Read the above lines you wrote. You HAVE said the same.

Then how do you explain the fact that from a 46:54 ratio of=20 Hindus:Muslims in pre-partition Bengal the ratio is now 10:90 in=20 Bangladesh whereas the percentage of muslims in WB is steadily=20 increasing. Besides I haven't heard of any textbooks from North-India.=20 However, your textbooks were probably supplied from the erstwhile Soviet=20 Union. > Marwaris are a community , who are wronged like hell, They have been > kicked out of their home-state , and only Bengal gave them not > individual home but a home as a community where they have a lebensraum.

So you do agree that it was a collusion between two of your friends-the=20 eternally secular Congress and Muslim League-both of whom are now=20 partners of the left. What was the role of the left then? Who did it side= =20 with? Was the deal of United leadership fair? > I only said we write after we researched and we do not comment on > anything we do not know, you guys better start that. IF it is inflated You have so far quoted only Joya Chatterjee-a historian of little repute.= =20 Anyway I don't believe Marxist Historians as I don't believe the=20
