Abstract
The Partition of the Punjab 1947 made the history of the Indian subcontinent a particularly significant chapter in the recorded annals of the world. It witnessed events of varied political, social and cultural dimensions that impacted on the lives of millions and effected nations and states newly born out of the yoke and bondage of imperialism. Demographically speaking the Punjab was a large province, politically a very vibrant one and economically very critical, yet it was dissected with an utter lack of acumen, expertise or sensitivity to its status, populace or position.
