pathankot
between march and august 1947, a series of riots, arson, plunder of sikh property, assassination of sikh leaders, and killings in jhelum districts, rawalpindi, attock and other places made tara singh call the situation in punjab as "civil war", while lord mountbatten stated "civil war preparations were going on". the riots had triggered the early waves of migration in april, with some 20,000 people leaving northwest punjab and moving to patiala. in rawalpindi, 40,000 people became homeless. the sikh leaders made desperate petitions, but all religious communities were suffering in the political turmoil. sikhs, states banga, were "only 4 million out of a total of 28 million in punjab, and 6 million out of nearly 400 million in india; they did not constitute the majority, not even in a single district".
