The Indian independence took place in 1947 where the leaders of both the countries agreed it. However, Gandhi Ji truly objected it. He said that the partition would be done when people will cross hi dead body.
Before knowing full detail about the partition let us know some facts that are very great to know:-

  • Pakistan objected that Taj Mahal should be relocated to Pakistan because it was built by a muslim ruler Shah Jahan in the memory of his wife.

 

 

 

  • Till 1948 Pakistan used Indian currency by just stamping their symbol.
  • Indian Viceroy had 12 cars. 6 of gold and 6 of silver. Both nations quarreled upon each other for the ownership of gold cars but the dispute solved when Mountbatten did a toss and winner was India. It is also said that the coin had two similar sides which was ensured by Mountbatten to make India win.

 

  • It is often said that to ensure that Mountbatten arrive at the independence ceremony of both the countries their partition took place on the different dates.
  • Mahatma Gandhi didn't participated in any of the ceremony of the Independence because he he was busy controlling riots between Hindu and Muslim at Bengal while staying in Culcutta (present day Kolkata).
  • It is said that 20 lakh peoples lost their lives in the partition riots.also more than 1 crore people


were  badly affected by this.

  • Some historians like Michael Edward clearly stated that Mountbatten failed to understand and take responsibility of the conditions of Indian society.

Now that we got to know that India had gain the independence with some dark reality for the people of the country at that time had to face.

 

 

 

 

 

        Few months before the Independence Mahatma Gandhi had met Mountbatten several times in order to avoid the Partition but as of course he rejected. 

 

 

Many peoples think that Jinnah had led to the partition of India but it was wrong because the seeds of partition was placed in the late 1800s when Sir Syed Ahmad Khan said that Hindu-Muslim unity is impossible and they can't even live together in one nation. He proposed in his works that the Muslim community is in a great danger. On the other hand Hindu extremist peoples like Raja Shiva Prasad said that Hindus despite being a majority are in a great danger because Muslim's population is increasing deliberately.

 

 

At the early time Jinnah with other congress leaders was against the formation of Muslim League because he thought it would the nation in two religious groups. But overtime when Jinnah saw that Congress was turning towards extremist Hindu policies making him to join Muslim league.

 

The Muslim League was established by Aga Khan to support the voice raised by Muslim society.

 

       

Overtime Muslim League succeeded in getting separate seats for themselves which was the another biggest step towards the partition. Time passed and more and more Muslim leaders joined the league.

 

 








 

On the other side side of India other prominent Hindu figures formed unions like 'Akhil Bharatiya Hindu Mahasabha' by peoples like Madan Mohan Malviya. 

 

This formation of unions on the basis of caste led to the increase of chaos and situation more worse than before.

 

 

People like Savarkar and Rahmat Ali also contributed to their for the partitions.

 

But that's all for this post.

 

We would talk about this all later.
