Gandhi, who said that the nation should be dismembered on my dead body, why did he accept partition? Could partition have been avoided if Gandhi had thought? So, is this Gandhi's failure? Why did Jinnah, who was associated with the Congress, suddenly raise the theory of Pakistan? Opinions may vary as to who can be held guilty and what are the grounds for partition. This is not just political history. It is also a moving story of the people of the two nations, twisted by the demon of sectarianism.
