Answer 2

Punjab was divided into two parts in 1947, that is – West Punjab and East Punjab.

Explanation:

The Army of Pakistan was the Army of Punjab. Pakistan was formed, but the rift between the west and the east weakened it from the middle. That is why East Pakistan became a free country after the 1971 war. That means Bangladesh.

This partition betrayed the theory of two communities and this division in the Pakistani community deepened the root of hatred for India. Pakistan also inherited some more strategic weaknesses in terms of geographical politics. The geographical composition of Pakistan which became in August 1947 was different from the rest of the world.
