The separation of India into India and Pakistan occurred during India's independence from the British. Mahatma Gandhi, one of the primary supporters for peace between Hindus and Muslims, supported the divide, a move which eventually led to his assassination by a Hindu extremist. The part of India to retain its namesake contained a Hindu majority, while the portion that became Pakistan, and later Bangladesh, contained the majority of Muslims. Hindus and Muslims trapped on the wrong side of the border moved between the countries in trains following the partition.
