Ahem Ahem settle down children for todays history lesson:

When Pakistan and India seperated Pakistan declared independence straightaway where as India did not...they did it a day after, thus the corresponding independence days are on seperate consecutive days....

(i asked the very same question to my dad, he told me the above :)

Ohh that's quite interesting. Well done Det. Quebec.

There was a prog on the other day called Partition, I've recorded and not had a chance to watch it yet, maybe they'll mention the fact that they have diff independence days too.
