Channel 4 Documentary - India 1947: Partition in Colour (Part 1/2)

On 15 August 1947, India officially declared independence, but not without conflict, violence and bloodshed between Pakistan. To commemorate the 75th Independence Day in both India and Pakistan, Channel 4 broadcast a two-part documentary to show the process of how India and Pakistan came to be after the British Empire left. Part 1 features the relationship between the leaders of the Hindu National Congress Party, Jawaharlal Nehru and All India Muslim League, Muhammad Ali Jinnah with Lord Louis Mountbatten, the last Viceroy of India along with his wife, Countess Edwina Mountbatten. The documentary is based on a timeline and this part begins more than a year before partition and ends with the announcement on 03 June 1947 from Lord Mountbatten that India and Pakistan were to be partitioned on 15 August 1947. Follow the story through films seen in colour, some for the very first time, along with interviews from historians, professors, descendants of those directly responsible in terms of the decision-making process, transcripts dating back to the period in question and archived audiotapes from people who witnessed the conflict first-hand. Narrated by Shaheen Khan.
