Question

4. Do you think the transfer of power from the british to the indians was hastily handled? Critically comment

Answer 1

Attlee’s statement gave 30 June 1948 as Deadline for transfer of power to India, but it was further hastened to 15 August 1947. There were many reasons behind this hurry also there were very few options left to opt. However, a better planned transfer of power could have avoided not only blood bath of partition but also the ongoing tug of war on Kashmir and other border areas
