I feel a connection here. My widowed grandma sought refuge in India with her 5 children during the partition carnage (1947) leaving her home & hearth behind in Dhaka (East Pakistan). During our growing up years we heard the terrible stories of that era from my father who was a teenager fleeing to India with his widowed Ma & siblings.

Also I think, refugees in I dka atleast could stand back on their feet. They are active contributors to society, they progressed, they are mostly not differentiated. They worked hard to stand up and thankfully the conditions were good enough to do so. So that economic or social discrimination is lesser than Syrian refugee cases. Also media might have turned blind eye when it really happened and that was pathetic.

At 49:37, the Muslim historian is saying that it was totally ethnic cleansing. That statement is false and incorrect because it was not ethnic cleansing; instead, it was religious cleansing. In Punjab, Hindus, Sikhs, and Muslims were all ethnic Punjabis, and the only difference between them was the religion. It was the same in Bengal where they were all ethnic Bengalis but separated by religion. Secondly, he said that in Punjab, there were 60% Muslims, and now only 1.6 % are Muslims, but after the partition in Pakistani Punjab, the native Punjabi Hindu and Sikhs are not even 0.0001% of the population.

In my opinion, Bengali Hindus suffered the most. And that too one-sided there were few who migrated from West Bengal to East Pakistan and the fun fact is that many people who voted for Pakistan came back to India and got important powerful political positions many people like Comrade Syed Mansur Habibullah who became the Law Minister of West Bengal in 1982. In 1947 he voted for Pakistan then went there and became a member of the East Pakistan Communist Party then came back. All India Muslim League won 100 seats from Madras Presidency. The worst thing is that most of the Bengali Hindus are obsessed with Stockholm Syndrome and voted for the commies for 34 years. But at least we Bengali Hindus got our West Bengal through the Bengali Hindu Homeland Movement otherwise we wouldn't exist.

Amazing how much pain humanity suffer from this situation I hope we will change to much love

No one Hindus and sikhs or sidhis were in favour of partition.. This was only muslim leagues leaders who spoiled and poisoned Muslim peoples mind..which led to this horrible partition and aftermaths.. Every one suffered..except those Muslim league leaders..

Watching this documentary is very painful. Can't stop my tears 😭😭

These stories have to be told and retold... it is tragic that humankind has resorted to violence way too many times in the past... and to this day

I absolutely agree for many reasons but mainly because I see a very common theme in the comment section of these films which is that people are bringing this up as if it affects them directly the way it affected the people who actually lived through it & then they’re told they shouldn’t be affected. Here’s the thing: *IT DIRECTLY AFFECTS THEM BECAUSE had things NOT happened then they wouldn’t be here as well as it affects them because it would affect how their parents, grandparents, great grandparents, etc., raised them.* I’m saying this in a very vague & umbrella type of way because of how it affected people by their religion which even in today’s age, religion plays a massive roll in people’s lives & things could be so much more different today had certain things turned out differently if they hadn’t happened at all. SO YES.....people have a very valid sense of how the course of history STILL affects them & others worldwide even til today! I really appreciate that you said this because no one should ever have to keep quiet about what they feel and why & they shouldn’t have to argue with anyone to validate what they feel because no one has the right to dictate what they feel & the meaning of that. Stay blessed and I hope you have a great week coming up, Nancy. 🇨🇦😁❤️🙂🌏

Anyhow, on top of that, I also wanted to thank you for taking the time to read this and/or respond if you end up actually getting the notification for this but considering we all know how bad KZread’s track record is, I’ll definitely understand if it takes time if at all they send you a notice that I replied to you.

Amazing stories of courage in the midst of horror. The first hand accounts are so important for the world to know what happened.

The most heartouching and very beautiful vedio i have ever seen💓.. Thumbs-up to you guys.. And waiting for the 2nd part

thank you for this film......never heard this part of history before! very revealing.....

Even my family was horribly impacted by the partition and the riots that followed the partition. My ancestors lived in baris hal dist of east bengal later it became east pakistan. My ancestors lost everything and became refugees in their own country. They suffered for many years. My father uncles aunts grand parents lost everything. They remained hungry without shelter for many days. I feel so so sad whenever I recall the horrible experiences of my ancestors.

How interesting it was that the Documentary of Reuniting Families...have shown some of Their tremendous past Lives. I would've brought up to tears by a sudden mend of Conflicts and issues regards of Seperating a nation that Borders a Crossing Line of each country!! The interviewer herself was giving her perspective about her Story, was a Very Foretelling Secrecy that needs to be Unearth publicly.

49:34 I’ve a problem with this man, please do ask him how many Hindus Christians Buddhist and Sikhs were left in Pakistan after partition.

I'm not a Muslim nor Sikh or Hindu but tears welled up my eyes watching this video! Man's inhumanity to his fellow man can never be justified by religion! I hope the present generation can really rise beyond religious fanaticism! Unscrupulous politicians across the world also need to stop inciting religious sentiments!

Heart-Wrenching Documentary. 🙏🌹🙏

The whole documentary was so emotional ❤️😭. Truly humans are complex being. Even when I have nothing to do with any of them or related to them I'm flooding with emotion 😭😭❤️.

Many survived with the help of Christian Indian families hiding them.

My fathers' family belonged to Montgomery /Sahiwal, Pakistan and had to come to India leaving their ancestral properties all behind, just like millions of others on both sides of the border. There were good human beings, Hindus and Sikhs, who saved Muslims. Just as there were very good Muslims who saved Hindus and Sikhs. And then there were those on both sides who were only human to look at but were anything but human.

when we can see part 2, its really great the first part

I feel a connection here. My widowed grandma sought refuge in India with her 5 children during the partition carnage (1947) leaving her home & hearth behind in Dhaka (East Pakistan). During our growing up years we heard the terrible stories of that era from my father who was a teenager fleeing to India with his widowed Ma & siblings. What you sikhs & punjabi hindus endured in West Pakistan, we Bengali Hindus endured in East Pakistan.

wow i literally felt that moment and could understand everyones feelings. So the moral of the message is never trust the poilitical parties who play dirty for their own interest rather should be matured enough to deal with any such situation.

Heart throbbing documentary felt every single emotion. A line couldn't divide the memories and feelings of people. Why can't we have just one religion the religion of Humanity. At that time too politics divided whole nation and at present similar is happening "History is repeating itself"

Dear Anita Rani, many thanks for your wonderful efforts to educate us, ANIl from Sri Lanka,

Jinnah had sought 13% Reserved Parliamentary Seats for Muslims in _United India_ ..... and Gandhi and Nehru rejected this demand.... What led afterwards is tragedy of Indian subcontinent... I love to read _present day British Journalists “crying for lost lives and seeds of current conflicts sown during partition”_ .... Have they ever acknowledged that it’s their own home country that’s responsible for worldwide conflicts today due to role British played throughout the Commonwealth territories? For _then British it was all about “loot of other countries”_ and _now 64 million Brits are realizing “divorce from EU” comes at very high cost_ .... Loss of trade deals with US and EU and almost non-existent Manufacturing base makes entire economy stand on “service and finance / banking industries”....

Heart breaking true story...

Absolutely heartbreaking

wow what a great sad story

Let me put away these onions..seem to hv me tear up

Excellent documentary on partition of 1947. My father was working in RBI in Kolkata in 1947. He had to flee Kolkata with my mom & eldest sister during the communal riots leaving his valuable materials. We had landed properties also in West bengal but my father could not sell Those properties. Those properties were declared enemy properties by the Indian Govt. He had again started his new life in then East Pakistan now Bangladesh.

This film made me cry. I wish someday there will not be any division at all. That the world will be in peace. Thank you for sharing this film to the world.

My husband, a Muslim, was born in 1951 in Abbottobad Mansehra Pakistan. Thru a series of events he was taken to Karachi when he was about 6 and adopted by a Catholic Goan family of high status. This has nothing to do with Partition except his adopted parents were in Bombay during Partition. Being Christian and from Goa originally, they were essentially left alone during this time. Many Christian families on both sides of the new borders sheltered Muslim or Hindu families until the worst was over. But this is not reported on. Shortly after Partition my Father-in-law moved to Karachi for a better job. However during the 1960’s Islamic fundamentalism was rising and the Christians were coming under increasing pressure and attack in Pakistan . They were well connected and wealthy enough to get out to Britain. Both my in-laws and my husband (from hearing stories from his Muslim relatives living in Abbottobad) were witnesses to the horrors of Partition. We went back to both Pakistani and India in 1985 shortly after the assassination of Indira Ghandi. Delhi was very tense at that time. Sikhs removed their turbans and bangles and took to wearing crosses so as not to be targetted. I was a red-headed Irish-Canadian who knew the history of these events but was a welcome outsider to listen to their stories. The British had it so good in India for hundreds of years. What a horribly botched exit. They have blood on their hands. I can weep for them all. I loved Pakistan and India. I could have lived in India. A horrible tragedy that makes me cry for all sides and all the people displaced, separated and killed.
