Abstract:
The pre-partition India witnessed many communal riots of small scale. But the riots that frightened and shakened the city of Calcutta in August 1946, the enormity of which was never witnessed by the Indian people before. The manner in which the hooligans organised themselves for the greater brutality to other community remains astonishing and intriguing. The role of the Bengal Chief Minister and the British officials in the phase of violence asks for the explanation. The loss of life and property was irreparable. The Calcutta Killings, in its part, once again showed the ugly fact that its very difficult for the Hindus and Muslims to co-exist in the same place. The event precipitated the process of the partition of India by many months.
