The exhibition holds great importance as it aims to offer a comprehensive and poignant portrayal of the experiences endured by countless individuals during the partition of India. It will provide a platform for visitors to engage with the agony, suffering, sacrifices, struggles, and pain that the people of the nation went through during this tumultuous period. By presenting historical artifacts, narratives, and visual representations, the exhibition seeks to depict the harrowing realities faced by those who lost their lives due to the partition and were forcibly uprooted from their homes.

Moreover, the exhibition aims to reinforce the values of unity, social harmony, and human empowerment. By engaging with the stories of the past, visitors are prompted to recognize the importance of fostering a sense of togetherness and understanding among diverse communities.
