The untold vivid portrayal of human tragedy on the eastern flank of Bengal before, during and after Partition.
In 1947, East Bengal was drenched with as much blood as was shed in Punjab. Seen through the eyes of Maloy Krishna Dhar as a young boy making the perilous journey to India—escaping to a ‘new’ India from an ‘old’ India that had become East Pakistan, the memoir tells the story of the rapid deterioration of age-old bonds between Bengali Hindus and Muslims, of the cruelest violence comparable to the worst genocides in history. In pre-Partition East Bengal, religion had taken centre stage in sub-continental politics.

Train to India is a unique rendition and a graphic account of those tumultuous times in the eastern wing of India, revealed here for the first time.
