhi. My grandpa used to go hang out in Old Delhi off and on. I realized later that it reminded him of Pakistan, his old country. I miss my grandpa dearly. He lost a lot but he gave me and others much more than he ever lost. We are all one family.
😂😂😂😂 accha hua
@@innerhikewhat do u mean by old country. There was no Pakistan before 1947
@@ABMSTUDY There was also no India before 1947, only British India.
Thank you Drsaab. I loved this talk. A lot to learn and understand from our history. I pray for more people to listen to you and read your books. Humbled by your consistent research for so many years and all the hurdles that you must have faced.
So happy to see Dr. Hoodbhoy in the audience. Love him and my respects to him as well.

Great conversation with Dr Ishtiaq … loved it esp the research behind it and seemingly unbiased attitude he had. Just ordered this book and look forward to reading it.
Sir we are very proud that you did such a remarkable work on history that finaly made us know the reality behind this so called independence, my grand parents are also from rajastan , district churu left everything there and started from zero here..... You are a institute
It is always a great pleasure to listen respected Sir Dr Ishtiaque Ahmed Sb.
. Pakistan was ethnically cleansed, from 35% hindu and sikh to 1% now. . Bangladesh is friendly with India, but still from a 30% hindu area in 1947, it has become 10% now. most of the ethnic cleansing took place when it was east pakistan. Pakistanis must confront these truths, like Dr.Sahab is doing , and you can say that only by recognizing the LOC as the border can we move forward. Otherwise we will still be confronting after another 75 years.
Krishna bhai
East Punjabi Hindus and Sikhs went to East Punjab
While Muslims went to West Punjab.
As a result Punjabi Muslims’ population in E Punjab went to 0%
Punjabi Hindus/Sikhs’ population in W Punjab went to 0%.
It was population transfer on both sides. Not that support such transfers.
@@kdshak4904 It was a population transfer started by the rawalpindi riots (as usual).
It also doesn't explain why karachi was cleared out in 10 years.

Lies of Ishtiaq Ahemad in this video
------------------------------------------------------------
(1) Congress opposed Liaquat Ali Khan's budget because Sardar Patel was a right wing Hindu congressman.
But the reality is here :-
ua-cam.com/video/c1odDWaDQqo/v-deo.html
(2) Ishtiaq Ahemad tried to equates the whole scenario hindu muslim communal riots . Bengal vs Bihar and East Punjab vs West Punjab.
He said that it was British conspiracy and violence was done by both side equally with support of local mafia.
But the reality is ,
Sufies Barelawis , few Devbandi scholars had declared Jihad against hindu and Sikhs.
Even Not a single thought of school of Islam oppose slavery. They justify the sex slavery of women nowdays too. The Hindus and Sikhs women were sold and raped because it was Quranic doctrine that muslims can keep sex slave (concubine) who were captive during Jihad. Even Qur'an tell about that don't Marry with non muslims until they convert into islam because they are inferior than a sex slave (londi).
According to Imam Sha'fi , muslims can check hands , privet parts too before purchasing slaves. Prophet Muhemmad's wife Maria bin kibtiyya was a sex slave.
I would suggest Ishtiaq Ahemad Sab , you should read islamic history particularly fiqah and hadiths.
The doctorin of Barelwis was "there is no Riyast e madina without jihad and Idol worshipers have only two choices convert or being killed because Jajia is only option for Ahl e Qitab according to Quran"
So , there is a lot of lies told by Ishtiaq Ahemad but I would say , it doesn't matter If an Iranian says that the Zoroastrians were good people, or a white American says that the Native Indians were very good.
Always a pleasure to hear Dr.Ahmed sir .
Wish you very good health & safety.
It is consoling to discover truth before dying, though I feel bad for living with lies all my life stretching to 71 years.
My late father born in 1920 always maintained that when you carve a small country out of a bigger country, you are asking for trouble.
The question is who started the trouble. Honestly contemplate it. MOOPLA RIOTS, DIRECT ACTION day, and many such incidences which led to partition were initiated by MUSLIM LEAGUE. Gandhi even said to HINDUS that even if you ALL get KILLED that is fine please do not retaliate. But this gesture was seen as cowardice and more and more attacks on HINDUS happened that is when HINDUS retaliated as a countermeasure for MUSLIM OFFENSE. So it is MUSLIMS who initiate an attack on HINDUS. Be it in pre-independence INDIA or NOW. look at all wars we have fought against Pakistan. Every one of them was started by Pakis.
Jinnah made fools of these people and the masses there is still fools.
British united India and held it together with brute force otherwise we would have several more countries in subcontinent instead of 3 countries now. It was Congress madness that propagated akhandh Bharat utopia. which caused great tragic split. Dr sahab being a social scientist ignoring this elephant in the room.
@@mohammadmian7700 Wrong theory. If what you say was right then we would have seen multiple splits of BHARAT after independence. That didn't happen. The partition happened because of JINAH. Read books by your own authors and you will get the right history. Reading is not your forte, right?
@@mohammadmian7700 Pakistani's are brainwashed radical, your kids are taught to hate INDIA. There are many interviews of random Pakistani teenagers spewing pure hate without any logic behind it.
This is probably the first time I have seen someone talking from a neutral perspective on partition in Pakistan.
Hope better sense prevails and situation improves there.
No chance
Agreed ! No chance indeed.
He is propagating his perspective from Sweden.
Kind of a Stockholm Syndrome
It's not neutral and neither objective. Any objective thought on partition would lead to the conclusion that it's stems from Qur'an which he eloquently avoids. Besides he praises nehru and gandhi for secularism not seeing that they were also opportunists who created same problems for people as Jinnah did.
Dr. Istiaq Ahmed Saab is an encyclopedia of matters related to partition!!! And he is also an exemplary humanist. People of India and Pakistan will forever be indebted to him for having impartially documented the tragedy of partition.
Always a great pleasure to listen to Dr. Ishtiaq Ahmed.
Great to see Nazir Mahmood. He taught me 26 years back to prepare for IBA exams.
I want more channels like this in India and Pakistan so people can see the reality.
Yes...lets thank Black Hole to give a stage bringing people on both sides together..rather divide them
we know all of this in india
@@youtubestudies4173 true 😊☺️
People in India are already aware of all this. The truth is that Pakistan never received Independence. They just went from an outright Colony to a Client State of Britain and America. The independence that they would have got was stolen from them by their Leaders.
This book and session is a gem. An eye opener.
I’ve listened whole episode in one sitting and literally had tears all the time my grand parents have been through this trauma…
Very interesting. The research and efforts of Dr. Ishtiaq Ahmed to bring out this book are highly commendable. I look forward to purchasing a copy of the book. I was born 8 1/2 months in Lahore,, before partition. I was with my parents on the fisrt train to be dynamited en route from Delhi to Karachi- my father's job as deputy secretary cabinet was to organise swearing in ceremony of the Quaid in Karachi. At another level, my maternal grandfather, Mir Maqbool Mahmood was a hero in the Jallianwala Bagh massacre. His testimony in the inquiry into Punjab Disturbances 1919-1920 led to Dwyer's removal from here.
Loved it….. excellent discussion…. Prof Ishtiaq Ahmed is a delight to listen to…
Great to see Dr Ahmed in Lahore.
🙏 From India.
All comments from Indians, seems there is no thirst for knowledge and truth in Pakistan .
They must be busy watching our news channel fighting debates or standing in cues for petrol .
Jokes apart, I don’t think pakistan has still out of that partition mindset, they are still fighting among themselves and keeping the 1947 alive in their own country and in their heart and mind.
Yes very true. On all sane works comming from Pakistan only indians see and appreciate it

Amazing session by a Great scholar please keep this kind of session more and invite such people and if you may identify any person on the Punjab partition it would be a great courtesy to us.
Thank you guys so much for doing this session.
I used to watch him with Qumar Cheema, Aliya and Tarik fath. He is really good person, speak by heart.
We should know real history, whether sweet or bitter. Bold and honest Dr. Ishtiaq Ahmed is doing a valuable service by his books and talks. 🙏🏽
It is surprising to note that all Sikh Gurus have names of Hindu gods or personalities and none have muslim names. Actually, it is said that actual practice of Sikh as a specific religious practice was started by Guru Govind Singh. It is also said that Hindus of that time used consider Sikhs are protector warriors of their religion and life and there was a practice of bringing up first male child as a Sikh....
oh yeah well than why did guru gobind Singh said hes a idol breaker?
Muslims se saath leke Khalistan banayengey Canada aur Australia mein. Jitna khud ko gair Hindu dukhane ka koshish mein Guru Gobind ke bachchon ka kaatilonse milnewalo ke ooper Daya aati hai...
Sikhism stands on the foundation of genial spirit of Sanatan Dharma, its Militant disposition arose due to continuous struggle with Islamic bigotry. Islam, for all its claims of superior conception of a monolithic God (Monotheistic sects are a well adjusted part of Hinduism by the way), was founded on the notions of haughtiness and superiority, and its history is littered with use of forced conversions, murder and rape (in fact no religious books other than Islam so overtly exhorts encourage Jihad by use of force). Hinduism is but a perverted version of Sanatan Dharma, it was necessary to unshackle its obsession with tunnel vision of idol worship, hence statement by Guru Gobind Singh about being an idol breaker.

I wholeheartedly THANK YOU for providing the only true record of events I have heard or read in my long life of 70 hard years.
I am surviving son of a refugee from Sialkot, who had to leave his home and ancestral birthplace, all his lifelong muslim friends, property, wealth and ended up as a refugee with nothing in Delhi.
I have heard thousands of tragic stories from hundreds of survivors on both sides of this Horrible Historic event which is glossed over as "Partition of India" in International HISTORY, seemingly insignificant in comparison with the equally abhorrent events of the HOLOCAST in Europe.
No one in my lifetime has produced a True and detailed Record of this horrendous decision by the few ELITE Politicians and Religious leaders and British Empire, who did not lose anything and had no Understanding of the Suffering of MILIONS.
I THANK YOU AGAIN on behalf of those MILIONS, whose future was ruined forever by the few EVIL, so called LEADERS of INDIA, and ILL conceived and forever crippled Pakistan.
Superb session - learned a lot, found it thought provoking and at times emotional too. Dimaag aur Dil dono ko chhoo liya 🙏👍👏👌

Very moving stories. It’s utmost important to continue to bring truth to light. Until we Pakistanis own up to the facts we shall remain a wandering tribe. We have almost become state parrots 🦜.

After 75 years we have many times extensively and honestly heard the true horrific story of partition of this subcontinent i.e.india from a Muslim pakistani.He has truly depicted the real villains and characters of this partition a very courageous step from a Muslim.Congratulations,Professor sahib and salute to your courageous efforts,studing British archives, meeting the effected Hindus,Sikhs and Muslim families,quoeting politicians and institutions of that period.We are indebted for your efforts and valuable studies by bringing true horrific picture of that painful period
I really miss my grandfather and father who sometimes talked about partition and only first real talk from Pakistani author.
Love the sheer enthusiasm of Dr. Ahmed.
Wonderful discussion 👏
Dear Dr Ahmed
Thank you very much for your book on what happened in Punjab on portion of India in 1947. There was urgent need of such a true exposition. I wish to let you know I was 5 year old in Lahore in the Krishan Nagar when this worst exodus of people happened on a scale never happened in the history of mankind before. The neighbours turned on neighbour when they had lived together for generations with no incidence. It is important for people on both sides to know the history which is only 77 years old. It is interesting to note after we arrived in Delhi as refugees we were worst treated & were dumped into a slum in Delhi full of diseases & sicknesses we never saw in Lahore. The division was a blunder which should not have happened but unfortunately it did. It has lead to permanent enmity between two nations & they have never apologised to the refugees whom they used the guinea pigs of the independence.
Dr saheb is a treasure for us. I learnt a lot from him. Great personality.
Vivek.
What a wonderful discussion 👍👍👍
🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳
This is a must watch for Indian Muslims, Hindus, Sikhs, who easily gets appease in the name of religion by leaders like Owaisi & other regional parties.
@Student of Klaus Schwab sooner or later you will realise, it's just that you have stopped using your mind.
Dr Ishtiaq is a true scholar; as painful as it is, we should listen and learn from him. else the lousy pages of history might even repeat itself.
Fewer comments by Pakistanis doesn't mean that there is no Pakistani literature, the problem is that this gentleman who is a doctor, respected, educated, was born in the wrong place, he should have been born in India. The reason for Pakistan's existence is ego or ideology. As a Pakistani, I fully believe in it and it was a great favor on the part of our leader that this country was given to us. After that, it was the weaknesses of our people. Due to which our country has reached this situation, it has reached this point, then the ideology of Pakistan was absolutely true and it is still true. I am and I have many differences with my country
An absolutely brilliant lecture, brilliant questions, and very moving function. Dr Ishtiaq Ahmed has done superb research and illuminated the very human element to Punjabs partition. God bless both Punjabs (east and west).
This man is a living legend.
What a great storyteller is Dr. Ishtiaq. Totally mesmerizing episode.
It would be very difficult for an average Pakistani to consume this truth. When you are taught all your life that Jinnah is God Like and you were imposed upon unfairly and you are the martyrs hearing atruth like this would make you go rudderless. It is the kind of mental shock an average human may not be able to take. I would suspect many Pakistanis would have found it difficult to sit through this discussion

@Student of Klaus Schwab Thanks for providing evidence for the point I was making
Thats why the attendance is so slim
@@PS-ic4bp I think attendance is low because very few in Pakistan has the habit of reading and this is an author who writes in English. Plus the subject itself

Indian Muslims has said," I have written them off."

Thanks for this presentation of this piece of our history.
Really heart touching stories 😥
I watched this conversation 10 times with my friends. Really 😔
I was born in Pakistan, I listened to almost all his lectures.
Love to hear this discussion. I share this show all my favourite cousin. Beautiful it.
As a 86 year Goan Indian American 50 years in India & 36 years in Georgia US born in Lahore in 1937 & therefore consider myself a Punjabi.
In India I worked in practically all Indian States. I was a Bombay Goan Catholic & worked with Hindus, Muslims, Parsees, Jains & all other communities before immigrating to the US in 1986.
Partition divided all families including mine into Pakistanis & Indians that when we went to our ancestral home in Goa for the summer holidays, in 1953 , I realized what that meant.
After hearing this UA-cam episode I pray to Almighty God that Pakistan & India come together again & become friends for the good of both countries & peoples. We are of one blood- and should NOT be divided.

Wooow. Such a touching conversation.
It has moved me so much.
I really appreciate this guy what he doing to the humanity
Great by dr ishtiaq sb a great logical thinker❤
As I understand from his talks that Mr.Ishtiq Ahmed would not have liked partion to take place .Because in post-independence ,non- partitioned India ,Muslims would have got the better of Hindus and thus ruled India.
So Partion has turned out to be a good thing for Hindus but a loosing proposition of Muslims.
You communal lot is the same as Jinnah
Very good discussion. Learnt a lot which I never knew before
As I see comments below. No one from Pakistan seems even watches these enlightening conversations. Such a sad thing 😢.
Just like no right wing Hindu nationalists would watch indian liberals rants similarly Pakistanis aren't interested in these Pakistani liberals anti state agendas and 95% of the Pakistanis happen to be right wing nationalists

Very nice session love n respect from india 🥰
Great respect for respected dr sahab, ❤ from Pakistan
Its curious, we were Bangladeshis, who were economic migrants into India ~ '67-'68, before that big cyclone. Fortunately we didn't have to see '71 war, its consequences and subsequent chaos of Bangladesh. But truth to be told, even India was piss poor those days (Pakistanis don't believe but India has grown leaps and bounds). But living in India(West Bengal) without citizenship, during the Naxal movement was no picnic either. Good thing is that relations with Bangladesh seem to be thawing. Normalcy can be seen on the horizon. We are developing joint infrastructures, Roads, Rail lines, Electricity lines, Water Ways, Ports, Bridges and military cooperation too.
The problem with Pakistanis is that they always see everything through the religious lens. India as a country(ignore the RW) has never had a problem with Islam. 180+ million Indian Muslims are thriving like they never could in present-day Pakistan. People may have their biases but Muslims still have an equal opportunity to serve their country in the armed forces, govt jobs, private jobs. We have good relations with Bangladesh, Maldives, The Middle East(UAE, SA, Qatar, Oman), Indonesia, Malaysia and Iran. Paki9
The fact is bengali muslims wanted pakistan and later on they shamelessly and illegally enter india.

Respect for u and your team sir !! 🙏🏼 Keep doing this work 🙏🏼

I have this book by Dr saab, tremendous book, very detailed and the book on partition Stern RECKONING by Justice G D KHOSLA is also recommended
we are very proud that you did such a remarkable work on history that finaly made us know the reality behind this so called independence, my grand parents are also from rajastan , district churu left everything there and started from zero here..... You are the best to speak the truth
Kashif Ali Saheb. there was a speaker at The Black Hole whose name is Dr. Sajjad Azhar, if i correctly remember. You could choose to listen to his talk where he begins to unravel the 'first' disturbances between Hindus and Muslims in the Rawalpindi area. He contends that the seeds of these 'riot' like situations from 1922-47 became the nuclei that seeded many more such nuclei in the context of Punjab. In his opinion, the centrality of the Rawalpindi communal strife to the conflagration in Punjab needs closer investigation.
My question to Prof. Ahmed: have you listened to this angle of the Punjab-wide riots, available in The Black Hole archives? Thank you for being your kind self, and the same to the organizers of The Black Hole series of talks.
Very nice and just moderator who gives enough space to Dr. Ahmad and informs and directs the public at the same time in a very correct way. I hope Dr. Ahmad is given opportunity to come to India and give talks all around India. It will be highly listened to and respected.
Thanks to both the Sirs, one for narrating such interesting facts of the unfortunate, black history of partition and the other Sir for being a moderator.
Well spent Sunday listening to this Podcast.
