In 1948 It became a separate British colony, gaining its own
independence.
Conclusion:
Colonialism has had a long lasting impact on people lives. Countries under
colonial rule experience a distinctly separate way of developing and maturing, and
ultimately, the inheritance of subsistence will continue to affect survival and
performance.
When British Colonial rule ended in August 1947, two new countries were born
India and Pakistan. Bengal was split between them. West Bengal went to India and
East Bengal went to Pakistan. East Bengal was known as East Pakistan. The
British Colonial Rule ended for India but the Bengali nation did not become
independent because of Pakistan.
