Mr.Singh I think it is too late ,the two countries you are talking about are already like failed states and it will be like putting an extra yoke around the necks of oxen.

Partition did not have any valid ground really - it is all politics. Nobody gained from it but a few political leaders. India was divided on the basis of religious grounds, created one Islamic country called Pakistan and the other, India remained a sovereign republic. Later the people were led to develop a sentiment against each other. Now the political/ religious leaders in all these three countries will never allow them to be united. It will certainly reduce their power. It does not really make sense why these countries stay separated - union will certainly benefit all of them. But then, the common people do not usually think beyond their own area and livelihood and hence do not care. The middle class is always selfish and skeptic. The upper class will not support such an idea. So they remain separated to nurture hostility amongst each other

Partition on religious ground is failure as true as partition on ideological ground is a failure too. The United States of India (UNI) would have been possible had these three states were having majority numbers of really 'civilized' leaders during and after the partition of 14th August 1947. The onus is always on the 'stronger' or you can say the 'leader' of the pack. It is not a secret that India had the clout to mould the psyche of the peoples of this region in a positive manner. What we found that the leadership of India were all along telling its people all the negative things about its neighbor. This is true for the neighboring countries leaders too. But the apportion of blame for failure always lies more onto he leader-of-the pack.
I have answered a similar question in the following lines and would repeat the same, as follows:
I am sorry that I could not agree with your premise that if India, Pakistan and Bangladesh become one country like before partition then India will be called Great India and it will be become Super power.
I thought that India may see that if the 'power' of individual 26 states are unleashed then their sum of individual efforts would be more than what India is getting now as a whole.
I am not at all suggesting that this disintegration of India is in the offing, but it may take some 10 to 15 years from now when they could realise that India made a tremendous leap in development only after 1990s liberalization of its economy by the present Prime Minister Mr. Manmohan Singh who was then the Finance Minister of India. For analogy we may refer to the recent 7-years history of the Soviet Union (1985-1991):
1. On February 7, 1990 the Central Committee of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union agreed to give up its monopoly of power.
2. On December 8, 1991, the leaders of the Russian, Ukrainian, and Belarusian republics met in Belavezhskaya Pushcha to issue a declaration that the Soviet Union was dissolved and replaced by the Commonwealth of Independent States (CIS). Gorbachev described this as a constitutional coup, but it soon became clear that the development could not be halted.
3. On December 25, 1991, Gorbachev resigned as president of the USSR. A day later, December 26, 1991, the Supreme Soviet dissolved itself. By December 31, 1991 all official Soviet institutions had ceased operations as individual republics assumed the central government's role. The Soviet flag was lowered for the last time over the Kremlin.
The four principal elements of the old Soviet system were the hierarchy of soviets, ethnic federalism, state socialism, and Communist Party dominance.
Market economists believed that the dismantling of the administrative command system in Russia would raise GDP and living standards by allocating resources more efficiently. They also thought the collapse would create new production possibilities by eliminating central planning, substituting a decentralized market system, eliminating huge macroeconomic and structural distortions through liberalization, and providing incentives through privatization.
Since the USSR's collapse, Russia has faced many problems that free market proponents in 1992 did not expect: among other things, 25% of the population now lives below the poverty line, life expectancy has fallen, birthrates are low, and the GDP has halved. These problems led to a series of crises in the 1990s, which nearly led to election of Yeltsin's Communist challenger, Gennady Zyuganov, in the 1996 presidential election.
So, instead of having a behemoth "Great India", let us talk about smaller many nations who can each strive to become one like Sri Lanka or Bangladesh, if not Singapore and Thailand in South Asia.
Let us set aside our sentiment and nationalism and think ahead as to how we can make the lives of our people improve from the present messy situation all over the South Asia, instead of singling out Bangladesh as a poor or failed country!

Great Questions.As a Pakistani I have nothing against India at present. we should all accept that time changes. Past was Past and one should not base his future on Past.Lets not fight over that partition was sucessfull or not.
Lets Start with Kashmir.Lets first unite Kashmir. Lets try to support our governaments to unite kashmir and try to develop a consensus that kashmir Issue should be resolved. Lets us not waste our future on the mess in the past.
no doubt we can be united, same as the Europian Union.
And one should openly tell people that please grow up.Think ahead of time not try to unfairly humilate each other about their decisions because of our prejudice.Even if they are of your own race and country.
