Riots in Punjab in 1947

Many people I know migrated from East Punjab. I can tell you, the rioting was so bad that even extremely well off muslims who had their business interests in India had *no option *but to leave. Lots died. Its called "rioting" but as the poster has insinuated, it was more along the lines of ethnic cleansing. A really dark chapter in human history, but one which sadly remains much in the dark.
