Question

Imagine yourself as a landlady living in post-partition India (1948). A refugee with his family has come to you asking for a flat on rent. Write a meaningful, fictional interview between yourself and the family in 200 words.

Answer 1

Answer:

The year was 1948 when the riots were at their peak and Muslims and Hindus were attacking each other.

Explanation:

• One night when we were sleeping, someone knocked at our door.
• We woke up and my son opened the door.
• I heard some people begging to get refuge and my son was declining.
• When I reached there, I saw a Muslim family, husband, wife with their four little children.
• I talked to my family and tried to convince them.
• They said that it was dangerous giving refuge to a Muslim family.
• However, I successfully convinced them because, for me, humanity was everything.
