  • Descrição: [...]this article could potentially interest architectural historians of Chandigarh motivated to investigate the contributions of Indian architects to the city, and to scholars of art historiography. Refugees travelling in both directions were murdered by mobs in acts of reciprocal violence, with two million dead and seventeen million displaced.4 The government of Indian East Punjab faced a colossal refugee problem which was compounded because the government was functioning without an administrative or state capital.5 Short-term arrangements were made to host the local government in the hill station of Shimla (in what would become Himachal Pradesh), the previous summer residence of the British colonial government. [...]the use of the modernist architectural language was as much ideological as it was aesthetic. [...]it should be apparent that various interpretations and articulations of Chandigarh's history exist, as will be subsequently expanded in the research context section.
