![]() I hope jeetiaf realizes how futile his counter arguments are. There was a time I used to think his arguments have weight. Once he said, "Kashmir issue" is about ethnicity and has nothing to do with religion. Since it came from him, I kind of pondered over it. But it seems he says stuff just for the sake of it.

A - Malerkotla There was a purpose in 47 and there was quite a bit of wiping out of peaceful guys in Punjab (Mind you, Sardarjis had a bitter history with R.O.P till Zia ul Haq, and the Gandhi family changed things). Cool Pai's question was how this city managed to get away. Doc ji and then i have pasted the answer to this question. b. general ROP Your comment was to his PC statement on there being massacre on both the sides. i wont debate that. However, have an observation (on the lines of Jeet Pai) that more Hindus managed to get away in Sindh or then East Bengal than in West Punjab. Is it that peaceful guys are not so peaceful there or there were more Hindus to start with.

Re: Malerkotla, Punjab
I would say, more hindus to start with. This also explains what happened to India. There are plenty of arguments that say that with all the violence brought to India by the moghuls, there should be no Hinduism left in India... so, conversely, since there are so many Hindus left, moghuls were peaceful.

Re: Malerkotla, Punjab
Thanks for your replies Ashdoc, Sgars & Peaceseeker....
![]() Peaceseeker, apparently before partition, Gurdaspur, Ferozepur & a few more towns in East Punjab had a majority Muslim population. So the ethnic cleansing during partition wasn't merely confined to the west & was mutual on both sides.. |

Re: Malerkotla, Punjab
The original deal was that everyone remained where they were. But thanks to the ethnic cleansing that followed (it started with 'Direct action day' and apparently ended with Gandhi's assasination), there was a big movement.

Re: Malerkotla, Punjab
He probably wanted to settle back in Bombay after setting up Pakistan. That is what many big shot 'Engagement Managers' do. 'Structure a program', show some powerpoints on the awesome benefits and move on to another one before cans of worm open up for the next bakra. Only here, he died within months of setting that up.
