Dig into the 1947 Partition of India, when Britain split the region into two states, India and Pakistan, and the mass migrations and violence that followed.
--
In 1947, the British viceroy announced that after 200 years of British rule, India would gain independence and be partitioned into Hindu India and Muslim Pakistan. What followed was one of the largest and bloodiest forced migrations in history: an estimated 1 million people lost their lives. What caused this violent aftermath? Haimanti Roy details the lasting legacies of the Partition of India.
Lesson by Haimanti Roy, directed by Jagriti Khirwar & Raghav Arumugam.

[06 June 13] France employment offices fail to curb rising unemployment - English

Every day, a thousand jobs are lost in France. 3.2 million French are looking for jobs, that\'s a record since the 1990s. According to the International Labour Organisation, western countries like France are focusing too much on austerity and too little on creating jobs. The worst affected are those who have been out of the job market for more than six months. At state run job centers, the wait for jobs offers is getting longer. But a study shows, the centers are unable to handle fresh waves of job seekers. The study shows employment offices like the one right behind me are have such complicated administrations that they will need over three dozen reforms in order to serve the French and help them find jobs that are badly needed.

Figures released by the Committee of French Car Makers show that in the past 6 months, the number of new cars sold in the country has dropped by 11 percent compared to last year\'s figures. French brands dominate the country\'s roads. And they are the biggest victims too. Peugeot Citroen has lost 9,5 percent of the market figures and Renault has lost 4 percent in just one month : a clear sign that the French now see cars as less of a necessity. The forecasts for the next six months show the car industry will continue to go suffer in the coming months. New figures now show the French car industry is now in deep trouble. Experts say this will certainly have a great impact on the French economy. This leaves almost no doubt that France is in a recession and may not escape it anytime soon.

An unexpected side trip to Vienna for Bolivia\'s President Evo Morales. That\'s because France, Spain, Portugal and Italy refused to let his plane fly through their airspace after rumors surfaced that whistleblower Edward Snowden might be on board. Then Austrian officials confirmed that Snowden was not aboard. The Bolivians squarely put the blame on Washington for Morales\' unexpected side trip. In an exclusive interview with Press TV, Bolivia\'s ambassador in France believes the move had been planned. European leaders have been quick to express their regret, but emotions are running high in La Paz and many other South American capitals. Bolivia says Paris and other European countries will have a lot of explaining to do.
