Amidst the tension, there was still a hope of starting a new life in a free country. Remembering the partition horror, the victims and their sufferings. #HPCL #14thAugust #HPCLRetail HPCL #HPCL #14thAugust #HPCLRetail

Be it trains, steamers or even on foot. People crossed the borders taking any means of transport that was accessible to them. #HPCL #14thAugust #HPCLRetail HPCL #HPCL #14thAugust #HPCLRetail

From struggling to board the last train to what was once the same motherland, to staying hungry and thirsty for days. Suffering had assumed giant proportions. #HPCL #14thAugust #HPCLRetail HPCL #HPCL #14thAugust #HPCLRetail

India has always been a land of agriculture and farming. But during the partition, even India, the world’s largest producer of wheat, saw people fighting for food. #HPCL #14thAugust #HPCLRetail HPCL #HPCL #14thAugust #HPCLRetail

The Indo-Pak partition saw a lot of people lose not just their homes but also their loved ones. It was a tough time for many, as they were separated from their family members. #HPCL #14thAugust #HPCLRetail HPCL #HPCL #14thAugust #HPCLRetail

During the period, a lot of women went missing and were kidnapped. A government machinery was set up to search and rehabilitate these women. #HPCL #14thAugust #HPCLRetail HPCL #HPCL #14thAugust #HPCLRetail

The refugees took every possible route on their way. The Mumbai port was flooded with people travelling back and forth, as securing a seat on the train was difficult. #HPCL #14thAugust #HPCLRetail HPCL #HPCL #14thAugust #HPCLRetail

The refugees didn't only face violence on the streets but were also hit by floods. They had to face the wrath of nature on the way, resulting in hunger and the spread of diseases. #HPCL #14thAugust #HPCLRetail @HPCL #HPCL #14thAugust #HPCLRetail
