Question

what were the factors that led to partition of india

Answer 1

the factors are:
The partition of India entailed the partition for the British Empire in India that created the sovereign states of India and Pakistan.This partition also divided the erstwhile states of Bengal and Punjab into two one each going to India and Pakistan.
The seeds of hatred were sown between the religious communities as back as 1905, when the state of Bengal was divided into two, demarcating the Muslim and Hindu dominated areas by ( then) Viceroy of India, Lord Curzon.

This ambience of extreme dislike between the two communities, leading to the formation of Muslim League, that fought for the rights of the Muslim community
Though the partition was reversed in 1911, it had nevertheless succeeded in distancing the two communities
The colonial empire in India generally pitted the Muslim League and the Hindu dominated Indian National Congress against each other, worsening the condition
Muslim League leader, Muhammad Ali Jinnah started campaigning for a separate Muslim state
With independence around the corner, the Muslim League declared a "Direct Action Day" on 16 August 1946, in which the Muslims massacred thousands of Hindus and Sikhs. The violence spread to other parts of the country wherein people of both the religions were targeted and killed.
On the eve of the independence of the country, the leaders of the two communities could not come to terms for living in a unified country and hence the country was partitioned into two. 

Answer 2

HERE IS YOUR ANSWER MATE:-

There were several reasons for the birth of a seperate muslim homeland in the sub-continent,and all three parties-the Britishers, the Congress and the Muslim league- were responsible. As colonizers, the British had followed divide and rule policy in India. one more factor was that Mohammad Ali jinna demanded for a seperate muslim country because he said that muslims can't live in this country.
