Speakers and agenda ~

In a chilling recollection from 1947, Mr. Jasbir Bhatia will share his journey of migration in 1947 foot. His life long desire has also inspired Mr. Bhatia to volunteer and record oral histories of other witnesses like himself.

Dr. Erin Riggs was inspired to study the architectural evolution of Delhi due to Partition, and in the process made some intriguing discoveries about the capital city and National Capital Region's history. Dr. Riggs went on to win a Fullbright Scholarship to live and study in Delhi.

Dr. Guneeta Singh Bhalla is the founder of The 1947 Partition Archive and will reflect on the journey from 0 to 10,000 oral histories, and building the largest oral history repository on any topic in South Asia.
