Abstract
Fifteenth August 1947,the first day of free India was celebrated with much exuberance and elation but this joy was tainted by despair because country has been divided. Among the various factors, railway and road connections were also taken into consideration at the drawing of International boundary. A well knit co-ordination of transport system should be implemented for the sustained economic growth for both state at that time. The partition of the country caused the severely rundown of the transportation system in the years following Independence. But several problems raised the transportation system in the wake up of partition. After partition shortage of foods, scarcity of trained men and financial stringency restricted the development in both statesat that time.
