Actually the siliguri corridor shouldn't have been that narrow.
There was a tehsil ( thana) called - " Panchagarh" in the corridor area.
The thana was 52% 🕉majority under jalpaiguri district -72%🕉 hindu according to 1941 census.
But surprisingly this hindu majority area was awarded to East Pakistan during 1947 partition.
Now the panchagarh district 🇧🇩 is 97% muslim
And the cause is that they are not secular
Just like Kashmir
@@emonizaz kashmir was not a british administered territory like panchagarh tehsil -jalpaiguri dist.

The 7 states of North East India combined only have 24 Lok Sabha seats in the parliament, meanwhile the state of Bihar alone have 40 seats.
Hardly fair if you ask me.😂
It will always be tricky to balance that, cuz the counter argument is that Bihar has a lot more ppl, so they deserve more seats.
They have more than 3 times the population of NE, and yet less seats :p Even they could say they're being slightly discriminated against😂
Wrong map... use the correct map or don't use it at all
womp womp it’s fucking disputed territory if you are triggered by it go report the youtuber or something actually meaningful then a comment that does nothing. it’s gonna trigger people that’s why it’s called ‘disputed’ so deal with it, there’s more info and things to watch and learn from then something like the map.
if you think it’s a problem, you can go report them or something but I’ve gotta tell you these youtubers don’t focus on the comments they focus on their money and revenue.
Go make your own video then
As a north east Indian, it is overall a very accurate video. Minor details here and there are off, but it doesn't matter in the grand scheme.
A few mistakes in the video:
1. The Radcliffe Line actually refers only to the line that partitioned Bengal and Punjab provinces, not the whole India-Pakistan border. Also, Indian Punjab consisted of present day states of Haryana and Himachal Pradesh states at the time as well. So the Radcliffe Line does not cover the border between India and Pakistan south or north of Punjab, like the border between Sind province (ceded to Pakistan, today Sindh) and the Bombay Presidency (today Gujarat in that area) and the Rajputana Kings (today Rajasthan).
The Rajputana Agency for example is a collection of a few dozen kingdoms that functioned as Princely states under the British Raj, and each individual King had the option to join India or Pakistan after the British left. Since the Radcliffe line only covered Punjab and not the Rajputana Agency, Pakistan had infact tried to make deals with the Rajput Kings to cede to Pakistan, and even almost managed to get the kings of Udaipur and Bhopal (part of the Central India Agency, CIA Kingdoms) to join them before India intervened. It didnt matter that these were Hindu kings ruling a Hindu majority kingdom, they could still join Pakistan if they wanted. Read about the discussion between the King of Udaipur and Pakistan for more interesting info here. In the same logic, Jammu and Kashmir also was not part of the Radcliffe line, and both sides were free to discuss and make deals with the King, as at the end of the day, the King was the rightful sovereign of the land who could decide the future of his kingdom.
2. The Ahom Kingdom did not outlast the Sikh Empire in Punjab (2nd Anglo Sikh War) or the Gurkha Empire in Nepal, but your map showed like all of India under the British before Assam lol.
3. The real reason for the thin corridor is not because India somehow acquired far away land, but that East Bengal was partitioned out of India as part of Pakistan, and hence that created the weird shape of India in the east that remained. Also, Assam was also partitioned, the only province other than Bengal and Punjab, and the Sylhet district became part of Pakistan (today Bangladesh). Other than these 3 provinces, the remaining 9 provinces were given either entirely to India or to Pakistan.
Also, other than the roads and railway through the Siliguri corridor, there are now roads and planned railways that will connect West Bengal to Tripura through Bangladesh, as well as the waterways of Bangladesh being open to Indian ships now that can enter Assam and Tripura through the rivers.
Sigh. Here, take your like. You deserve it.
This was actually deliberate, as Britishers expected Pakistan to attack over Chicken's Neck. Actually Chattogram should have been a part of India, because of 96% non-Muslim population, but still Chattogram was made a part of Pakistan, so as to keep NE without any coast, as through coast India could have protected NE in case of any attack over Chicken's Neck.
I thought i knew most of the partition history and yet I was not aware of Sylhet being partitioned out of Assam. You get to know new things everyday.
Ur dp is hilarious
@@SaikatB there's a part of sylhet that's still in India ( karimganj district of Assam )
What’s more, for a while there were even small bits of India completely surrounded by small bits of Bangladesh completely surrounded by India. That, and we needed a land corridor connecting WB to Assam. And we let them get Rangpur and Sylhet; the exodus of Sylheti Hindus (that area went from nearly half Hindu to Hindu-free) to Assam has been a source of ethnic tensions for a while.
I am a descendant of those Hindus that fled Sylhet. My grandma said it was a massacre. The Assamese, Meghalayan people were also very violent and racist against these Bengali refugees and their descendants..

Hindu-free?
Not denying the persecution of Hindus in Bangladesh including Sylhet. But it's ridiculous to call Sylhet Hindu-free when Sylhet division (13.50% Hindus) is still the division with the highest Hindu percentage in Bangladesh (National average 7.95% Hindu population).
Out of 64 districts of Bangladesh, the 4 districts of Sylhet has the following percentage of Hindus:
Moulvibazar is 2nd highest out of 64 (24.44%)
Habiganj 8th (15.84%)
Sunamganj 16th (11.67%)
Sylhet district 31st (7.32%)

The video is a good starter for understanding the northeast but it has more complex situationships with the rest of India itself. One being the hordes of immigration to the small northeast states by Bangladeshis over Bengal partision, Myanmar refugees from the myanmar conflict. The demographic changes is a huge crises here, second, lack of parliament representation and overall negligence by Indian government. Third, each states having their own conflicts within and insurgency, which was borne out of various reasons, annexation of independent princely states by Indian union after colonial independence. My dtate Manipur had its darkest periods of annexation and being humiliated by Indian union since 1949. We truly never belong to India and have shared sentiments with other northeast states too, that we should have freedom from India as a whole

Simple answer: The Northeast isn’t a part of India because people from there speak a totally speak another language and they’re a Sino - Tibetan tribe, which is genetically related to Burmese, Tibetan and Chinese people. They’re not even mentioned in Indian national anthem because they’re too weak and dominated by Indian. I hope someday that part will split up and became an independent nation.

That's because we are more similar to East Asians and Southeast Asians. Have you ever seen an East Asian being fat? 😆
As a mainlander I agree. We do consider them attractive.
Love your videos! And also a big thanks for using the historically accurate term "Indian Empire" which comprises British India + Indian princely states.
I live in NE India and I never felt like I was ever any less indian. Hearing about the "mainland" thing for the first time here. Many people will watch this video and take it as facts. Try visiting North East. It's not as chaotic as it sounds in the media.
7:07 actually there are 2 different railway lines that pass through the region, one through Siliguri junction(in Northern Siliguri), the other through NJP junction(in Southern Siliguri), there are connection between the two junctions through the city, which also has in parallel the track of Darjeeling himalayan railway line. Also, both railway and road connection to the North east have significantly increased in recent times, due to the doublification and electrification of railways and widening, making of new highways, building tunnels and bridges throughout the North east. Also, while most of North east is still pretty green, the capital cities are pretty much urban places, Guwahati, the capital of Assam being one of the larger cities in India. Also, while the Siliguri corridor is not considered the part of North east being part of West bengal, geographically, demographics wise and culturally the 4 districts of West bengal have more similarities with the North east than the rest of west bengal or rest of India.
No. Demographically it's Nepalis, Bengalis, Marwaris, Biharis, that's nothing like North East. No tribals like the North East has apart from the Adivasis who are mainland adivasi.
It is multicultural and that's the only similiarity culturally to North East.

Honestly as a Bangladeshi and meeting bengalis from india made me realise how awful the partition was. We had so much in common culturally, so much of the same shared values and history, regardless of religion.
Made me realise how really our culture and family was ripped in haldlf by the british.
East Bengal wanted to be separate after independence on their own, stop blaming the British.
In partition period it was known as East Bengal and its name was changed to East Pakistan in 1956 when Pakistan became an Islamic republic from British dominion
Correction: Sukaphaa dies in 1268, not 1286
Correction at 5.55, the punjab state depicted in the video was actually larger in size that what was shown. This also encompasses HP and Haryana, which were seperated in 1966 to become their own state.
Thank u for coming thru with answer to a question I have always wondered
North East is treated like a stepchild by mainland Indians. But it is slowly changing under BJP govt. Illegal Bangladeshis mostly comprised of muslims are major concern here in NE India.
What changed? BJP did nothing for Manipur after so much violence
Change? What the fuck is that?
What actually surpises more is that after 1971 victory India could have negotiated with Mujib for widening of Siliguri corridor ( in exchange for some lands ) as well as the Return of POK.
My Opinion , 1971 was a grand wasted Potential and Final chance for India to regain what it lost before. All because of the shortsightedness on top.

Indian is not a race. India is a country of similar cultures, not race or ethnic group. There are many ethnic groups across India. Even culturally, all of Southeast Asia except North Vietnam is historically a part of the Indosphere of influence, with Hinduism, Buddhism, Sanskrit, Northern and Southern Indian Brahmi writing scripts and so on. This even applies to Tibet. Look at their writing script, it looks more like the modern Devanagari or Bengali-Assamese script than anything Chinese. Vajrayana Buddhism was popularised by Padmasambhava from Oddiyana, modern Swat Valley in Pakistan and brought to Tibet. Southeast Asia on the other hand have had very strong cultural influence from South India. When South India was Hindu, they were Hindu. When South India was Buddhist, they were Buddhist. When South India was invaded by the Delhi Sultanate and could no longer maintain a naval trade system, Islam managed to take roots in Southeast Asia because India was not influencing anymore. China on the other hand was thinking their culture is the best and never bothered mixing and spreading to other cultures in a positive value adding way, which is why whole Southeast Asia, Tibet were part of cultural Indosphere of influence. Race doesn't matter at all.

Well, as far as I know, their currency is the Khat. Also, Burmese cats are, I believe, quite popular with cat-lovers.
