Ajeet Cour is a survivor of domestic violence. She has revealed this traumatic experience in her autobiographical books titled “Kooda Kabada” and “Khanabadosh” in Punjabi, translated as ‘Weaving Water’ by Masooma Ali and Meenu Minocha. In her autobiographical book, Cour revealed her suffocated life despite being an economically independent woman. She said, ”A husband’s beatings, hatred and disgust and getting thrown out of the house repeatedly. I had borne everything, despite earning and sustaining myself and my daughters.”
Despite having faced such hardship in her personal life, Cour has contributed a lot to the literary works of her native Indian language of Punjabi and to the literary and cultural fraternity of India and the Indian subcontinent. She received the Sahitya Academy Award in 1985, a prestigious literary award of India. She is also a recipient of Padma Shri, one of the highest civilian honors in India, in 2006.
