Citizen Refugee

Citizen Refugee
Uditi Sen explores how partition refugees were used as agents of nation-building in post-colonial India. Utilising archival records and oral histories, Sen analyses official policies towards Hindu refugees, and their own perspectives 'from below'. This book expands our understanding of popular politics and citizenship in post-partition India.
