Enclosing below, ' excerpts ' from the book - " History of the Freedom Movement in India - Vol 3 " by Dr. R.C. Majumdar [ probably the finest Indian historian unlike our 'Eminent Historians' of the JNU / AMU variety!! ]

- - - - -. The views expressed above in the first edition of this volume published in 1963 have since been fully confirmed. We are now in a position to assert with confidence that the formation of the INA [ Indian National Army ] was one of the major grounds for the decision of the British Government ot quit India. This was admitted by no less a person than Clement Attlee, the head of the British Government which conceived the idea of granting freedom to India and carried out the decision in spite of opposition of the die-hard Conservatives like Churchill. This is proved by the (English translation of the) following extract of a letter written in Bengali by Shri P.B. Chakravarti, ex-Chief Justice of the High Court, Calcutta, on 30-03-'76. " When I was acting as Governor of West Bengal (in 1956) Lord Attlee, who gave India freedom by putting an end to British rule, visited India and stayed in the Raj Bhavan, Calcutta, for two days. I had then a long talk with him about the real grounds for the voluntary withdrawal of the British from India. I put it straight to him like this:
 
 
" The Quit India Movement of Gandhi practically died out long before 1947 and there was nothing in the Indian situation at that time which made it necessary for the British to leave India in a hurry. Why then did they do so?"
 
In reply Attlee cited several reasons, the most important of which were the activities of Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose which weakened the very foundation of the attachment of the Indian land and naval forces to the British Government. Towards the end I asked Lord Attlee about the extent to which the British decision to quit India was influenced by Gandhi's activities.
 
On hearing this question, Attlee's lips widened in a smile of disdain and he uttered, slowly, putting emphasis on each single letter - ' MI-NI-MAL '.
