The partition of India led to millions of Hindus, Muslims and Sikhs fleeing their homes during terrible religious violence. This is the second of two programmes remembering that time. Listen to the story of Chandra Joashi, who was only 12-years-old when his family was caught on the wrong side of the dividing line.
