[edit] Fair Use Rationale

Although this image, Partition-punjab-spate.jpg, may be subject to copyright, I (Fowler&fowler«Talk» 20:54, 23 April 2007 (UTC)) feel it is covered by the U.S. fair use laws because:

1. it is a low resolution copy of the original;
2. the image is significant because it is essential for accurately describing the partition of India.
3. the image is not available in the public domain.
4. the image being used only in two wikipedia pages Partition of India is being used only for educational reasons and not for profit;

Any other uses of this image, on Wikipedia or elsewhere, may be copyright infringement. See Wikipedia:Non-free content and Wikipedia:Copyrights. To the uploader: this tag is not a sufficient claim of fair use. You must also include the source of the work, all available copyright information, and a detailed non-free use rationale.
