Explanation:

The 'Partition' of India took place in 1947 when the colony of 'British India' was granted freedom and two new countries were established. India came into being as a Hindu majority but a secular government with its capital in Delhi.

Pakistan was established as a Muslim republic with a capital in Karachi. The leaders of both the new countries actually began their political careers together. Both Jinnah and Gandhi were part of the Indian National Congress, a political party fighting for political freedoms against the British.

However, disagreements quickly arose between the minority Muslim members of the party and the majority Hindus. The differences eventually resulted in the development of the All India Muslim League which campaigned for the need for a separate Muslim country.
