What caused britain to begin considering india’s desire for independence?

Britain was really struggling with controlling India- it was taking up its finances. Their struggle to keep control was made worse bad for two reasons: it was the time after the second World War, when the whole Europe struggled financially, and the strain on Britain was extra hard as Indians were employing their nonviolent resistance (led by Mahatma Gandhi). Additionally, the relationship between Muslims and Hindus was becoming really tense: Britain wanted to get out before riots break out (which they eventually did).
