Question:

In which year did Lord Curzon order the partition of Bengal?

Options:

1905

1930

1945

1915

Correct Answer:

1905

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option 1- 1905

Lord Curzon ordered the partition of Bengal in 1905.

The partition was a highly controversial move, and it sparked widespread protests across India. The protests led to the formation of the All-India Muslim League in 1906, and they also contributed to the growth of the Indian independence movement.

The partition of Bengal was eventually reversed in 1911, but the damage had already been done. The partition had sowed the seeds of communalism in India, and it had also strengthened the resolve of the nationalists to achieve independence.

The partition of Bengal is a significant event in Indian history. It is a reminder of the British colonial government's attempts to divide and weaken the Indian people. It is also a reminder of the Indian people's resilience and their determination to achieve freedom.
