The outcome of the Indian Independence Act of 1947 was the partition of British India into two independent dominions, India and Pakistan. This act marked the end of British colonial rule, granting self-governance to both nations. However, it led to widespread communal violence, mass migrations, and significant loss of life as millions of people crossed borders based on religious lines. The partition established a complex relationship between India and Pakistan, impacting regional politics and leading to ongoing tensions over issues such as the Kashmir conflict.
