Mr. Zakariya has not given the reason behind Hindu water and Muslim water, which was because Hindus in Punjab/UP/MP/Rajasthan were mainly #vaishnavites vegetarian/did #not eat beef, whereas Muslims were mainly non-vegetatian and #ate beef. That's why the utensils were different. In areas where Hindus were Shaivites non-vegetarian (such as Kashmir, Bengal, Kerala) there was no such problem, except that Hindus would only eat vegetarian food when invited by Muslims because of fear of being served 'beef'

Myself a retired Lecturer from Eastern Punjab Education Department, Since my Pry.and even Middle classes,Untouchability against lower sections of Hindu ,Sikh and Muslim Community was dominant ,later ,the situation improved with the passage of time.It was, perhaps, I think due to their lower professions and moreover their eating trends like Slaughtering Cows etc. This was the main cause root of quarrel between Hindus Sikhs versus Muslims .

[@mahinderpal9404]

@Mian tech There no specific reason that only Muslims are targeted everywhere , people of other religions and communities are also being targeted by one way or the other just to keep Dominance of one Particular Community over the other,so, brother,in order to live with communal harmony,giving due respect to the feelings and beliefs of one community to other is the need of the hour,here,the word Slaughtering of cows is quoted just only for example not to hurt your feelings.

good that partition happened, in hindsight it was a good decision. still so many poor and uneducated muslims chose to stay back, though the entire upper and middle class moved to Pakistan. many did not have the money to buy a rail ticket to Pakistan. and some were close to their ancestors' properties and graves in UP/CP/Bihar, 3 brothers moved and 1 stayed back in lucknow to take care of property; for many in UP/CP/Bihar, Pakistan was like a desert where camels ran.

With due respect sir there were such things that time but it wasn't due to hate but food choice what I have heard. Muslims and Dalits used to eat non veg foods and butcher animals which non-muslims and non dalits didn't do that time.

If we go back a thousand years from today think of the status of women in society, cast , religious division etc. That time there was monarchy and societies were divided basis the class/cast etc for eg: King used to be Rajpoot, Brahmins were in education, While other cast were in service which made them make low progress and yes social bias were there. Now we are no more ruled by King so all rules are based constitution and things are equal for everyone. Mentally it takes centuries to get rid of such bloody things 😀

Very nice frank narration. Untouchability sowed seeds for partition I don't understand why it happened when we have food at restaurants we don't see who used which cup and tea plate hindu mussalman Brahmin or shundra drink in same cup then why this. Perhaps social divide and intolerance was the main root cause other could be economic and political one.

[@vrindabolinjkar3861]

Look at the times he is talking about , there was hardly any outside / restaurant eating

My Mum’s family were upset when the Brits left India as they had good relations with them but unfortunately my family decided to stay in India after partition as they didn’t need to go but now I’m wondering should they have done it.

There were no Balochs in the so called Baloch regiment as Jinnah attacked the Kalat state to own it for minerals like gold and copper. Kalat was not given to so called Pakistan. The sheer origin was decided in the UK by SOB Churchill and SOB Chamberlain under the divide and rule policy to keep India at war and avoid another Japan from rising.

Painful story but those money from Jutes you got from Bangladesh.... actually our money

Untouchablity..... Killing cow ,eating flesh. ..... My family also treat me as untouchable when I eat eggs or chicken....

[@subhranshuganguly2246]

If U are a good muslim pls answer why you killed millions of Bengali Hindus in great calcutta killings in 1946. Hazrat bal fiasco which happened in kashmir but u killed Bengali Hindus in collaboration with fake liberal bangladeshi muslims in 1964. Then again in 1971 in Khulna after which Hindus became minority in Khulna.

[@manojkumar-rf6re]

hamne wo samay dekha nahi lekin sunkar shocked ho jaate hai ki dono taraf se aane jaane waale Hindu musalmano ne kitna bura samay dekha aur jhela, lekin in respected buzurg ki ye baat thodi azeeb lagi ki uss daur mein musalmaao ke saath touching bhedbhav hota tha aur iss wazan se Muslim Pakistan chahte the🧐🤔 kyonki hamne to aaz tak yahi suna hai ki sab dharam ke log pyaar prem se rehte the, shayad in buzurg ne bhi aisa kuch bataaya hai, lekin ye bhedbhaaw waali kahaani ki theory hazam nahi hui, kuch to aisa hai jo sach nahi hai😊🙏

You have reservation power. The government has provided you lots of facilities. If you can't utilize these all and are still crying then it's your fault only.

Surprised to know the unthinkable discrimination on religious grounds and also the voting franchise employed by Britishers during those days.
