Independence of India -Not a gift

The lecture delivered Stafford Cripps on 5th March 1947 in British Parliament reveals the actual truth of transferring Power to Divided India.  Cripps said;
"What alternatives we had in our disposal ? Practically there were two alternatives - one, to tren then British Secretariat of India by increasing men and military and rule over the country and we could continue for another twenty years rule in India. Secondly, we have to confess that the first alternative is totally impossible.
Hence there is only one possibility and it was not possible to strengthen the British Military to rule over India.
