Important: counts of claims, sources and events describe the research collection. They are not
counts of independently verified incidents. Pre-modern battle and casualty numbers come from court
chroniclers and are recorded as claims, never as counts.

## Headline findings
- Partition: 14.49 million migrants counted (all religions) — the largest forced migration ever documented, counted by two hostile governments.
- Hindus and Sikhs are the most-displaced religious group of the modern era: 18–22 million (range, not a point figure).
- 85–97% of recorded deaths are colonial-era famine. Everything else across thirteen centuries totals roughly 0.85–6.4 million. The medieval toll is unknowable.
- Pakistan's Supreme Court found 408 of 428 temples converted.
- Bangladeshi economist Abul Barkat counted 2.6 million acres seized under the Vested Property Act.
- Four of six outright expulsions — Burma, Uganda, Bhutan, Fiji — were not carried out by Islamic states.
- Collection size: 179 dated events over 1,526 years, 238 candidate claims, 105 source records, 33 story briefs, 63 corrections, 50 recorded gaps, 12 reproducible calculations.

## Additional event research — 5 October 2026
- [Madras / Great Famine, 1876–1878](https://hindujago.com/events/EV-087): secondary-source range 5.6–9.6 million famine-wide deaths, all communities. Preserved report range 5.5–10.3 million remains unchanged. Drought, colonial relief, exports, Temple wage and disease are discussed with source limitations.
- [Direct Action Day / Great Calcutta Killings, 16–19 August 1946](https://hindujago.com/events/EV-094): original estimate 4,000–10,000 deaths across Hindu and Muslim communities; Markovits gives 5,000–10,000 dead and approximately 15,000 wounded. The original 100,000 homeless figure remains uncorroborated in this review and is distinct from Banglapedia's 100,000 injured.
- [Additional event research JSON](https://hindujago.com/data/event-research.json): accounts, numerical scopes, source links and archival image credits. Alternative estimates are not added to inherited totals.
