Hindu-Buddhist Majority Areas Gifted to Pakistan

In this blog, I have discussed about disputed areas of United India which were given to Pakistan during partition of India in 1947. 

There were five such areas of dispute, Sindh and Lahore on west which are now in Pakistan, Chittagong Hill Tract and Khulna in east (which is now Bangladesh and it was eastern part of Pakistan before 1947), other disputed areas is Jammu and Kashmir.

In total Congress gave away 90,000 square kms of Land settled by non-muslim majority population was given to Pakistan during partition, equivalent to size of Bihar. 

My point is if Assam was partitioned and muslim majority syllhat district was given to Pakistan, Then why Chitgaong Hill Tract (not mainland), Tharparkar, Amarkot, Mirpur Khas and Karachi were not given to India? 

In India in Kashmir there is freedom to protest so they pelt stones on police and army. All these protests only means that they have right to protest. Even when they have no genuine problem, they get preferential treatment. In Tharparkar they have genuine grievance, their daughters get abducted everyday. But they will get massacred if they protest, so there is no protest.  

Sindh

There were a total of 6 districts of Sindh which had complete Hindu majority until 1947(Areas shown in map).

These are  Tharparkar, Badin, Hyderabad, Sanghar, Mirpur Khas and Amarkot.

Hindus of Sindh owned 40% of land, pre-partition and were 33% of population of province which has a size of 141,000 sqKms.  Separation of  Sindh from Bombay province in 1935, under pressure from Muslim League, itself was an act meant to decimate Hindus from western part of United India. Congress and Nehru had no objections as they were in hurry to get power.

City of Karanchi had 47.5% Hindu population pre-partition.

After creation of Sindh province, Sindh govt decided to return land owned by Muslims before 1907, which Hindus had bought owning to their own effort and economic success. Hindu merchants had a feeling of their fate after partition. After partition 800 Sikhs were killed in Karanchi alone on 6th January 1948. Half of the Sindhi Hindus and Sikhs migrated to India.

Today Hindus are 8.5 % population of Sindh.

• Amarkot-52.15%
• Tharparkar-44%
• MirpurKhas-39%
• Tando-34%
• Shanghar-22%
• Badin -24%

If justice was to be done to Hindus, then Sindh should have been partitioned like Bengal, Assam, or Punjab with Eastern Hindu Majority part becoming Indian Sindh. Hindus of Sindh almost live as third class citizens, because of our faults.

Times of India 1936, it says how Congress separated Sindh from Bombay to gain support of Muslims before elections. But Muslims did not support congress. It seems more of a hypocrisy of congress leaders which made them always eager to gift India to Muslims in order to beg certificate of secularism from Muslims.

Leaders from Sindh and Sodha Rajputs had requested Nehru and others to partition Sindh and merge Hindu majority areas with India, along with Umarkot. But this demand was also ignored.

Chitagong Hill Tract (Bangladesh)

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chittagong_Hill_Tracts_conflict

The Cittagong Hill Tracts( 13295 sqkms) had a tribal population of 97.5% at the time of partition when it was supposed to be included in India. But Pakistan Army occupied the hill tracts on August 20, 1947. On 15 August 1947, many of the tribes did not know to which side of the border they belonged. On 17 August, the publication of the Radcliffe Award put the CHTs in Pakistan.Two days later, the CHTPA (Chittagong Hill Tracts People's Association) resolved not to abide by the award and hoisted the Indian flag. The Pakistani army dealt with the protest by killing several Chakma.  

Despite repressions during the Pakistani rule, the Chakma tribals managed to survive, but after the out-break of insurgency by Shanti Vahini in mid-70s, the then president Zia-Ur Rahman started settling Muslims from the plains into Chitgaon. By 2001 tribal population had gone down to 55%. Chakma Buddhists are still fleeing to India and Myanmar. Bangladesh govt provides free ration and financial aid to settled Muslims. Tribal land is being forcibly grabbed with legal aids provided by Govt, atrocities are being committed on Chakmas daily. 

As recent as 3rd August 2013, Muslim settlers attacked Chakma villages, murdering 6, injuring 50 and setting ablaze dozens of villages, 500 houses. 2000 people fled to Tripura on Indian side.  Attack on Chakmas was justified by local media on grounds that Chakma abducted one Muslim, but that was staged drama to as accepted by Assistant police superintendent of Ramgarh Circle. 

Indian media and western media have shunned the news about atrocities on Chakma, always. Same media and Human rights makes hue and cry when Rohangias are attacked in Myanmar (for their own reasons), Rohangias are originally Bangladeshi Muslims. 

Chitagong port was single access of north east to sea, It would have been very easily connected to Port of Kolkata through sea route. North east lost its chance to connectivity, prosperity and security.

Khulna Division (Bangladesh)

Khulna Division is on the other side of border, adjacent to Kolkata. At time of independence, Khulna divison comprised of several of Bangladesh districts. Hindu constituted 52% of population of Khulna at time of partition.

In total about 35,000 square Kms area went to Bangladesh including Chitgaong Hill tract and Khulna.  India only got small muslim majority Murshidabad with 5000 sq Kms and Kishanganj (Bihar) 1900 sq Kms, in lieu. Congress did not put any resistance. 

Lahore (Pakistan)

Lahore city itself had Hindu-Sikh majority. But Muslim League, Unionist Party with tacit support of Congress were successful in changing demography of Lahore year after year since 1930, with inclusion of Muslim majority villages from west into Lahore municipality, pre-planned settling of Muslim villagers. Muslim league and Unionist encouraged Muslims to register their numbers more than actual numbers, number of muslims were exaggerated to get Lahore.  Hindus owned 80% of wealth of Lahore, their efforts of centuries, Colleges, Banks, Industry everything was lost in a single stroke of fate at hands of pseudo-secularist Congress party. 

Kashmir

A point must be added to Jammu and Kashmir being considered Muslim majority. In fact Kashmir is only 15% of J&K, so 85% area have Hindu Buddhist majority. So any dispute must be considered on 15% area Valley only not on entire Jammu and Kashmir.

Land we lost: In Green Area in which Muslim population is more than 25%. More than 25% already feels like Muslim majority area, because of their voting as one block (while 75% will behave like 3 blocks of 25% each: patriotic Hindu, confused Hindu and passive Hindu). 

Muslim Population in 2011: Total: 49.89 crore, 35%

India: 17.22 crore in 2011,  Increase 4.86 times from 1951

Bangladesh: 14.86 crore 4.38 times from 1951

Muslim Population in 1941: Total : 9.445 crore, 24%

India: 4.265 crore, (India total 31.9 crore, Muslim 13.37 %).
