Summary: 
The article traces the journey of three partition survivors (two from West Bengal & one from Bangladesh) back to their erstwhile ancestral home after almost 70 years. In the cathartic moment of being one with the ancestral home, there's an emotional commonality among survivors, which rather than partitioning, immediately connects them with one another, transcending the cartographic reality of borders. www.academia.edu/43889989/When_Partition_survivors_visited_home_across_Radcliffe_Line
