Jawaharlal Nehru, Gandhis protg and the political leader of India, believed Indians were an inherently nonviolent, peaceful people. Pakistans founder, Mohammad Ali Jinnah, was a secular lawyer, not a firebrand. But in August 1946, exactly a year before Independence, Calcutta erupted in street-gang fighting.
