Answer

The partition of India was the division of British India into two independent dominions, India and Pakistan, on 15 August 1947. The partition plan was agreed upon by Indian leaders, including Muhammad Ali Jinnah, who supported the creation of Pakistan as a homeland for Indian Muslims. Maududi, a prominent Muslim theologian and politician, opposed the partition and argued that it would lead to the oppression of Muslims in India.
