Why did Hindus react against the partition of Bengal?

The partition of Bengal aroused fury among the Hindus. The Hindus thought that the partition of Bengal was an attempt to break the unity among the Hindus which might be a threat to the British Government. They thought that the British had applied their 'Divide and Rule Policy' meaning that the Hindus and the Muslims will keep on fighting with each other and the threat which the radical nationalism of the Hindus was disturbing the Britishers would come to an end. Consequently the Hindus' attempts to kick the British out of the Sub-continent and establish Hindu Rule would loose their solidarity and strength. Furthermore the Hindus could not bear to see the Muslims flourish and the partition of Bengal meant exactly that. It can also be seen that the Hindus wouldn't allow any degree of Partition of their Motherland, the India. This fact was confirmed by the height of opposition and objection to the Partition of India in 1947 from the Hindus.

Best quote of greatman?

Mahatma Gandhi was considered a great man and a champion of Indian civil rights. It was through his non-violence platform that India achieved its independence from the British. During the struggle for independence, however, the Muslims did not want the mastery of the British to be replaced with the mastery of the Hindus. As a result, they stood firmly with Jinnah when he demanded an independent Pakistan for the Muslims. This led to the infamous partition, which saw thousands of Hindus, Muslims, Sikhs, and other minorities lose their lives in communal strife. "An eye for an eye making the whole world blind" is a quote Gandhi used to describe the atrocities on all sides during partition.
