Hindu communalism grew and became a mass phenomenon during 1985-2000 period. During India's freedom movement, Hindu communalism wasn't significant political force. Partition was, therefore, a response to the rising and victorious freedom movement that was democratic and secular. _Partition was a disaster for Indian secularism._

Even during 1985-2000 period, BJP has never polled more than 24% of the total votes in any elections.
