Partition—the rapid, uncoordinated, and bloody split between India and Pakistan after the Second World War—remains the central event of South Asian history. But 1947 wasn't the only partition, according to historian and filmmaker Sam Dalrymple. Sam, in his book Shattered Lands: Five Partitions and the Making of Modern Asia (William Collins, 2025), notes that “British India” once spanned all the way from the Arabian Peninsula to the border with Thailand, covering South Arabia, South Asia and Burma. Yet between 1937 and 1971, the region split into various different national entities, creating the countries and borders we see today. Sam is a historian, filmmaker, and cofounder of Project Dastaan, a peacebuilding initiative that reconnects refugees displaced by the 1947 partition of India.

In this conversation, writer and historian Aanchal Malhotra joins Charuka on the Arts to Hearts Project podcast to talk about the stories hidden in everyday objects. From her own family's silence around Partition to her work archiving heirlooms in the Museum of Material Memory, Aanchal shares how objects become carriers of memory, intimacy, and history. Charuka adds her personal story of wearing her late mother's sarees, and together they reflect on how things stop being just “things” once they're infused with memory.

In this revisited episode, we have a very special show because we are celebrating the anniversary of Independent India, which fell on August 15th. Our special guest is Shukla Lal, a writer based in New Delhi, who has recently written a book detailing her personal experience from the partition that led to India's Independence. We hear the amazing story of her father's incredible escape in the midst of the violence and mayhem of the partition. Later in the episode, Shukla's daughter, Sonia Kullar, reads an excerpt from Shukla's book, Rano and Phulo. IN THIS EPISODE: [01:50] Shukla and her new book on the 75th Anniversary of the Partition of India are introduced. [05:39] We hear about Shukla's family's experience before the partition and how her father escaped. [11:45] We learn how her true events are interwoven into her short story. [14:30] We explore how Shukla's story captures an India frozen in time. [18:50] Has India grown into the identity it desired after the partition? [21:16] We hear about the future of India and more about Shukla's written work. [24:57] An excerpt from Rano & Phulo written by Shukla Lal, and read by Shukla's daughter, Sonia Kullar KEY TAKEAWAYS: Shukla and her family left for Shimla on holiday, never believing that they would not return to their home due to rising political and religious tensions, now known as the partition of India. Her book is based on her family's experience during this time. Following the partition, there was a renewed sense of nationalism and patriotism. It was also a time where women were leading out in entrepreneurship and contributing as business women. India continues to rise and be recognized for its culture and ethics. Since the 60s and 70s it has grown from being a developing and poor nation to being a globally recognized and self-respecting nation. Subscribe to Reenita's Storytelling Den on Substack for free!

As a child, she imbibed the beauty and diversity of this beautiful land – India, as her family moved from Amritsar, Lahore, Shimla, to the Central and Southern cities of Madras (now Chennai), Nagpur and Hyderabad and eventually found their anchor in Calcutta (now Kolkata) in the early-1950s. Over 40 years later, she moved to New Delhi to retire. Since catching the literary bug on her 80th birthday, Shukla has written two historical romance sagas, Floating Logs set in Kolkata (published by Notion Press in December 2019), and Rano and Phulo set in Undivided and then partitioned India (published by Goya Publishing in March, 2019), and a collection of poems, Meri Nazmon ka Ehsaas (soon to be published) all captured gamely on her iPad Notes App. She has finished the first draft of her third historical novel, Soul's Rapture, a mystical romance set in Lahore and Mumbai. She has also written several short stories. She was invited to write for the Chandigarh Tribune, and has been interviewed for the Reader's Digest, the Times of India, the Telegraph (Kolkata), and www.womensweb.com. Her deep spiritual practice and sense of wonder for the beauty of the world around her find expression in her storytelling. Her own lived experience adds luster and authenticity to her stories. Joyful wit and multilingual expressiveness is a family trait she inherited from her parents and shares with her accomplished siblings. Her choice of stories and writing style could best be understood from her own words “I am a romantic and an idealist by nature and find true romance scattered everywhere irrespective of class, creed, religion, nationality or age”.

Moving beyond the conventional geopolitical lens, they delve into the deep historical roots of identity politics, the processes of national homogenisation, the “hostage minority” phenomenon, and the idea that the two nations are fundamentally entangled in each other's identities.Atul Mishra is also a mentor with the Network for Advanced Study of Pakistan Fellowship, a program dedicated to advancing high-quality scholarship on Pakistan by nurturing a new generation of analysts across academia, think tanks, media, and industry.All Things Policy is a daily podcast on public policy brought to you by the Takshashila Institution, Bengaluru.Find out more on our research and other work here: https://takshashila.org.in/research-areasCheck out our public policy courses here: https://school.takshashila.org.in

It's Part 2....so if you haven't already go back and listen to part 1 first. Think you can just raw dog it without having any of Ireland's backstory, think again. We pick back up at a major event in Irish history, The Blight, or as most of us know it The Great Irish Potato Famine. Ireland is hurting and the people in charge, currently the English, aren't doing a whole lot to help. This combined with a whole list of issues with English rule (discussed in part 1) most of the inhabitants of the Emerald Isle have had enough. What follows is the story of Ireland's fight for independence, the individuals who rose as leaders of the movement, and the 'Troubles' experienced while battling for freedom. Support the show
Step back into 1947—the year that forever changed the Indian subcontinent. In this episode, we explore the harrowing Partition of India and Pakistan, when millions were forced to migrate across hastily drawn borders. We delve into the untold stories of displacement, loss, and survival, and the poetry that emerged from the ashes of violence and trauma. Through haunting verses of Faiz Ahmed Faiz, Amrita Pritam, and others, we reflect on the shared grief and resilience of those who lived through the world's largest mass migration.

E128 The Fifth Court – Drawing the Line: The Story of the Irish Boundary CommissionDr. Cormac Moore – an historian with Dublin City Council's Historian-in-Residence programme and author of Birth of the Border: The Impact of Partition in Ireland. He is a recognised authority on the politics, personalities, and legal frameworks surrounding the Irish border.It was meant to settle the border between North and South once and for all. Instead, it nearly collapsed the Irish Free State government. On this episode of The Fifth Court, barristers Peter Leonard and Mark Tottenham are joined by historian Dr. Cormac Moore, who explains the secretive, scandal-ridden tale of the Irish Boundary Commission of 1924–25—a political time bomb buried in the Anglo-Irish Treaty.From leaked maps to aborted transfers of land, Dr. Moore lays out how the Commission's quietly explosive findings were suppressed, how the Free State's hopes were dashed, and why the whole affair continues to echo in Irish constitutional law and cross-border politics today.Cormac's cultural reference...a movie 'The Treaty' on YouTube, and he also loves 'Amadeus', the movie.Before that, they examine notable recent court decisions featured on Decisis.ie including:An AI case...artificial insemination that is. A case about bull semen and a woman who, it was claimed, was acting as though she were a vet. The Veterinary Council of Ireland got involved.A defamation case where the wrong person was identified as having been on the tax defaulters list. Qualified privilege did not arise.A case involving a medical practitioner who it was said about him, had a persistent delusional disorder. The Medical Council was on one side.Whether you're in practice or just passionate about the law, this episode is a must-listen for its clarity, depth, and practical relevance.Sponsored by Charltons Solicitors and Collaborative Practitioners – family law with a collaborative approach.

Much of world history is Indian history. Home today to one in four people, the subcontinent has long been densely populated and deeply connected to Asia, Africa, Europe, and the Americas through migration and trade. In this magisterial history, Audrey Truschke tells the fascinating story of the region historically known as India--which includes today's India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, and parts of Afghanistan--and the people who have lived there. A sweeping account of five millennia, from the dawn of the Indus Valley Civilization to the twenty-first century, this engaging and richly textured narrative chronicles the most important political, social, religious, intellectual, and cultural events. And throughout, it describes how the region has been continuously reshaped by its astonishing diversity, religious and political innovations, and social stratification. Here, readers will learn about Hinduism, Buddhism, Jainism, Islam, and Sikhism; the Vedas and Mahabharata; Ashoka and the Mauryan Empire; the Silk Road; the Cholas; Indo-Persian rule; the Mughal Empire; European colonialism; national independence movements; the 1947 Partition of India; the recent rise of Hindu nationalism; the challenges of climate change; and much more. Emphasizing the diversity of human experiences on the subcontinent, the book presents a wide range of voices, including those of women, religious minorities, lower classes, and other marginalized groups. You cannot understand India today without appreciating its deeply contested history, which continues to drive current events and controversies. A comprehensive and innovative book, India is essential reading for anyone who is interested in the past, present, or future of the subcontinent. Audrey Truschke is professor of South Asian history at Rutgers University, Newark. She is the bestselling author of Aurangzeb: The Life and Legacy of India's Most Controversial King and other books.

BSA, MIRD, or voxel-based dosimetry? Join us for part 2 of Dosimetry University where interventional oncologists Dr. Tyler Sandow, Dr. Nima Kokabi, and Dr. Kavi Krishnasamy explore and debate the critical nuances of a successful Y90 procedure, covering dosing methods, lung shunt management, and when to incorporate other therapeutic approaches. --- This podcast is supported by: Sirtexhttps://www.sirtex.com/ Medtronic Emprinthttps://www.medtronic.com/emprint --- SYNPOSIS The episode begins with a discussion on methodologies for calculating lung shunt fractions using planar imaging versus SPECT CT. The physicians highlight the implications of various dosimetry models, including BSA (Body Surface Area), MIRD (Medical Internal Radiation Dose), and voxel-based dosimetry for determining prescribed activity. Drawing on their clinical experience, they address the management of high lung shunt fraction cases and the application of therapeutic strategies like TACE (Transarterial Chemoembolization) and SBRT (Stereotactic Body Radiotherapy). The conversation also covers the roles of cryoablation and microwave ablation in treating centrally located lesions. The episode concludes with a case study emphasizing the importance of individualized dosimetry planning. --- TIMESTAMPS 00:00 - Introduction01:05 - Lung Shunt Calculation Methods06:42 - BSA, MIRD, and Voxel-Based Dosimetry16:03 - High Lung Shunt Management30:02 - Case Study: Liver Tumor Treatment34:10 - Cryo vs Microwave: A Safer Option?35:42 - Y-90 Procedure: Imaging and Techniques43:35 - Dosimetry and Dose Calculations51:10 - Post-Treatment Analysis and Outcomes57:51 - Transplant Considerations and Aggressive Treatments58:18 - Conclusion and Final Thoughts
