Q. Mountbatten Plan (June 1947) provided for a referendum in which of the following province?
Answer: North-West Frontier Province
Notes: Under the Mountbatten Plan, the Legislative Assembly of Sind had to decide at a special meeting whether Sind as a whole should join the Constituent Assembly at Delhi or a new Constituent Assembly of areas which did not join it. Referendum was to be held in the N.W.F. Province to decide whether that province would like to join Pakistan or India. However, referendum was to be conducted under the aegis of the Governor-provincial government. Baluchistan was also given the right to decide whether or not to remain in the Indian Union.
