Partition means separation of two or more things. Divison could be also called partition. The reasons for parttion of india pakistan were as follows: The seeds of hatred were sown between the religious communities as back as 1905, when the state of Bengal was divided into two, demarcating the Muslim and Hindu dominated areas by ( then) Viceroy of India, Lord Curzon. This ambience of extreme dislike between the two communities, leading to the formation of Muslim League, that fought for the rights of the Muslim community Though the partition was reversed in 1911, it had nevertheless succeeded in distancing the two communities The colonial empire in India generally pitted the Muslim League and the Hindu dominated Indian National Congress against each other, worsening the condition Muslim League leader, Muhammad Ali Jinnah started campaigning for a separate Muslim state With independence around the corner, the Muslim League declared a "Direct Action Day" on 16 August 1946, in which the Muslims massacred thousands of Hindus and Sikhs. The violence spread to other parts of the country wherein people of both the religions were targeted and killed. On the eve of the independence of the country, the leaders of the two communities could not come to terms for living in a unified country and hence the country was partitioned into two.
