After the 1857 Indian War of Independence, the British confiscated and gifted lands of Hindus to Muslims who were loyal to the British. The British also guaranteed non-interference in Muslim religious places.
In 1905, the British split Bengal by separating Muslim eastern areas from Hindu western areas. The Muslims then called for Jihad with the goal of converting Eastern Bengal into Dar-ul-Islam(Muslim controlled land). With the support of the British officers and magistrates, the Muslims attacked Hindus. When Hindus led by Rabindranath Tagore. led a protest against the partition of Bengal, the 1st Lieutenant Governor of the new province, Sir Joseph Bampfylde Fuller, treated this as treason and let the police loose on the Hindus. On December 12, 1911, due to widespread unpopularity, the partition of Bengal was removed.
The British introduced the Minto Morley reforms in the year of 1909, giving a separate electorate for Muslims. It promoted Anti-Hindu and Islamic separatist leadership.
