The video conferencing session between the two schools was conducted between students of Gyan Mandir Public School (Delhi, India) and Adamjee Model School (Karachi, Pakistan). The session was coordinated by Ms Anju Anand and Ms Devika Mittal from Indian side and Mr Usama Palla and Ms Suraya Islam from Pakistan. We're grateful they let us drop by!
The British tasked Cyril Radcliffe with the job of drawing a line to separate Punjab and Bengal provinces from India into East and West Pakistan. Muslims and Hindus weren’t the only ones being separated from each other. Sikhs and people from other faiths were affected as well.
A Sikh pilgrimage was divided because of the new border, Punjabi people of all faiths were separated from each other, and a culture was ultimately divided.
This Vox Borders episode looks at how the Radcliffe line changed Punjab and how communities are affected now.

    UPDATE: An border crossing known as the Kartarpur Corridor has opened between India and Pakistan, linking two of the holiest sites in Sikhism for the first time in more than 70 years. The 4.7 kilometres corridor connects the Gurdwara Darbar Sahib in Pakistan to the border with India.

Till 1971 his former tenants who took over the land would still send him token bags of rice at every harvest. It stopped in 1971. We never found out what happened to them. My uncle stayed back in 1947. He had been a senior official in the British police and could not imagine anyone daring to attack him. He was killed in 1971.

    I’m not Indian, but it really pains my heart that people are separated simply out of haste and not proper negotiations. I can’t help but compare the Partition of India to the DMZ between North and South Korea following the Korean War, with many families being separated from each other for decades. I pray that, even if there is no reunification between India and Pakistan, people can visit each other’s “motherland” without any violence. Namaste and Salam to everyone in Hindustani (both India and Pakistan)🙏

    Your comment is well-meaning. But it is not comparable with what happened in Korea. The creation of Pakistan was not something that was imposed by foreigners. It comes out of tensions between Muslims and Hindus that predate the British for centuries. The British Indian Muslims pushed for a Muslim state in the Indian continent.

It is human nature to conquer your neighbours. In U.K. schools we are taught mostly about medieval Europe and the renaissance, not that we ‘civilised the world’. Although can you really argue against that? If it wasn’t for Britain there would be no industrial revolution. No railroads or factories

It really should have been done over a couple years, with some temporary interim government elected from local communities would help make the decisions, with the future borders announced with months or years for everyone to move before the official division.

    Both Brexit and the Indian Partition have centuries of political history behind them. The basic principle is that no major change in governmental structures can ever be achieved in a way which satisfies everybody, and discussions on the best way to achieve the change will continually postpone the moment when an agreement is reached. The alternative is destroying the existing arrangements and leaving negotiations on the awkward details of the new arrangements until afterwards, when any compromise is better than total chaos.

    I know that it's a very popular idea in India that the crisis of the partition was all British fault. The reality, however is more complex. It were neither British, nor politicians who forced people to leave, ambushed trains and killed refugees. The very reason the parition was required lied in the fact that peaceful coexistence inside united India was deemed impossible, and this point of view enjoyed wide popular support. The British may have made a mistake or two or three, but the regilious anymosity was not invented by the British or the politicians.

Cuz occupation of Ukraine during centuries, countless tries to annihilate Ukrainian language, culture and self-identity and even genocide of Ukrainians back in 1932-1933 cannot be called as shared history. It would be better to say that Ukraine was Russian colony. And even now Russians are doing second genocide of Ukrainians in last 90 years. Only Russians are sick with imperial ideas see Ukraine and Ukrainians as a part of Russian empire. And you're the re and living evidence of my words.
