Question

Which one of the following was not a reason for the partition of British India in 1947? 

विकल्प

• The Two-Nation theory

• The political aim of the Muslim League

• Integration of Princely States with India

• British policy to divide India

Answer 1

Integration of Princely States with India

Explanation:

The Two-Nation Theory (a), the Muslim League's political objective (b), and British intention to split India (d) were some of the reasons for the 1947 partition of British India. The integration of Princely States with India, however, was a problem encountered throughout the process of uniting the newly created Indian territory following independence and was not the cause of partition.
