Partition and Resettlement in Lahore (1947)
When the Partition of India struck in 1947, bringing with it unimaginable upheaval, Haji Kareem Ahmed made the difficult decision to migrate to Lahore, carrying nothing but faith, his family, and his original recipes.
With him were his son and grandsons, who helped him rebuild the Jalandhar Motichoor House in Lahore — not just as a shop, but as a living continuation of the original spirit: resilience, sweetness, and shared heritage.
“Borders changed, but tradition followed — carried in our hands and our hearts.”From the narrow lanes of Jalandhar to the vibrant neighborhoods of Lahore, the essence of the laddus remained unchanged — handmade, pure, and unforgettable.
