Hardeep Singh Puri recalls parents' Partition scars on Remembrance Day

A very sad event happened in India a long time ago called the Partition.

When India became its own country in 1947, the land was split and many families had to leave their homes.

It was a violent and painful time for millions of people.

A government leader named Hardeep Singh Puri gave a message to remember this difficult time.

His own parents went through the Partition, and his father escaped to India with only the clothes he was wearing.

Even though they lost everything, his family showed great courage and started their lives over.

Every year, people mark this day as Partition Horrors Remembrance Day.

Mr. Puri asked everyone to remember the pain of those who suffered and to honor their strength.
