Abstract
The city of Lahore held esteem importance in the north India during British Raj. This value had converted the city of Lahore into a battleground between the communities fighting for maintenance of their supremacy in times of partition of the country. The main aim behind the communal war of succession was to get hold over this historical city. Muslims were majority community in British Lahore. However, their persisted poor financial condition had not allowed them to elevate into a strong middle class. Hindus, on the other hand held strong marks of middle class and had the edge of showing supremacy. Sikhs were, despite being poor, in the same camp with Hindus. This kind of positioning of communities had ensued a battle to emulate with the city in any hostile situation. We see the emergence of same sense of emulation when it comes to adopting the violence as a tool to get hold over the city.
