Amandeep will talk about his\u00a0book ‘Panjab-Journeys Through Faultlines’ (2019).\u00a0 ‘Panjab’, a well informed and carefully researched book on the history, geography, society, and economics of the land of the five rivers, is a deeply moving narrative of a journey the author undertook to discover and reconnect with his roots. In this process of learning, he re-introduces us to a land that we have all but forgotten.\u00a0

Historically and culturally, known as the\u00a0land of the ten Gurus and for\u00a0the majestic Golden Temple,\u00a0 Panjab is also recognized for the physical\u00a0barrier that it provides to safeguard the rest of the country; a land of brave soldiers, a place full of old-world charm. Among other things, it is famous for its spirit of sharing, haunting music, free-spirited dance style, culinary delights, and last but not the least, as the breadbasket of India.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Today, Panjab is also a land steeped in political movements, struggling for religious and caste identities, facing a gender imbalance and an imminent economic, social, and environmental downfall. 
‘Panjab’, the book, documents these changes.  Amandeep’s book acquaints the readers with the current Panjab, reeling under the after-effects of the three big changes that occurred in the previous century: the Partition of India and Pakistan, the Green Revolution, and the Khalistan non-movement. The book has seen critical, commercial, and emotional success at home and at places with large populations of Indian and Panjabi diaspora.  
Amandeep’s talk will focus on ‘land’ and its value in an agrarian society like ours. He will interweave personal, historical, and societal recollections in his talk.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"featured_media":19287,"template":"","meta":{"_links_to":"","_links_to_target":""},"event_listing_category":[145,148],"event_listing_type":[126],"class_list":["post-19286","event_listing","type-event_listing","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","event_listing_category-krea-main-events","event_listing_category-siasmainevent","event_listing_type-seminar-or-talk","entry"],"yoast_head":"\nAn Evening with Amandeep Sandhu | Krea University - Top university for liberal education<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/krea.edu.in\/sias\/event\/an-evening-with-amandeep-sandhu\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"An Evening with Amandeep Sandhu\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"Amandeep will talk about his\u00a0book ‘Panjab-Journeys Through Faultlines’ (2019).\u00a0 ‘Panjab’, a well informed and carefully researched book on the history, geography, society, and economics of the land of the five rivers, is a deeply moving narrative of a journey the author undertook to discover and reconnect with his roots.
