Writers have interpreted India’s partition in a variety of ways. Some use satire in a highly critical language to comment on the better aspect of socio-political reality before and after partition; others relied on their personal vision; and some use the Marxist paradigm for interpreting reality. Tamas (1974) by Bhisham Sahni is “an intellectual atomy of the divide”. It combined three literary features stated above to study the structure and dynamics of the event and then the existing society with Marxist overtones. Partition was a terrible event that occurred in India. Many authors have emphasized it in their writings. Tamas was written by Bhishma Sahni, who expressed his emotions through the novel, and when it was telecasted on TV as a serial, it depicted the true anguish of partition. The suffering of men, women and children is a result of communal rioting.
