| Summary/Abstract |
Let me frankly admit that reminiscences about one of those sultry, summer evenings in India drove this author once to hark back to the year 2013, when a television show was on in Tashkent. The programme
was too interesting to take away eyes from it. It was a special programme devoted to the life and work of Amrita Pritam - one of India's most celebrated poets and writers. Pritam is no more; but her immortal works are very much vivid in Indian minds was evidenced by the television show. It reminded me of the last meeting I had with this great Indian personality at the fag end of the year when 1996 was bidding adieu to the world. It was at her home in Delhi. It was an extremely friendly ambience in the evening and I do vividly remember the interesting discussions we had together along with her family members. In that
memorable evening we talked about various aspects of Indo-Uzbek relations, particularly in the fields of culture, literature and people to people contacts between India and Uzbekistan.
