India        Muslim League        Direct Action Day        16 August 1946

 

Mohammed Ali Jinnah (1876-1948)

called for Direct Action on 16 August 1946

to protest against Congress and the British.

In Calcutta this led to three days of Hindu-Muslim violence

- the bloodiest in nearly a century - and thousands of deaths.
