For the most part, the Hindus generally moved into the Indian subcontinent while the Muslims, who feared Hindu domination, migrated to East and West Pakistan. In Document 8 it shows that there were around 8.6 million Muslim refugees that migrated out of India into either East or West Pakistan. In addition to this extraordinary refugee crises, another effect the division of India had was border tensions. The tensions between the borders of India and Pakistan resulted in India being at the “receiving end of Pakistan’s heavy shelling” and “heavy bombing” (Document 9b). This shows that not only was there a large scale migration crises, there was also several attacks and possibly deaths and casualties from bombs.

    Terrorism has changed and developed across the world over time, much like the world has changed and developed over time. Advancements in technology, communications, military and transportation have also aided in the advancement of terrorist ability.

    Therefore, to curb this situation, India and the United States have made efforts to reduce the expansion of such weapons. It is important to note that India was never a member to the Non-proliferation treaty . Despite this, India has proved itself to the world as a responsible user of nuclear technology . With the rise in nuclear weapons, global terrorism creates a larger threat and this has been a serious issue discussed by both the countries. This aspect has led to a closer outlook on terrorism. India has had a history of terrorist groups attacking its major cities, the most known terrorist attack was the Mumbai attack in 2008 and similarly, the bombing of the twin towers in the United States and several other centers in the United States has made both countries look at terrorism in a similar manner .
