Whatever may be your technical skills, the way you present your views on the field matters. To shoot up this skill in our students an event named "Prezento" was conducted by LEO club of ACGCET this week. This event was particularly organized to preach the nooks and corners of presenting a ppt. In addition to this they also taught the steps to create a professional mail id and resume.

PARTITION OF 1947:

The partition of Punjab in 1947 in mid-august 1947 took place as part of as a negotiated settlement brokered by the British between the Indian national congress , the All India Muslim league and Sikh of Punjab to partition India and transfer power to India and Pakistan. The principle on which the India and Pakistan separated was that Muslim majority areas were separated from the rest of India and Pakistan. The demand to partition was made by the main communal party of the Muslims, the All India Muslim league. It insisted that Muslims were not a minority but a separate nation by virtue of their Islamic faith and culture. On June 3 1947 the partition plan was announced which required the Punjab and Bengal assemblies to vote in favor of partitioning their provinces. Every year Islamic republic of Pakistan celebrates its independence on 14th August. But How many of you know ?  The man who was behind India and Pakistan partition had never seen the country. Even when Pakistan and India achieved Independence , till Aug 17,there was no announcement on the borders of two countries . The man who was set the boundary lines for the India and Pakistan was Cyril john Radcliffe, the British lawyer and Landlord. He was given the daunting task of the chairmanship of two boundary committees of drawing the borders for the nations of India and Pakistan, such a way that would leave as many Hindus and Sikhs in India and Muslims in Pakistan as possible. British government had given the responsibility of dividing Punjab and Bengal province between the union of India and dominion of Pakistan to sir John Radcliffe. He was commissioned to equitably divide 4,50,000 sq km  of territory with 88 million people. The estimated loss of life during the India and Pakistan partition in one million. For the Punjab alone, the loss of life is estimated between 500,000-800,000 and 10 million people were forced to flee for their lives. Radcliffe had no complete information about the geography of India. On the basis of maps, castes and religions , Radcliffe divided the two nations. British Govt had given him only 5 weeks to complete the daunting task. On the day of partition Bengal’s Muslim dominated areas of Murshidabad and Malda had put Pakistani flags in their houses, but they later came to know that were parts of India. Chittagong , with only 2% of Muslim population went to Pakistan.
