why did the Congress became ready for the partition of the country
Answers
Answer:
There are 9 reasons but depends on you that how many reasons you want .
Explanation:
They are :-
- The Congress was only accepting the inevitable due to its failure over the years to bring the Muslim masses into the nationalist mainstream.
- This was also due to congress failure to stem the surging waves of Muslim communalism, especially, since 1937. This failure was evident from results on 1946 elections in which Muslim League won 90 per cent of Muslim seats.
- However, the point of no return was reached a year later when the battle for Pakistan was no longer confined to the ballot box but came to be fought on the streets.
- While the congress leaders were adamant on not surrendering to the blackmail of violence, they finally accepted Partition most of all because they could not stop communal riots.
- By June 1947, the Congress leaders had realized that only an immediate transfer of power could check the menace of the communal violence which was spreading quickly due to the Muslim League s call for Direct Action.
- Immediate transfer of power would at least mean the setting up of a government which could exercise the control it was now expected to wield, but was powerless to exercise.
- The breakdown of the Interim Government only confirmed the inevitability of Pakistan. The congress leaders were dismayed at the turning of the Interim Government into an arena of struggle.
- Another consideration in accepting partition was that it firmly ruled out the specter of the 'balkanisation' of the country. The partition plan laid out by Lord Mountbatten had ruled out independence of the princely states which would have had the prospect of balkanisation of the country.
- Princely states standing out would have meant a graver blow to Indian unity than Pakistan was.
