Pakistan was a part of India and Bangladesh was a part from Pakistan.

Somehow a sad story, also what happends since some months  in Burma.

Yah, none of that would be so if not for muhammed, his madness and spreading it over the globe, Islam takes credit for that one again, like so many things

In India’s most popular political party of the time Congress, Mr. Jinnah was a famous Muslim leader and he was initially opposed to partition on religious lines. But by late 20’s he was losing influence and appeal in Indian national politics.

Elections to the provinces seemed to indicate that Congress did well in the General Constituencies (where there were no reservations for any religious group) but the League's success in the seats reserved for Muslims was just spectacular and enormous! So, obviously, Jinnah, keen on political power, thought that he could be the first Prime Minister if there was a separate nation for Muslims. So, it was only in 1946 that he demanded for PAKISTAN.

In March 1946, the British Cabinet sent a three member mission to Delhi to examine this demand and suggest a suitable political framework. It agreed that India should remain united with some autonomy for Muslims in N.Western and Eastern areas but they could not make the Congress and the League unite to agree to the specific details of the proposal. The Muslim League would not give up either, as it had fixed in mind that it would come into power if a separate nation was formed for Muslims was formed. Partition became more or less inevitable.

The actual transfer of power to India and Pakistan proved to be bloody and bitter.The estimated loss of life during the partition of India is one million. Besides, 14-18 million people were forced to cross the international border in search of safe havens.

According to the partition memory of 1947, Gangs of killers set whole villages aflame, hacking to death men and children and the aged while carrying off young women to be raped. Some British soldiers and journalists who had witnessed the Nazi death camps claimed Partition’s brutalities were worse: pregnant women had their breasts cut off and babies hacked out of their bellies; infants were found literally roasted on spits.

By March 1947, hundreds of thousands of people were killed and violence had spread, women were raped, millions forced to leave their homes and become mere alien refugees in another country, India changed, many of its cities changed, and a new country Pakistan was born.
So, the joy of our independence from British rule came with the pain and violence of partition.
