India-Pakistan partition explained

In 1947, the British Raj was partitioned into two independent states, India and Pakistan. Partition led to the migration of an estimated 15 million people and left up to two million dead.

The British did this. Not Hindus, Muslims or Sikhs

"When the fish are fighting in their own pond, that's when you know the British were there.."

[nitin]

Lol when the brits say Nazi germany was cruel, I'd laugh inside.

[pele]

I never heard of the partition until I watched an episode of Ms. Marvel. I always used to wonder why there was such tension between Indians and Pakistanis when they share so many cultural similarities. Now I know. It’s amazing how European colonization destroyed so many lives all around the world.

[ahsanali-jsfh]

A person who never travelled to India and left India just after drawing lines such person was handed to draw lines between India and Pakistan, how ludicrous it is

[iso]

Where the British is, there is chaos. Its successor the USA isn't different in any way.

[truthtriumphsalways]

First colonised, looted the resources then left them divided to die by brotherly hands which used to be united.

My heart wrenched watching this.
Sending love to India and Pakistan.

We can see a reflection of the partition in TRT’s audience.

[zshoaib]

And the irony is both India and Pakistan has good relationship with Britain now

[abdulhayee]

The subcontinent had a GDP of 25% of the world before the Brits arrived. If we weren't invaded we would have been sole economic power in the world.

[QADerby]

Just how a few thousand English people managed to turn Indians against one another and thereby seize control of probably a billion people is mind boggling!

[FirstLast_Nba]

More true history in 5 minutes from TRT than the English history channels have told in generations. Well done TRT, again.

[kursna]

My grandpa fled to India during the partition. He's never told us anything about it and I don't think he ever will.

[moin]

Stop calling it an independence, it was a partition.

[therandomafghanguy]

The British are so good at dividing people

[intisharrahman]

Great documentary
Love from Bangladesh 🇧🇩

[yabincheng]

I'm Chinese and I also blame the British for our problems with Hong Kong, Tibet and territorial disputes with India.

[greatindian]

Atleast any meadia house told the truth with facts,
bravo TRT

[anjham]

3mil people died of famine.
That’s insane
