摘要:Train to Pakistan (1956), Khushwant Singh’s literary debut originallypublished as Mano Majra, is a gripping story and it is this quality of the novel,which arrests the attention of the reader from start to finish. Throughout, the actionsweeps one along. The characters are vivid and highly credible and KhushwantSingh keeps them going magnificently on two levels- their passion of love andrevenge. Khushwant Singh, through this novel wants to convey that love doesn’tbelieve in any barriers – social, political or religions. Love is governed by noreligion and by no ideology. It is rather governed by the dictates of the heart whichare above the reach of religious dogmas and racial prejudices.
