[Prabhakar]

I was looking for Toba Tek Singh on the internet but found this link to short stories in Devnagari script and decided to provide the link here since I can not find any other forum where I can.

This is a treasure for those of us who live abroad and do not easy access to books in Hindi. Hope you explore and enjoy it.

Here is the link :

Hi
Kuchh mera hisaab aissa hee hai ki topic ko chhor kar idhar udhar ki baat mein lag jaata hoon. Sahir saheb ki thread mein Takseem Hind ki baat shuroo kar dee.

Harjinderji,
Jahan tak inssani dard aur dardmandi ki baat jaati hai sab kuchh Sahir se juda hai aur takseem ka to Sahir ki shayari aur zindagi par gahra rishta hai.Takseem par baat karna yaa Manto par baat karna Sahir se door jana nahin hai, kyonki hum un kadron ki baat kar rahen hain jinse Sahir gahre jude the.

Prabhakarji,
Link ke liye shukriya.

Ab main fir Sahir par aata hoon.
Dard ki baat ho li, ab thodi dawa ki baat :

Hi
after reading your emotional outpouring about the partition of Hindustan , some personal memories and anecdotes come to mind. I am from a village in Ludhiana and in 1947 when the mass migration had started I remember my grandpa being asked by our Muslim neighbors who were Gujjars to take them to a camp at Raikot. My Dada ( as Grandpa is often referred to in Punjabi) did not want them to go and I often heard him pleading with them to stay in the village.But these events were of a far greater magnitude than he or most other people could influence. So he did finally take them to the camp and I remember them leaving, their womenfolk crying and men grimfaced.I also remember (I was a kid less than 5 years old) about six months later asking my grandpa as to when those families would come back and his answer full of sadness was that they would not.
My grandpa owned some farmland in tehsil Cheecho Watni district Montgomery (now Sahiwal) and a few months before August 1947 as he was getting ready to go there my father telling him not to go saying " aiss wele uthey halat theek naheen' and my grandpa just sat down on a Manja (cot) and did not get up for a long time.
Later we did get our property re-allotted in a nearby village.
Then many years later in a University class at Harvard, In Cambridge Mass. my younger daughter had enrolled in a Hindi/Urdu class. Most of the students were from South Asia and one day her teacher asked in class as to what the students knew about the partition of India. Some South Indian students said they had heard of it.Some North Indians knew a little bit more about it. But when he asked my daughter, her answer was that this was a topic that got talked about in her household almost every day. And she was surprised as to how little it seemed to matter to others.Her teacher's reply was that it depended upon who was most affected by it and Punjabees certainly were.It affects our lives and emotions even now. Mind you we (my family) were about 50 or so miles away from the closest point of the newly demarcated border. We did not suffer any losses, in men, women,or materials. But I do feel for people who lost their family members and possessions and can understand their feelings. In the movie Maachis Om Puri's character has some choice things to say about this Azaadi and lots of Punjabees would agree with him.Azadi was 'barbadi' for some and I guess, deliverance from slavery for many others. Harjinder

Harjinder ji..
I am moved by what happened to your family. sometimes, it is not the materialism that counts, but the attachments....woh ped..woh ghar..woh jameen..woh gaon...I can understand you totally. I am lucky because, i am a south indian and born much after the partition so never felt the pangs of the partition. The biggest burden will be on those who took that decision and they will carry it in netherworld too..
Here is a gem of a song, which makes us wonder what we do really want in life ..afterall..Yeh duniya agar mil bhi jaye to kya hai? Sahir ka ek aur anmol tofah hum sab ke liye...

Yeh duniya agar mil bhi jaye to kya hai?

Hi
Thanks for the video upload of 'Pyasa' song 'Ye duniya agar mil bhi jaaye...' Sahir and Guru Dutt were two people in movieland who could genuinely express the anguish and sadness of their times and of that era.Pyasa is a good example of these two combining their talents to make an ode to the powerless and to the 'bebassi'that is part of their day to day existence.Harjinder

Harjinder ji,
Is song me sirf powerless ya bebasi nahin hai. Jahan sirf bebasi hoti hai wahan hatasha ka dhuwan hota hai, jab ki yahan dhuwan nahin aag hai : Jala Do Ise Phoonk Dalo Ye Duniya...
Bebasi ko Phoonk dalne wali is aag ki wajah se hi Sahir, Sahir hain.

Simplefable ji, thanks for this Sahir gem.
Looking more from you.
