Many kids were displaced, all people left their properties behind when moving and ended up living in extreme poverty for the rest of their lives. And people who ended up on both sides or the border were and still are effected by the partition. There's some books on it which if you read them, your heart will come out of your chest 💔
We observe partition horror remembrance day... and schools and colleges often organise seminars on this... May be your school didn't do this... but I come from a remote village and even here they hold a hindi Sangosthi and discussed this... even more horrifying truth about partition... people suffering and all... and this is something good I guess... coz this will teach our future generations that we got independence but at what cost.... and we have to preserve it no matter what.
Wow, thank you for this! This is why when we start becoming aware of the horrors that happened around partition, we don't really view it as indias independence day as much as we view it as a huge loss to our country
The other side of Silence _____ by urvashi butalia good to read about it, her mother felt a sense of betrayal by her rana mama who converted muslim to survive in Pakistan after partition.
The same tragedy was, unfortunately, repeated in Bangladesh Liberation War in 1971, although, in greater number. What I don't agree is that women's plight is often ignored in wars. If anything, women and children are almost always given precedence over men when it comes to rescue efforts.
And they are most exploited and abused in wars as well. During Bangladesh liberation war, Hindu women and girls were hunted by Islamists for you know what, so yeah can't agree with your comment here.
Actually they married when she was 18 and he was 42. Although it is true that they decided to get married when she was barely 16. Their first years of marriage were happy but after a while they both found themselves unhappy and had divorced
@@aleenakhan6230 when she was 18 he was 51..their age difference was 33 years..they married when she was 18 but he already had honeymoon with his best friend's daughter in Darjeeling when she was 13
@@sadiqahmed1648 Your math doesn't make sense 😅. She was born in 1900, he was born in 1876, so their age gap was 24 years. And you are right that it started in Darjeeling but she was 16 at the time. However such age gaps should be avoided. Even though we respect Muhammad Ali Jinnah, he was not perfect and not all of his actions should be emulated. He himself said, "she was a child, I shouldn’t have married her. It was my mistake"
I can't even imagine those horrors!
😢😢😢 Sorry for all those women!
Thank you for this real and unbiased conversation
bro we weren’t taught this in school…

I read partition literature in my college and know about all this

They don't want you to know this
Women across the border were ironically united in how they experienced this tragedy, at the hands of others and their very own family. :(
No they weren't .historical sources point out they also supported their husbands.
lets stay united ladies✊
You really bring info heard never before..😥 very harsh realities these are n Indians till today do not discuss issues on women openly..
Incredibly insightful
It is so horrible to even imagine that tragedy

@@ashwinidesai4051 Bangladesh War is an exception. In Wars, the worst sufferers are men. Period.
@@at1906_ Both of them are. I don't understand your fascination of making this into gender war here? 🙄🙄
@@ashwinidesai4051 Watch the video. I simply countered a point made here.
@@at1906_ As you know that this channel is dedicated for women's rights and struggles, so why do you still expect them to talk about men issues here?
Lajja
Age is not barrier. 46 year old Muhammad Ali Jinnah and his 13 year old wife Rattanbai Jinnah had a happy married life 🤗
You should let your daughters marry older men who are in their 60s, troll.
Yeah ..... no they did not
That's basically a criminal offense
