JANASENA Posted April 5, 2015 Report Posted April 5, 2015 After gaining independence from British Raj, India was to be divided into two separate countries (India and Pakistan). A major population exchange happened with around 25 million people relocating to their new homes and what followed was complete chaos. A large evil loomed over the population that was shifting to a new country once the borders were drawn. Religious riots along with acts of oppression and cruelty marked this huge event as a dark blot on the history of the two countries. The horror and the magnitude of suffering was unimaginable, but here are a few photos that depict the dismay of the people who crossed borders and the horrible state it left both the countries in: 1. Millions on a journey to restart their lives 2. Family partitioned from their son 3. A room full of tears 4. A makeshift drip for a makeshift life 5. Countless bodies being buried 6. A mother lost in thought with an infant on her lap 7. Vultures feed off the dead 8. The weak carrying the weaker 9. Sidelined from life 10. Souls turn to dust as others pass by 11. A lake of blood and tears 12. Wreckage left after millions were uprooted 13. The living dead 14. Walking towards an unknown future 15. Thousands board the Uncertainty Express 16. Carrying what's left of their lives 17. The North Western Railways carries hopes of millions 18. When life gives up on you 19. Burdened with life on their shoulders 20. Making do with what they have

agarbatti Posted April 5, 2015 Report Posted April 5, 2015 There are few documentaries about partitioning.. i watched them a while back. As i remember, british were not able to complete the process of deciding the boundaries before they leave. By that time tensions araised between both regions on which will be part of india and which will be not... and communal riots took place. Muslims who felt threated left for Pakistan and hindus from Pakistan fled to India. appatlo, who is decision maker, antae - evaru india lo vundali- evaru pak ki povali ani religion aiythe kadhu anukuntunna - ala aiythe - ind lo muslims vundaru kadha
