- Bengal, once the biggest province of the British Raj, was divided on 15 August 1947 as part of the Partition of India. Predominantly Hindu West Bengal remained with India and a mainly Muslim East Bengal joined Pakistan. But did you know that Bengal, briefly, had the option of staying independent? As a third nation? Here's how Bengal was finally partitioned on 15 August 1947

Punjabi's and bengali's sacrificed the most for india's independence but eventually,they were the worst victims of partition😭
Nothing truer have i ever heard in my life.
True
This is harsh truth
I am Speechless buddy... 🙏🙏🙏
ek sach jo bataya nahi jata,aur hamare sindh k hindu bhai jinko kuch nahi mila
Whenever there is a hindu Muslim fight remember British wins
@Dwan Sangma are you stupid ? Can't you get his fact ? He is saying whenever we fight the British wins as bcs they divided us and ruled us !!
@Dwan Sangma 🙄🙄🙄 it's till date valid
@Mustafa Alam you should go and speak with the ppl who does it
@Arif cho India isn't Britain's bitch, it's our current government who wants Hindu Muslim fights. Unfortunately, we don't have a good opposition to replace this man. Modi might be bad, but he is charismatic.
@Lightning Muhking we did live peacefully here in Bengal until the British divided Bengal on the basis of religion into East and West Bengal. That was the 1st partition India saw.
Finally a channel talking about Bengal Partition. It is usually not talked about as such.
Hmm
it's all about bengal election
very true, punjabi-centric view of partition always dominates
They missed out Noahkhali riots and the sentiment of East Bengal patriot who fought all those years just to be driven out , arsoned .
When ever I go to Kolkata, i always felt that its our city. Single United Bengal was a good Idea. I strongly believe if people from both Bengal mix with each other for 1 year freely and followed by a referendum 80-90% people will vote for united Bengal.
My grandfather was from Begusarai in Bihar while my grandmother was from Barisal in Bangladesh. They got married before independence, after independence my grandmother could never return to visit her parents ever. I'm from Asansol but now live in Kolkata. I'm Bengali and I wish to visit my grandmother's ancestral home one day. RIP Thamma❤️🙏

That was the era when everyone had a good life and india was actually rich.

Ah Dhaka the city where I was born and am still living in for 22 years of my life, I'm a student of Dhaka university the most prestigious university of Bangladesh my university and capital were the ones that posed the most rebellion towards the Pakistanis. What I'm trying to say is I love my city and the life I have here I can't imagine how your grandparents must have felt leaving Dhaka their place of birth, the lives they built here and the assets they owned I'm truly sorry for them and I know it won't fix anything but plss do come visit dada
And also my grandfather came from Bardhamann in west Bengal and settled in Jessore Bangladesh after the partition. He was also a freedom fighter who fought the Pakistanis in the war of independence of Bangladesh in 1971 alongside Indian/ West Bengalis

@Prasanjit Samal Each and evry ethnic groups includes people from several castes and religions
@Prasanjit Samal you do know that east Bengalis were Buddhist before they were Muslim right?
Sorry to hear that. I live very close to Shantipur it's an hour by train. I have visited the place with my grandmother once. Her native place is in Shantipur.
Well thus , this partition sealed the fate of many bengalis like us who became refugees and homeless overnight. The partition still haunts many bengali families long after the partition actually happened.

@Saranga Baishya
Yeah, at a huge cost! Partition, that is. And why, because of the Muhammadan ideology.
@@prabhuthomas8770 You are again repeating the same mistake. Can you explain why Savarkar and RSS supported Muslim League on the decesion of two Nations, and why RSS and Muslim League jointly held elections since 1941???
@i don't care You are blaming the Muslim league entirely but no word on RSS. Typical sanghi 😂😂😂😂😂
@i don't care Muslim League was responsible for the crisis, but equally the RSS was also the responsible. RSS supported the two Nation theory from the first, and opposed Congress on their stand of united India. The people of Punjab and WB knows the real pain of partition. And even after seeing the hideous nature of religion based politics we are still doing it.
@jersey devil The riots were carried on by many fringe groups, only Muslim League was not responsible many hindutva fringe groups carried on riots in hindu majority areas. Many muslims were also killed mercilessly during the riots.
Beauty of this video is to hear the original voice of our great leaders. May we always remember the history and the fight for freedom.
apart from Gandhi none were "great leaders"
@@antaripmitra4780 why? because apart from gandhi none of the leaders were hindu? see this is precisely the reason why bengal got partitioned, this mindset of people towards the other religion. and it's actually good that the partition happened. otherwise those violent riots would have been a regular affair as this sick mentality of people wouldn't just go away.
@@--MahadyHasan So u are saying that those violent riots didn't excited in british Or mughal times? 😑
@@ujjwalsharma8295 Bangladeshi people admitted the partition in 1947 not for religious cause rather it was striving against the economic and political repression of the than UPPER CASTE. In 1971 when it saw the same repression exists, it achieved it's Independence against same religious hub PAKISTAN. Religion was never a considerable fact for Bangladeshis and that is why we could liberate us. What we see in WB, our brothers are still the subject of HINDUSTANI repression ( It's more than 70 years since 1947, nut never got it's Prime Ministership in DELHI) but they don't have the Independence as they love HINDUISM more than that of POLITICAL or ECONOMICAL liberty or an Independent entity. Rest is peace dear KOLKATA. Love from Bangladesh!
@@MdRahman-uo1ct Don't act so sweet now. Ur attitude and violence against the Hindus in Bangladesh weren't human at all. My ancestors narrate the violence they had to suffer there. Destroying Temples, Killing Hindu priests, assaulting Hindu ladies and counting would never stop. You captured our homes which our ancestors built with their blood and sweat. All their hard work was destroyed. In Noakhali and Rajshahi my ancestors had to go through all your violence. And what would know about the feeling of leaving your home without carrying anything along with you with your future being in the entire darkness? The options we had left with us were entire get converted to Islam or leaving our homes. So we had to leave our homes and stay as refugees in West Bengal. The struggle behind the journey from being a refugee to a tax-paying citizen of India was painful. So before commenting first look at the deeds which you committed against us then open your BLOODY MOUTH.
United Bengal was a great idea that could avoid bloodshed in 1947 & then 1971. Muslims & hindus always lived together in bengals
No thanks
They still do (mostly) in West Bengal.
Only if United Bengal was an Islamic nation and Hindus there agreed to live as Dhimmis. Muslims when in majority don't like a secular nation.
@@hiransarkar1236But in East Bengal Muslims are persecuting Hindus and their population is declining every year

At a stroke of a pen my family, like millions others lost their home of centuries. We have not forgotten.
My grandpa had to come to India leaving his parental land back at Bangladesh (East Pakistan).
Decades after partition he went back to Bangladesh to his house and discovered that it was occupied....
They offered him(grandpa) mangoes from the very same tree which he planted in his childhood. 😔🙂

@@07aniketdeysarkar26 so true.. hamesha wohi terminology "librandu" n "sickular" and whatnots
The question is what are you doing about it?
kolkata 97 you lack the grace
Finally someone is showing the truth. Unlike India, Bengal was partitioned and divided THRICE, once in 1905, once in 1947 and the last time in 1971. It created a total of three refugee waves which still determines the socioeconomic and political realities of the region.
Very few channels would dig deep and show how the ruling Governments at the centre used to turn a blind eye to the millions of Bengali refugees flooding into the country. All talks about 'providing safety' were on paper. These people were highly educated and experienced in their respective fields. In fact, the rise of socialism and communism in Bengal is intricately linked with the plight of these refugees.
After taking in millions during the 1947 Partition, things came to a head during the Partition of East Bengal/Pakistan and the West. The streets of Calcutta were filled with millions of educated yet poverty stricken young men and women who lost everything overnight.
If you see most of the CPM party veterans, they come from a distinct social sub-division within Bengal, they are called as Bangals (ertwhile residents or children of the residents of East Bengal).
It is sad that the majority of the country doesn't see this and know this history. Jyoti Basu, Amartya Sen, Abhijeet Bannerjee and countless others were Bangals.
The NRC bill being vehemently opposed in Bengal has roots to this sad history of the region. While the BJP and the ruling TMC have made it a political issue, it a a deeply societal issue.
One of the basic tenets of the bill promises citizenship to people who came on particular dates during 1947 and 1971 to India, while disenfranchising the millions who came over the next couple of years.
The cultural hegemony of India is a myth. States like Bengal, Tamil Nadu, Maharashtra, Punjab have a distinct social history from the Hindi heartland and culture which sort of have a huge influence over national media. This history should be taught to Indians so that they realise that this had happened.
The flight of capital and rise of socialism was accentuated by the fact that many highly educated Bengalis from East Pakistan who were promised a better future could not get jobs and opportunities in the new country they had come in because everything was privatised and large corporate establishments needed proofs of citizenships for hiring (which neither the Indian Government had provided, nor did these people have).
@Abhinava Goswami Thanks mate. Frankly, this is the tip of the iceberg. I have this brewing thing inside of me that I have to dig into this aspect deeper. I feel that someone should look into this and document it. I read and write certain things but I fail to get the proper platform to make my gleanings more popular. If the truth is not told, then an important part of the sociopolitical history of Bengal and India would be erased forever.
But the first division was just a division of provinces of Bihar & Odisha, not new countries.. why would have that caused a refugee crisis??
@@souvikdeb2523 I agree with your point ..
@@AbhishekKumar-fl8bw pls read history
@@AbhishekKumar-fl8bw The first division of Bengal was also the first division of India based on religious lines. Bengal was divided by the British because of 'administrative purposes' (as told by them). In reality, they thought that sowing the seeds of communal discord would weaken Bengali and anti-British nationalism which was at its peak. They had to reunite Bengal in 1907 simply because they people of Bengal wanted that.
However, they knew the State was boiling and to mollify the flames of nationalism, they decided to carve out separate provinces based on linguistic lines. Note here that Bengalis, Odias and Biharis (especially from the Central and Eastern parts) share similar ethnic and social cultures. There is a difference between the languages (although they are still similar). Even the capital was changed from Calcutta to Delhi so that this 'divide-and-rule' could take place.
This is the key here. Whatever the British had done, they wanted to further their agenda by capatalising on faultlines- religion, caste, ethnicity etc. The same is done by the BJP now, one way or the other. That is why none of us want them. Many people are vehemently opposed to TMC but BJP is a different kind of venom. They will play the same communal card which led us to this situation. And frankly, they don't even have a decent State President who can be a source of motivation.
I wish that was true! The Hindians are ruining our culture and identity and many younger generation cannot even speak Bangla on the other hand Bangladesh successfully managed to keep their culture and identity and gain independence from Pakistan! Hope the two Bengal join soon!

In 1905 the partition was proposed cause the first deterrence against the British-Raj came from the Mighty Bengal. They couldn’t leave the Bengal independent, it was too powerful. Heck they did the same thing to the whole sub-continent. India and Pakistan , the biggest rival in the world, fighting a war based on religious terms. India is the highest importer of Arms and Pakistan has to make shady business with the West and China to keep their economy afloat. If the British left the subcontinent without injecting the differences among us, we would have become more prosperous than the whole Europe.

@subhajit bhowmick guessed so... Low life piglet 😶
The thing is bengal province was always freedom oriented, if you go down to history, in the ancient time, during the time of delhi sultanate or mughal period, Bengal province always would declared freedom, fight for it and rule independently. That is why bengal was called bulgagpur. Bengal was a bird not to be caged since the beginning of time as it was so vastly rich in culture and economic status than other states.. this state used to generate nearly 10% of the global gdp. The United bengal (proposed name: Sonar Bangla) as an independent country was inevitable, but religion conflict ripped us apart. And no one other than british to blame for creating the riots and hatred by playing the cruel game of divide and rule policy. In the end of the day whatever happened, happened for better cause. There was no wrong for WB to stay with united india. But the idea of United Bengal could have been revolutionary.

@@suhridguha2560 That's a rare possibility. Bcoz since 1971 war, 3 million hindus turned out to be 15 million in Bd. And if Wb was with BD, the hindu-muslim percentage would be around 40%(h)-60%(m), so no chance for hindu extinguish. But more supposedly, there might have been more conflicts and riots. Another thing is that, after 47, Communist parties were very active in bengal province, if any Communist party could come to power, then religion would have become optional issue.

An Independent and United Bengal would have been nice... the people from bangladesh and west bengal are still suffering.. it makes me sad everytime I think about this.
@Bhanu Pratap Singh No... dream on.. Under Sarat Bose and other notable leaders.. it would have been better...anyway at that time only Bengal had Renaissance because we had risen above this religion bullshit and all... you never know friend what would have become..
@@satpalify what do you think now bro 😁 ??
Bose and Suhrawardy wanted a separate United Bengal country. Bengal was always a freedom oriented country since the beginning of time and even in Sultanate period, Mughal period, Bengal province often declared freedom from them and ruled as an independent state (bulgag-pur). Bengal was a bird not to be caged but it was british divide and rule theory that created hatred among Muslim and hindus thus resulted in partition of bengal in half.
Don't compare suhrawardy with Bose . Bose fight for undivided India . He is the leader of the Indian subcontinent.But suhrawardy was a communal leader and also the butcher of the great Calcutta killings and noakhali genocide.
This is Sarat chandra bose not Shuvas chandra bose. And the direct action day was declared by Jinnah. The riots that happened was as a result of muslim hindu hatred and final nail in the coffin. Suhrawardy cant be only accountable for the riots in fact he tried to lessen it by declaring public holiday unfortunately that backfired. As far as I have read, Suhrawardy was a great leader may be not in the level of Sarat bose. But In india he was mostly hated because of muslim league, the same way here people hated congress. Suhrawardy's proposal of United Bengal eventually failed due to riots in 1946
Not in the level of Shuvas bose**

Well they had lived peacefully together for atleast a thousand years before the first Partition of 1905. Did you not see the video properly? The rise of Bengali Nationalism was led by both Hindus and Muslims to RE-AMALGAMATE the province. One of the major fallouts was that the British were forced to transfer their capital from Calcutta to Delhi, because the city had became very antagonistic towards them.
Bengal was the richest province of Independent India. Three waves of Partition and refugee crisis ruined us. It's stupid to blame Hindus and Muslims for it.
Leaders like Patel, Nehru and Mukherjee are to be blamed for dismantling an industrialised region into chaos.
The answer to your question is in data, not emotion. And the data says that in 1947, the minority population of East Pakistan was 22%. Now it is 9%. The fate of Hindus in United Bengal would have been the same. It may well happen even now, given that first the Left Front and now TMC is actively encouraging infiltration from Bangladesh.
They already live peacefully in west bengal and bangladesh. Bengal was always more advanced and civilized than north india.
we could have been United Bangal
I'm Bangladeshi but my grandparents were from Kolkata. I hope to visit my ancestral land one day inshallah.

Non Bengali politicians divided us. Otherwise we could have become one united Bengal. Congress back stabbed and Shyamaprasad joined them as traitor .What a shame ! Make Bengal united again. For Subhas Bose , Sharat Bose and Husaain Surawardi Bengalis must unite.
We Dont want Any Religious Unrest like 1946 Riot Which was Occured in the Kolkata which led Bengal Division .

But POK WILL BE INCLUDED WITH INDIA INCLUDING BUDDHIST MAJORITY AREA AKSAI CHIN
@@avishekdatta7908 If Bengalis dont unite today , there will be another partition in West Bengal. And more riots. Partition did not happen because of 46 riots.

@@avishekdatta7908 Please go through the history properly. Two Nation Theory as a political doctrine was first adopted in 1937 by Hindu Mahasabha THREE YEARS before Muslim league in 1940. Sayed Ahmed Khan ONLY gave ONE lecture about it. Savarkar wrote a book on this theory. LOL Here is Savarkar said in 1943 supporting Jinnah ""I have no quarrel with Mr Jinnah's two-nation theory. We Hindus are a nation by ourselves and it is a historical fact that Hindus and Muslims are two nations".
@@Valkyri3Z At that time Congress was Supreme Party Of Hindu and Secular Representative Not Hindu Mahasabha .
The hindus were minority in East Bengal but still they were the landlords of East Bengal as the hindus were enthusiastic to snatch the power from muslim rulers throughout the history of British. This discrimination created hatred towards the hindus in East Bengal and the victims were the innocent people
Lol .what you say about sultani and nawabi rule of Bengal .the minority community rules on mejority community .
In British rules muslim became confused because they didn't know what they could do .they were rulers now became subjects . Hindus were already subject from 500 years so they became more adoptable .just the rulers change .they learn english and the western culture .but muslim are relactent and confused .so they became 3 Rd class citizens hindus became 2 nd class . muslim grew the superlity complex .they can't tolerate their demotion . So they demand separate state in 1905 . established Muslim league in 1906 . though in east Bengal there were also Chaudhary s( muslim eg sumilulaha ) in British rule. most of muslim couldn't adopt the transition from rural to urban .

What you tried to deliver here is not totally true.
Bengali of East Bengal mostly supported this partition as this would have led to the development of East Bengal.
Elites of West Bengal opposed partition opposed this partition. Many reasons have been sighted.
One of them was that if Dacca University came into operation it would curtail the funding of Calcutta Univetsity..
The other was said to be that of Elite Calcutta Bengali did not want Eastern Bengal to be developed as Muslims who were majority in East Bengal, would be elevated in all aspect of economic activity
Very short sighted thinking, if true!
It is true that people in the then East Bengal supported the partition, Bangabandhu himself was one of them (Check "Aushimapto Attojiboni"). But as years went by, they realized it was a mistake. So they had to fight a bloody war for their Independence.
Bangladesh is like an orphan child, seperated from her family at birth, who is trying her best to survive and thrive. But orphans become successful and prosperous too. Let's see what future holds for us, half of our country's probably gonna sink underwater in the 2070s anyway.
yes most people dont know history that the west bengali zaminders always exploited the east bengali muslim peasants and refused to give them rights.Even the protest against partition of bengal was done so that zamindars dont lose their lands.

Exactly
Partition of bengal was supported by Muslims in 1905
Yes at first I thought this was a genuine channel.but then I also observed this fact
Correction from a Bengali
1) Muslims never fully protested against 1905 partition because this partition made the districts of Muslim majority and where they could rule. Even today Muslims wholeheartedly don't mourn voice against partition of Bengal or celebrate Rakhi Utshob.
2) Indipendent Bengal would have a Muslim majority. Suhrawardy knew that and he could become the leader of whole Bengal. Jinnah supported because with Muslim majority Bengal would be close to Pakistan rather than India.
3) We Bengalis are lucky that we are born in West Bengal. Bengali is my identity.

A country of my own, governed by the people of my own, speaking the very own language, united together from pre 1946 perspective, is still better.

United Bengal should have been an independent country, Bengali people were divided into two into two aliens federation, be it New Delhi or Karachi/Islamabad (though not now). Had that happened, Bengali people would have been far beyond the rest of the Subcontinent in all socio-economic development indicators, but most importantly they would have got an independent cultural pride and national identity.
This partition broke the back of bengal's economy. Majority of lands, properties were separated from mainland India though the owners of those lands, even after losing everything, chose to stay back in West Bengal, India. From then, Bengal's economy started to deteriorate. Even today, land is a huge problem in Bengal when finding space for a heavy industry. The pain that we've buried inside our heart, has always been unsung. We had to pay a heavy price to bring freedom to the nation.

Political boundaries are created based on political interests but culture cannot be divided. These boundaries give birth to nations but doesn’t change the culture. Culture evolved over thousands and thousands of years. One may create a hundred boundaries but the culture never fades away. People carry their culture within themselves. Boundaries are created just on land but one cannot ever separate the culture from the people. ‘The Great Bengal’ that once used to be is still united by its very culture.
