PARTITION OF INDIA

The Partition of India was the partition of the British IndianEmpire that led to the creation of the sovereign states of the Dominion of Pakistan (which later split into Pakistan and Bangladesh) and the Union of India (later Republic of India) on 15 August 1947.

The most saddening event in the history of modern India was partition. India was broken down into two states on the basis for religion. One part created was for the Muslims, Pakistan and the other was said to be Hindu dominated India. Partition was said to create ripples in both the communities which would not heal for many years to come and not to mention, the rivalry for 65 years.






Partition of Bengal (1905)


Bengal was partitioned by the British, in 1905, along religious lines - a Muslim majority state of East Bengal and a Hindu majority state of West Bengal. 
There were dozens of violent riots, between Muslims and Hindus, in the 1910s through the 1930s

Partition of British India (1947)


 The British followed a divide-and-rule policy. In that respect, Indian Muslims were encouraged to forge a cultural and political identity separate from the Hindus.
 In the years leading up to Independence, Mohammad Ali Jinnah became increasingly concerned about minority position of Islam in an independent India largely composed of a Hindu majority.

Partition is somehow only on the basis of religious grounds.And whenever religion and politics come in contact of each other it always lead to a large destruction and massacre,ALWAYS.

You can take any worldwide example to justify this fact.


So to prevent the war from happening we need to keep religion and politics separated.



The Partition of Bengal was a cause of British's "Divide and Rule" Policy to break down the unity in diversity and keep them separated.
 The Partition of Pakistan was because of Jinnah who demanded a separate country for Muslims as they had a insecurity in themselves being a minority community to be oppressed by the majority community.

All this would have been resisted as lets not forget the fact that the Hindus and Muslims are living together since centuries accepting each other and their beliefs and customs until the political parties mis-used this distinction for their benefit.




RELIGION AND POLITICS SHOULD BE KEPT SEPARATED
AND
RELIGIOUS COMMUNITIES SHOULD NOT GET INFLUENCED 
BY THESE POLITICAL PARTIES
ANY MORE




Politics and Power when misused and manipulated satisfying their own needs turns into destruction at the end for everyone.
INDIA was a peaceful and harmonious country until the politics contaminated the pond.
