Aazadi Mubarak ho mere bhaiyon, Aaj jee bhar ke desh bhakti kar lo, Waise bhi baki poora saal toh humne desh ko kooste rehna hai.

Herez a little video i found on fb the other day, Just a Gentle reminder to respect the freedom we take granted for most of the times, and salute to those who gave up their future for our present #JaiHind

Yes. British India included Pakistan and Bangladesh.

At midnight on August 15th, 1947, Pakistan was created. With the Indian Independence Act of 1947, the release of control by the British would also split what was known as British India into two distinct countries whose borders were determined by the religious groups that most densely populated the areas. The Union of India (later Republic of India) would be secular but with a Hindu majority and Muslims would control the Dominion of Pakistan (later divided further still into Pakistan and Bangladesh.) The states of Bengal and Punjab were also sliced in two along the Radcliffe Line, as well as the Army, Treasury, Navy, and Railway industry.
Muhammad Ali Jinnah, who is regarded as the father of Pakistan, believed that a unified nation would only lead to marginalization of Muslims and, eventually, violence and civil war.
However, the division of the country led to the displacement of millions of people. Hindus and Muslims who suddenly found themselves in different countries on August 15th fled their home in fear of violence.

Mahatma Gandhi's comment on this entire matter elucidates the situation further:

"My whole soul rebels against the idea that Hinduism and Islam represent two antagonistic cultures and doctrines. To assent to such a doctrine is for me a denial of God."

- Mohandas Gandhi's reaction to the proposal of a separate Muslim state.

^Yet, he allowed the partition to happen, leading to Mahatma Gandhi's assasination on 30th January, 1948.
