Dastidar is a distinguished professor of State University of New York. As someone belonging to a family who was cleansed from Pakistan/Bangladesh, partition of India, and subsequent changes in India, Bangladesh and Pakistan have been of interest to him. He is a rare individual among tens of millions of Hindu refugees who has gone back to his ancestral home in Muslim-majority Bangladesh. He now helps thirty-three schools for the poor and the orphaned in Bangladesh, West Bengal, Assam, and Mizoram, having built nine schools/dorms in Bangladesh, and one more each in West Bengal and Mizoram states. Several of his books cover 1947 and 1971 partitions—Empire’s Last Casualty: Indian Subcontinent’s Vanishing Hindu and other Minorities; Living among the Believers; This Bengal, that Bengal (in Bengali); and This Is My Home (in Bengali). He has authored over seventy-five articles on the issues and has twice testified in Washington about the plight of non-Muslim minorities in a Muslim-majority subcontinent. He heads the Indian Subcontinent Partition Documentation Project (ISPaD).vizualizați mai puține
