The last opportunity to avoid the partition of India was lost with the rejection of:
- Cripps Mission
- Rajagopalachari Formula
- Cabinet Mission
- Wavell Plan
Explanation
Option (c) is correct
- The Cabinet Mission Plan was the last major attempt to preserve a united India through a federal arrangement in which the Union would control only defence, foreign affairs, and communications, while provinces retained wide autonomy. Its failure and rejection by the major political parties ended the possibility of a negotiated united India and made partition increasingly inevitable.
