British left India, because their Economy stumbled and civil unrest due to the WW1 and WW2. The Quit India Movement, Do or Die, Gandhi’s Disobedience movement etc were just a joke for British. The Free India was under control of Congress which publicized that Gandhi’s effort had made it and made him “Father of the Nation – India”, whereas in fact it should have been Father of Pakistan.
Untill 1947 the present India was British India colony + 600 odd Princely States. After that British colony was divided and Princely states were merged to for the current India. This is the major reason will still have problems between current political states and people.

India didn’t independence from Quit India movement. Infact the only reason India didn’t get independence earlier than 1947 was because of Gandhi who was used a pawn by Britishers to keep control of Indians in India. India got independence only after the effect of WW2 on British Raj. It was ordered by Queen to leave countries that they have overtaken and to do so in a systematic matter. If WW2 wouldn’t have happened, India would still have been under British Raj this day.

It is interesting and disturbing that you do not include “Krantikaarees” in your list of how India achieved independence. People like Bhagat Singh, Rajguru and Sukhdev, who gave there lives for the country. Hindu, Muslim and Sikh alike, all gave there live (majority being Sikh). Why may I ask do you not mention there sacrifice?
