The Viceroy of India when Bengal was divided in 1905 was Lord Curzon. His decision to split Bengal was officially announced on July 19, 1905, and was intended to reduce the influence of the Bengali nationalists by creating a Hindu-majority province in the west and a Muslim-majority province in the east. The move sparked widespread protests and was a significant event in the Indian independence movement.
Transport between India and Bangladesh bears much historical and political significance since the national railroad was the major freight hauler at independence, but road transport in India grew rapidly after 1947. The partition of Bengal and India on August 15, 1947 led to the establishment of the Indian state of West Bengal.
