Looking for news at Pakistan expo

CHANDIGARH: While many people turned up at Made in Pakistan expo for shopping, Panchkula resident, S H L Sehni, who was 10 at the time of Partition when his family migrated to India, came here only to meet those who were left behind in 1947. He spent time with Pakistani traders inquiring about his hometown, the old buildings and markets.
Before Partition, we used to stay at Campbellpur, which is now Atak.One day when I came from my school, I was shocked to see that the house was empty and my parents had left the house because of Partition. A Muslim family took me to my parents, said Sehni.
He said his reason for coming to this expo was to revive old memories. I could not find any body from Atak but I met Zumord Khan who had visited Atak. He told me that it has changed a lot, he added.
Sehni and many others like him who migrated to India came to the exhibition to walk down memory lane, talking to people from Pakistan who might be from their city or the locality where they once stayed.
A lot of people feel nostalgic when they hear that the product has been made in Rawalpindi or Peshawar. Many had migrated to Indian Punjab and continue to share the emotional bond, said a trader.
