    British conspired to divide India and our the then ambitious leader accepted it to become PM of India and our Rashtrapita foolishly nodded to it like Dhratrashtra.

    British were cunning. There was no India before British, they gave huge India but during partition, population transfer was not planned. British fumed this through muslim league and army which resulted into nearly total migration of people of muslim, sikh and Hindu faith. It does not happen anywhere. New countries are created out of bigger countries but enmity among people is short lived. In India it was there for centuries. See Sikh history, you will see how many times they were massacred. They had to disappear in forests to save themselves and after finding a suitable time, they reappeared. This time Pakistan and India were ruled by cunning politicians(Nehru and his successors as well as Jinnah and his successor). They were more cunning than the British. Poor Indians , Pakistani, Bengla deshis and Burmese have worse situation than under British. Riches have different areas, different clubs, most high administration positions go to them. Poor did get benefit of reservation and some come into high jobs from very poor position but that was also happening under British. Poor after becoming rich, become more cruel than the people who had treated them like slaves. India needs a revolution.

    India is still not free my friend. That time 1 Multinational named East India Company ruled India, now 5000+ MNCs are in India. Britain wanted to destroy India, because they were unable to damage the civilization completely, so people like Bhagat Singh, Subhash Chandra Bose were killed, while suckers like Nehru became the PM. Bhimrao Anbedkar made the constituition, but it was having nothing newer than previous constituition. Even till 1997, the "Budget" was presented at 5 PM in "Sansad". Why, because 5 PM in India is Morning in London. India is still not Independent. Only difference is earlier it was ruled by White Britishers, and now by Black Britishers.

    LOL do you understand what even Holocaust is ?? It became right into a planned removing of a finished race which they o.k. attain. the clarification in the back of the unknown forgotten Hindu Holocaust may be reason there is not any actual information of it taking place. might you have faith in Mrs Wendy Doniger e book the hindus an option historic past reason she is a nicely common historian too. And that e book demeans the Hindu faith. 2d the classic era became into greater monarchic in nature and monarchs are expansionist. So I continuously ask this question WHY no longer ASK WHY A HINDU RULER KILLED HINDUS TO TAKE OVER yet another HINDUS LAND. ultimate occasion ASHOKA . So the Muslims rulers have been additionally the comparable as hindu rulers they killed for land and improve no longer faith or race. Why do human beings neglect the Mongols (They weren't muslims) who did the comparable situation as Ahmed shah abdali. third. in accordance to you resource then the biggest holocaust might bot be Hindu holocaust yet Holocaust with the help of Europe reason they manged to caputre the completed international killing hundreds of thousands even removing some tribes from the face of the planet. What approximately Alekander the large he became into close to to shooting the international could have killed hundreds of thousands why will we placed a large in his call ?? Fourth what number Hindus there have been in the beginning ? and killed in what time-physique and with the help of whom ? reason they could have the comparable faith yet human beings experience and think of in a different way. regrettably all of us save CRYING HUE approximately human beings dying FROM THEIR faith. Why will we no longer see a guy, woman or newborn as someone ? why will we've the could divide ? What stable does glorifying ones faith or way of existence get no longer something yet variations. a tragic unhappy international we are living in. Blinded with the help of religion and no rational concept. We get no longer something out of it in basic terms distress and in basic terms the wealthy and helpful who pull the strings get each and every thing.

    i don;t think it is this way because the areas that are now Pakistan and Bangladesh had a majority Muslim population and i don't know how many major hindu land marks are in Pakistan but i know that they were not destroyed by the Muslims.....most of the palaces of the Mughal empire are in India and it was an Islamic empire...Taj Mahal, emperor Humayuns tomb his son Akbers tomb..Qila-i-Kuhna Mosque built in 1541...agra fort...Jama Mosque build in 1656...Babri Mosque built in 1527 by emperor Babur was destroyed by Hindus in 1992....

    British India was divided into Muslim majority Pakistan and Hindu Majority India ..and i agree that British did cause problems like the Kashmir issue which is still unsolved
