My amma (RIP) was born in Kolkata in 1946, in the muslim quarter. She was 2 months old, I believe when the Hindu-moslem riot broke out. My first grand-mother (my grand-father's first wife) died in Kolkata of heart disease in 1944 and she is buried in the Moslem Cemetery there. I have visited her grave site once in 1978.
