I know that people keep crying about partition without caring much to know about the circumstances, usually by picking up sentences from here and there, mostly from equally ignorant sources. Definitely it was dreadful to lose some parts of the country and more than that, to lose all those lives. But now with the advantage of looking back, I for one, feel very happy that partition happened. All these people put together would have formed a formidable number. Imagine having all those mad mullahs and bickering armies inside India! We are better off without them. There wouldn't have been any progress and we would have simply killed one another and lived in hatred. Funnily, people who cannot tolerate the current Indian Muslims are the loudest in crying about partition. I cannot fathom how they would have tolerated the entire Pakistani and Bangladesh Muslim population!!
