Answer 1

Answer:

3) the Muslim -Hindu riots and violence

Explanation:

Once it was decided that India should be granted independence everyone seemed happy and excited about it, but they were not aware that the country was going to be partitioned. India was partitioned into two nations, India and Pakistan (West and East), based on the dominant religion. The reason for the partition was to avoid conflicts between the two groups, but they occurred nonetheless immediately after the independence.

Millions of people were dislocated, lost their homes and families, or lost their lives.
