Memories: Nirmal Kaur and her brother Ujjal Singh, who lives on Burford Road in Whalley Range

Remembering one of history’s darkest hours

FOLLOWING 20 years of slaughter and civil unrest, the British announced the partition of India on June 3, 1947. Over one million people were killed in the troubles that followed. Tales of extraordinary courage, heroism, violence and murder abounded during this tumultuous period which would change the face of India forever. On the 60th anniversary of Indian independence people in south Manchester have been recounting their memories of the partition years as part of a new exhibition at the Imperial War Museum North.
