well there is no mention of this so called massecrre as per indian records or the british ones but must have been a retaliotorry riot of some kind after watching the horrors done against hindus & sikhs in PINDI . Lahore Gunjrawala , Sialkot , Multan and its adjoining areas by muslim mobs
it was really a swage and darkest part of sub continent history all initiated by Muslim leuge and supported by 90% muslims of undivided India for a seppratte homeland and look 76 years later what that obsession has given the masses of Pakistan and Bangladesh though the later is trying to shed its obsessions with that so called two natiion theory but still has ghosts of partition in name of Jamaat e Islaami
Karachi and Lahore were both Hindu Sikh Majority cities and in both there was almost all buissness owned by Hindus and sikhs pre partiotion and post partition almost all hindus & sikhs were either killed or came to india and now look 76 years on at state of buissness and people there ... you guys must be very very proud of partition and what you did with Hindus and sikhs of your nation during partition
Guru Gandhi jee mentioned the massacres clearly in his own speeches. The massacres were covered up state officials.
Yes Muslim mobs did commit massacres in the regions you mentioned which was horrible and I wish it never happened, but they were in regions far from Kashmir. The Dogra Raj decided to bring partition to Kashmir.
The second paragraph is your opinion.
Guru jee really? Lahore never had a majority Hindu population and this is proved by census held by the British.
In the 1941 census, Lahore had a population of
6,71,659 which became 7,00,000 by 1947, containing 64.5 per cent Muslims, 30 per cent Hindus, 5 per cent Sikhs as well as a small Christian community. If you look at the central parts of the city where the well-heeled lived,
a majority Hindu community controlled most of the bazaar economy — in the famous street, Anarkali Bazaar, there being only one shop owned by a Muslim — and dominated the legal and medical professions. The voters of Punjab were united behind the Unionist Party where tribal identity — Jats and Rajputs — rather than religion dominated.
Pre-1947 Lahore, rich in writers, poets and pluralism, pushed at the boundaries of knowledge

Yes correct the Hindu population was driven out. As was the Muslim population in East Punjab.
As for Karachi this is right, the Hindu population was at 50%.
At the time of
independence, the population of the
city of Karachi was 51.1% Hindu, 42.3% Muslim, with the remaining 7% primarily Christians (both British and native), Sikhs, Jains, with a small number of Jews.
