- No way!!

- We have became a serious danger to the British, especially after taking over Delhi.
- It is your religious differences in the mutiny that complicated the chances of your unification, and this paved the way for the era of the British Raj!
- Your rebellion has come to an end!
- Cultivation of Cash Crops in the British Empire
- Besides, the greedy British has exploited much of our Indian lands for their cash crops that they considered the need of constructing canals!
- I am literally starving! I do not want to die from hunger like my brothers did.

- Yes sir!
- Louis Mountbatten Supervising the Partition of India
- The construction of railroads in India was purely a British strategy that provided a more efficient, developed trade, facilitating their approach of the subcontinent's interior resources. From the Indian perspective, however, they were introduced to this technological advancement that would increase the prices of the food crops, decreasing their buying power and increasing the famine rates.
- British Manipulation of Indian Resources to Ensure An Economic Advantage
- Mwahahaha! We will drain your economy, silly Indians! We target high-demand plantations in our trees selection, seeking profitable exported resources and an advantage in the international market of trade.

- Sir, you are assigned to divide India and create the new Islamic nation of "Pakistan" in about 40 days.
- Mr. Radcliffe, I have been speaking to you. Are you listening to me?
- India
- No it, surely, is not! It belongs to India only.
- Kashmir
- Dispersed in Kashmir, are our soldiers that will soon prove the Indian dominion and entitlement in any of the battles.
- We seek greater territorial power and Kashmir is within our boundaries, so we will not let it for anyone.
- It is our eastern territory!
- Pakistan
- It is frightful how sudden attacks are common to take place in Kashmir, with India and Pakistan striking to prove their dominance. It is all because of the British "Divide and Rule" policy that implanted hatred between Muslims and Hindus and ensured no chances of unity.
