I think Pakistan got its Independence from the British on August 14 and then India got its Independence from Pakistan on August 15.

The signing off of some papers for Pakistan was done on 14th August, for India on 15th August.

Celebrations kicked off on the 14th, when Lord Mountbaten came here on that day, it was planned for the 15th initially but since he couldn't be in both places at once he came to Pakistan a day earlier to formally hand it over. Although on documents it was written 15th but practically it was 14th.

tanks for info

I read it somewhere in a book, Jinnah of pakistan by Stanley Wolpert i think, that this was because at midnight, two states were created, and so, these two states used different time zones, India was half an hour ahead of us, while we were half an hours behind.

So when it was 12:00 at night in India, it was 11:30 in Pakistan state time.

hence it was 15th in India, but 14th in Pakistan.

RazPak, you've become an expert in derailing threads.

Congratulations. That's one thing you've excelled in in your life.

All 180 Million Pakistanis must be outsiders, according to Indian logic.

Yup that's a possible explanation.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

We follow Zaid Hamid too

Now why did you leave out other "stalwarts" like Ahmed Qureshi, Christina Palmer and Rupee News (sadly now reduced to Chawanni News, after devaluation of the Rupee).

Of course Lal-Topi is the King of the Pack!
