Union Minister Hardeep Singh Puri said the Congress government was “short-sighted” during partition which had devastating consequences for the people. He was attending an event on Partition Horror Remembrance Day as the guest of honor.
The event was hosted at the freshly inaugurated Partition Museum in Ambedkar University and organised by the Ministry of Culture. Mr. Puri spoke about the horrors of partition and how his family was one of many that lived through the reality of displacements. Mr. Puri said “Who did what, whose fault, it is all documented, there was one man Mahatma Gandhi, who saw what was happening and it happened in spite of his being aware.”
