देश के बंटवारे के दर्द को कभी भुलाया नहीं जा सकता। नफरत और हिंसा की वजह से हमारे लाखों बहनों और भाइयों को विस्थापित होना पड़ा और अपनी जान तक गंवानी पड़ी। उन लोगों के संघर्ष और बलिदान की याद में 14 अगस्त को 'विभाजन विभीषिका स्मृति दिवस' के तौर पर मनाने का निर्णय लिया गया है।

May the #PartitionHorrorsRemembranceDay keep reminding us of the need to remove the poison of social divisions, and disharmony and further strengthen the spirit of oneness, social harmony, and human empowerment.
- As we all Indians know what happened at that time was horrible.
- Pakistan was carved out as a Muslim country after the division of India by British colonial rule in 1947.
- Millions of people were displaced and many lost their lives in the riots. The Place Nokhali in West Bengal and Bihar witnessed Massacres and violence on large scale.
The date when the partition was announced was a terrific date for Indian History. The partition took the figure of Painful memory in the history of India and Pakistan.
In our history, The partition of India was the division of British India into two Dominions India and Pakistan.
The two states have since gone through further reorganization: the Dominion of India is today the Republic of India and Pakistan. To read more visit the post-Indian Independent Act of 1947.
