Punjab’s history

A letter in The Indian Express responds to a discussion on Punjab's political history and argues for a more careful reading of the state's recent past. The central claim is that Punjab's history should be understood through its broader constitutional and administrative context, not through simplistic labels.

The letter is mainly corrective in tone. It warns against distorted storytelling and asks for a fair presentation of historical events, especially when public debate turns complex political history into shorthand judgments.
