Centre for Policy Research @CPR_IndiaHow do people and communities move beyond histories of rupture to rebuild lives, relationships, and possibilities of living together? The Partition of 1947 was more than a political and territorial division. It ruptured communities, identities, cultures, relationships, and ideas of home and belonging. Nearly eight decades later, its violence, displacement and memories continue to shape the social and political imagination of the subcontinent. How is Partition remembered across generations, and how do these memories shape the ways we understand history, identity and belonging? The Centre for Policy Research invites you to ‘Revisiting the Partition of 1947: History, Memory, and Remembrance’, a symposium that brings together perspectives from journalism, political science, historical research and the study of memory to reflect on the legacies of Partition and the possibilities of living together beyond histories of rupture. The symposium will feature Shri Ram Bahadur Rai, Chairman of Indira Gandhi National Center for the Arts (@ignca_delhi), Ministry of Culture, Government of India (@MinOfCultureGoI); recipient of Padma Bhushan and Padma Shri, as Chief Guest. The speakers include Lady Kishwar Desai, Chairperson of Arts & Cultural Heritage Trust, Partition Museum (@PartitionMuseum) (Amritsar and Delhi); Vivek Shukla, Senior Journalist; Professor Rekha Saxena (@ProfRekhaSaxena), Senior Professor and Head of the Department of Political Science, Delhi University; and Souradeep Banerjee (@banerjeeakash33), Doctoral Candidate in Political Science, Temple University, USA. The event is being curated by Ashwani Kumar (@Ashwanitiss), Senior Visiting Fellow, CPR. Tuesday, 13 October 2026 | 4 PM IST onwards The event will be held at the CPR office (Dharma Marg, Chanakyapuri, New Delhi) and online over Zoom.
