Have you ever heard of any assembly meeting in the middle of the night? Many people do not know the reason behind this midnight assembly. Lord Mountbatten consulted astrologers enquiring as to when would be the most inauspicious time to proceed with something. The astrologers informed him that the
most inauspicious time would commence at 11:00 pm on the 14
th August 1947 and would end at 02:00 am on the 15
th August. Anything done during this period would be extremely detrimental to anyone or anything. And this is exactly what happened.
