Description
In the 9th episode of Agla Warqa, building upon the theme of divided waters, Amy invites Amir Malik to read Mohd. Ateef Aleem’s story “Mayi Hajiyani banam Usha Rani.”  This is a heart-wrenching story of Indian and Pakistani fishermen who in pursuit of their bread end up fighting the storms, invisible borders of the Arabian sea, and the oblivion of cross-border jails. Agla Warqa, the partition podcast hosted by Amy Singh tries to answer Amrita's request. It tries to turn a new page in the story of the Indo-Pak partition.
