Comments
Explanation:

  • The Partition of Bengal (1905) was carried out by Lord Curzon to divide Bengal into two provinces: East Bengal (Muslim majority) and West Bengal (Hindu majority).
  • The decision faced massive opposition, particularly from the Hindu nationalist movements.
  • Due to continuous protests and the Swadeshi Movement, the British government reversed the partition.
  • On December 12, 1911, during the Delhi Durbar, King George V announced the annulment of the partition.
  • As a result, Bengal was reunited in 1912, and the capital of British India was shifted from Calcutta to Delhi.
