It led to the closure of stations which had gathered listeners by playing pp which had gathered listeners by playing pop music, rarely heard on the bbc at the time. Good morning. Its monday 14th august. Im rachel schofield. Welcome to bbc Newsroom Live. 70 years ago tonight, 200 years of British Colonial rule in india came to an end and the country was partitioned into two independent Nation States hindu majority india and muslim majority pakistan. The result was the one of the largest Mass Migrations ever recorded. Pakistan celebrates its Independence Day today, with india marking the occasion tomorrow. In 1947, after months of political deadlock, britain agreed to divide the country in two. A separate and mainly muslim nation, pakistan, was created to meet concerns that the large Muslim Minority would be at a disadvantage in hindu majority india. Partition triggered one of the great calamities of the modern era, perhaps the Biggest Movement of people, outside war and famine, that the world has ever seen. No one knows the precise numbers, but an estimated 12 Million People found themselves on the wrong side of the border hindus and sikhs moved to india and muslims travelled in the opposite direction to pakistan. Sectarian violence erupted and hundreds of thousands of people on all sides were killed. Reeta chakrabarti is in the pakistani City Of Karachi for the celebrations and sent this report. Its pakistans birthday and at every street corner, there are flags and celebrations. But its 70 years have been very mixed. It was founded as a democracy, but has had military rule. People argue whether its founder, Muhammad Jinnah, wanted a secular state or an islamic one. I went to one of karachis universities to ask students what they think of Muhammad Jinnah and pakistan today. Muhammadjinnah, its the biggest name for pakistan. And every nation of the world. He is like a father. The father of the nation and he created pakistan. Do you think Muhammad Jinnah would be happy with pakistan as it is today . He would be happy. He would be really happy. Pakistan is progressing every day, every second. On this 70th Anniversary of independence, the country has grown very well and it is flourishing day by day and i hope it will prosper day by day. Do you think thats Muhammad Jinnah would be happy with pakistan as it is today . Not that much. Basically he would see the basic needs of the people are not fulfilling right now. Much of the problem now is in the religion because people nowadays, they are not tolerant and they are too much emotional. Crowds come to Muhammad Jinnah mausoleum to pay their respects. The countries he founded was rocked again last month when the Prime Minister was forced to resign over corruption charges. Finding political stability remains one of pakistans many challenges. 0ur Correspondent Secunder is in islamabad for us. How are things being marked their today . Across the world, many people will consider this the 70th Anniversary of partition and the awful events that happened there. Here in pakistan, it is being celebrated. It is seen as the 70th Anniversary of the countrys independence and something that should be celebrated and people are proud of the achievements that have been made over the past 70 years and in recent years, where the number of deaths by terrorists have fallen for example. The ceremonies and celebrations started last night when the chief of the Pakistani Army helped hoist what is said to be the largest flag, the highest flag in all of asia at the border with india. Today, there has been another Flag Raising Ceremony in islamabad. The president addressed the nation. 0ne the president addressed the nation. One of the chief guests was actually a chinese politician. There has been an airshow put on by the Pakistani Air force. An airshow put on by the Pakistani Airforce. Their an airshow put on by the Pakistani Air force. Their planes and jets have been buzzing over our heads over the past couple of hours. This Independence Day is regularly very enthusiastically celebrated by ordinary pakistanis every year. Later on, large numbers of people will be out in their streets and cars, waving flags and showing their support. Alongside the sense of celebration, is there any sense of celebration, is there any sense of celebration on what the future holds for ba rca stun . Celebration on what the future holds for barca stun . For pakistan. Celebration on what the future holds for barca stun . For pakistan. The celebrations come at a time of real political upheaval for pakistan. The Prime Minister was ousted following corruption allegations, although he has denied any wrongdoing. He has given a series of speeches in the past few days in which he has repeatedly mentioned the fact that throughout pakistans 70 year history, no Prime Minister has ever completed a full term in office. 0ften completed a full term in office. Often because of interference by the military and it seems that the former Prime Minister is trying to suggest that the military were behind his removal. Although the military have denied that. Alongside the sense of celebration, there is a certain sense of introspection about pakistans political history and what might be in store for the next yea rs. What might be in store for the next years. Thank you very much indeed. As weve been hearing, india celebrate the partition tomorrow. 0ur CorrespondentSanjoy Majumder is in delhi for us. How is the mood there . A great sense of anticipation here as we gear up to indias Independence Day. In a few hours from now the building behind me will be illuminated, that it Indias Parliament were 50 years ago at midnight, the country celebrated its freedom from colonial room. Its First Minister brought in independence with a memorable speech in which he said as the world sleeps, india will awake to life and freedom. As you look where india was as 70 years ago, there is not to be proud of. Many predicted it would break up because it is such a diverse country, but it has endured asa diverse country, but it has endured as a functional company. That is not the same as pakistan, they have seen many governments take office in a very peaceful transition of power. 0ne very peaceful transition of power. One of the largest economies in the world. As people reflect over the past 70 years, there is a sense of concern that some of the ideals that brought in indias freedom and its freedom leader Mahatma Gandhi, some of those might be shifting away from it. The thought that this is a secular country, looking at a lot of the conflicts that were around at the conflicts that were around at the time of independence still possessed. The conflict with pakistan over kashmir, for instance. The religious issues with minority muslims and majority hindus, for example. They have achieved a lot over this period of time, but there isa over this period of time, but there is a long way away to the ideals that Mahatma Gandhi stood for. Yes, what about the relationship with pakistan . What is the feeling about what needs to be done . Kashmir is a key topic. The astonishing thing is that these are two countries which are so close, notjust geographically, but also culturally. There are so much in common, yet there is not a daily flight between islamabad and delhi, it is just so difficult to get from one country to another. 70 years after they both celebrated their freedom from britain, relations continue to be not just britain, relations continue to be notjust in addition indifferent, but hostile. It is interesting to see that the indian primers to have they are both Nuclear Powers now, they have large armies, they have lots of problems which are similar in terms of their economies, Living Standards of many of its people, people on both sides who believe that the leader of the two countries really do need to do much more to push aside these differences and reach out to each other. Thanks very much indeed. Joining me now is dr yasmin khan, lecturer in British History at Oxford University and author of the great partition The Making Of India and pakistan. Thanks for coming in. This book as well as an academic exercise was also a look at real peoples lives, not least a sense of your own family and their story. It is to be that the history of the partition was about muhammadjinnah and the history of the partition was about Muhammad Jinnah and mahatma gandhl about Muhammad Jinnah and Mahatma Gandhi, the characters at the forefront of the decision, but in recent yea rs, forefront of the decision, but in recent years, people have become much more interested in what happened to ordinary people, the displacement that happened at that time and a real lives that were destroyed. That is how i became interested in the history like many Second Generation children of refugees and i became interested to see what happened to the ordinary people trained to rebuild their lives. As a prize where you about what you found . Lives. As a prize where you about what you found . This gale of what happened in 1947 is astonishing. We see the foundations of the conflicts between india and pakistan still in those origins in 1947, the decision that was made. Some are expected things happen, nobody that agree to that plan would have seen that a Mass Migration would have happened 01 Mass Migration would have happened or the conflict that happened afterwards. How strong an identity do you think there still is in terms of the very separate nests of those countries . It is hard for them to meet. To go across and get visas. There are peace organisations, we have to remember that indians and pakistanis are divided among ideas about nationalism, what kind of state india should be, what kind of state india should be, what kind of state pakistan should be. It is not a two way division in any way. It gets harder and harder for a two way division in any way. It gets harder and harderfor people to share a common history and talk about this route and foundations and to see what happened in 1947 in the same way. You spoke about your interest as a Second Generation and young person with no direct experience, how much difference to think there is between the attitudes who people with people who remember their childhood . A bit of a difference. People say that the elderly generation speak very fondly about neighbours, friends. Leaving keys with the neighbours, people who helped them escape. Mixed feelings, complex. Later generations, it has become stripped down and simplified and harder to get back to that texture a nd and harder to get back to that texture and nuance. Given that, the entrenched centre division, how hopeful idea looking to the future . I try to stay optimistic. Both countries would benefit enormously from Better Trade Relations and from closer relationships. We hope for the best and this is a moment after 70 years to try and reflect on that shared history and to try and remember how stereotyping and divisions could come about and actually think about how we see the other in south asia.

Where in the uk can you buy alcohol at 4am seven days a week . The answer is at an international airport. And it seems that its leaving passengers and crew with a hangover.

Do you think airports are doing enough . I think they could do more. I think the retailers could do more as well. Two litres of beer in bars, mixers and miniatures in duty free shops, which can only be there for one reason. But the Airport 0perators Association insists that their code of practice does works. I dont accept that the airports dont sell alcohol responsibly. The sale of alcohol per se is not a problem. Its the misuse of it and drinking to excess and then behaving badly.
