What led to the decision for the creation of Pakistan?

Political competition between the Congress and the Muslim League

The partition of India refers to the division of British India into two separate nations: India and Pakistan. It occurred in 1947, following the end of British colonial rule in the Indian subcontinent. The partition was primarily based on religious lines, with the creation of a separate Muslim-majority state, Pakistan, to address the demands of the Muslim League for a separate homeland.

Causes of the Partition:
1)British 'Divide and Rule' Policy:
2)Two-Nation Theory:
3)Communal tensions:
4)Violence and Communal Riots:
5)Failure of Power-Sharing:
The Indian National Congress and the All-India Muslim League couldn't reach a consensus on power-sharing and minority rights.
This failure deepened the divide between the two communities.
