The Delhi outpost of the acclaimed Amritsar Partition Museum, housed in the historic Dara Shikoh Library, documents the 1947 Partition of India through oral histories, personal testimonies, photographs, and archival material. It is emotionally powerful and meticulously researched, filling a significant gap in how India publicly remembers this trauma. The building itself — one of Delhi's oldest libraries — is worth visiting independently. Go on a weekday for a more contemplative experience.
