This episode of Tarikh explores the story of Dr. Shyama Prasad Mukherjee and the political battle over Bengal during India’s Partition. As the idea of a ‘United Bengal’ gained support in 1947, Mukherjee emerged as one of its strongest opponents, arguing that it could turn Bengal into a ‘virtual Pakistan.’ The episode revisits the riots, political negotiations, and ideological clashes that shaped the future of Bengal. It also traces Mukherjee’s later journey — from leaving the Hindu Mahasabha to founding the Bharatiya Jana Sangh in 1951, a party that later became the foundation of the Bharatiya Janata Party.
