Oh hey, it’s a hornets nest! Let’s give it a shake and see what happens!
It’s a legit question.
Don’t worry, I know it’s a sensitive question and I’m not saying it’s a shit one.
I was saying a couple of things at once.
- It’s basically what the British were thinking/doing
- It takes a certain size of iron balls to ask Indians/Pakistanis a question like this
I’ve seen both indians and Pakistanis complain about how it was done but they also admit there was no way to do it cleanly and the religious differences would eventually spill over politics and cause the territory of India/Pakistan to be as unstable as the middle east
It’s a legit answer. Sounds like their answer is yes it was a mistake, and the implied thing to be done instead is to leave it alone

When you say federation of power to states, do you mean you would want a federal government with several smaller states/provinces with substantial powers? Or several small countries?

At the very least, they should have separated Pakistan and Bangladesh from the very beginning.
Lots of deaths leading up to it. Lots of deaths during partition. Not so many deaths since.
Slightly better than a civil war given how messy they tend to be probably.
Sometimes there’s no good options (without a time machine for killing pedos 😉)
Nothing wpuld have made it better. Best thing would have been leaving them alone, that way when they fought, the UK wouldnt be blamed.
lmao after 400 years of brutal subjugation, destruction of local industry and colonialism, the UK was going to get blamed for it anyway, as they should be.
The universe handed you a golden opportunity to blame-Meta, and you…dropped the ball. 😉
