Which of the following developments in the period after 1945 could most directly used as evidence to challenge the author's assertion regarding the effects of British rule in India in the first two paragraphs?

After achieving independence, India remained economically tied to Great Britain by joining the British Commonwealth of Nations.

Great Britain’s divide-and-rule strategy in India deepened religious tensions, leading to a partition of India that resulted in millions of people dying or ending up as refugees.

After achieving its independence, India joined the Non-Aligned Movement, a group of nation-states that refused to side with either the United States or the Soviet Union during the Cold War.

Indian leaders adopted the policies of many other postcolonial states by using government resources and policy to guide economic development.

Answer explanation

Many migrants did move from colonies to metropoles following independence because they were attracted to their cultural, political, and economic systems. Indeed, many people migrated because they had worked with the colonial rulers in the former colony or wanted to attain degrees from Western universities.
