Answer

Two reasons for the acceptance of the Mountbatten Plan were:

  1. Large scale communal riots engulfed the whole country. The only solution to the communal problem was the Partition of India.
  2. The only alternative to Partition was a Federation with a weak centre. A smaller India with a strong central authority was better than a bigger state with a weak centre.
