Direct answer: Option A, communal tension and fear of Partition increased. Direct Action Day was called by the Muslim League on 16 August 1946 to press its political demand. The day witnessed serious communal violence, especially in Calcutta. This violence deepened mistrust between communities and made agreement between the Congress and the Muslim League more difficult. It therefore strengthened the background in which Partition became more likely. Option A is correct because it states this immediate political effect. Option B is wrong: the Swadeshi Movement began in 1905 in opposition to the partition of Bengal, not in 1946. Option C is wrong: India became a republic on 26 January 1950, not immediately after Direct Action Day. Option D is wrong: the Indian National Congress was founded in 1885. Memory cue: Direct Action Day means 1946 violence, communal tension and a stronger Partition background.
Direct answer: Option A, Indian leaders got participation in central administration. The Interim Government of 1946 was formed during the final phase of British rule, before independence. It allowed important Indian leaders to take part in running the central administration and gave them practical experience of governing. Jawaharlal Nehru headed the Executive Council and functioned as the leading member. Step by step, British rule was nearing its end, Indian leaders entered the central government, and this helped prepare the way for transfer of power. Option A states this significance. Option B is wrong because Company rule had ended long before and was not restarted. Option C is wrong because the Salt Law belonged to the earlier colonial period and was challenged during the Civil Disobedience Movement. Option D is wrong because the Swadeshi Movement was not ended by the Interim Government. Memory cue: Interim Government = temporary central administration before independence, linked with 1946 and Nehru.
The Mountbatten Plan was linked with transfer of power in 1947. Exam tip is to connect it with Partition and independence.
The direct answer is A: displacement of millions and a refugee problem. The Radcliffe Line was drawn in 1947 to divide British India into parts of India and Pakistan, especially Punjab and Bengal. The line divided villages, homes, farms, roads and families. Because people feared violence or found themselves on the opposite side of the new border, millions crossed the boundary. They lost homes and property and needed food, shelter, medical help and rehabilitation. A is correct because mass migration and the refugee crisis were major human consequences of Partition. B is wrong because the salt tax belonged to an earlier colonial policy and was not caused by the Radcliffe Line. C is wrong because the Congress was founded in 1885. D is wrong because the Surat Split occurred in 1907. Exam cue: a new political border can create forced migration and refugee problems.
