The decision to reverse the partition of Bengal was made in 1911. This was during Lord Hardinge’s tenure. On the 12th of December 1911, at the Delhi Durbar, King George V declared that the partition of 1905 was to be revoked. This was to bring an end to the rising political unrest and the Swadeshi movement that had ensued because of the partition. It was also decided that the capital of British India was to be shifted from Calcutta to Delhi.
