India gained its independence in 1947. At this same time India was partitioned into the Union of India and the Dominion of Pakistan.
India was partitioned in 1947 primarily due to religious tensions between Hindus and Muslims, exacerbated by the demand for a separate Muslim state by the All-India Muslim League, led by Muhammad Ali Jinnah. The British colonial administration sought to address these communal divisions and manage the struggle for independence, ultimately leading to the creation of two independent nations: India and Pakistan. The partition aimed to provide a homeland for Muslims in Pakistan while maintaining a secular state in India, but it resulted in widespread violence and mass migrations.

India and Pakistan
India was partitioned in 1947 based on religious lines to create Pakistan, following the ideology of Muslim nationalism propagated by Muhammad Ali Jinnah and the All India Muslim League. The Partition was a result of growing tensions between the Muslim and Hindu communities in colonial India, and the demand for a separate Muslim-majority nation. This form of nationalism led to the division of the subcontinent into two separate countries, India and Pakistan, to address the aspirations of the Muslim population for a separate homeland.
