(C) Mountbatten was the British Governor-General during the partition of India.
- Lord Louis Mountbatten served as the last Governor-General of British India.
- He was appointed by King George VI to prevent the partitioning of the Indian subcontinent.
- Mountbatten failed to persuade Jinnah about the benefits of staying united.
- Thus in the end the INC and the Muslim League came to an agreement, and the Indian Independence Act, 1947 was enforced.
- This act was passed by the British parliament that decided to divide British India into two independent countries, India and Pakistan.
