Solution
Khushdeva Singh
Explanation:
Under the rubble of Partition's violence and pain is a vast history of assistance, humanity, and harmony. For example, consider the work of Khushdeva Singh, a Sikh doctor specialising in tuberculosis treatment who was stationed in Dharampur, Himachal Pradesh. Day and night, the doctor immersed himself in his work, providing a rare healing touch, food, shelter, love, and security to a large number of migrants, Muslim, Sikh, and Hindu alike. This doctor's arduous relief work is documented in his memoir, Love is Stronger than Hate: A Remembrance of 1947. Singh describes his work as "humble efforts I made as a human being to discharge my duty to fellow human beings."
