Its stupid but honestly, india would have done better if there was a gradual transition of power of the entire Raj, and no partition.
The poor transition of power, the utter economy and sociality destroying mess of the partition snd the competition of a billion political groups which quickly became grifts, and a poorly devised socialist government in a non industry country led to the corrupt, cartel protectionist, illeterate shithole we are today...
Also being a first rate member of the angloworld would have been good when the muricanos were dominating everything.
I guess ideally, the mughals wont have had that zealot aurangzebh and the persian invasions or the marathas establish a functional empire which the british don't conquer, a native polity would have led to better trade and less exploitation and bejng forced into anglo values.
But after the anglo colonialism the way the reins were taken and the whole partition business just left all parts worse off
