Indian Economy on The Eve of Independence
What was the impact of partition on agriculture at the time of independence?
India's agricultural production received a setback due to the country's partition at the time of independence. A sizeable portion of the undivided country's highly irrigated and fertile land went to Pakistan, which impacted inversely upon agricultural production. The whole of the jute-producing area became part of the East Pakistan (Now Bangladesh). India's jute industry suffered heavily for lack of raw materials.
