In this Extended Essay, the 1948 ‘hidden’ massacre of Hyderabad State was explored with the research question: Bloodless Revolution or a Bloody Massacre, What really happened in Hyderabad in 1948? Details of the annexation of Hyderabad State to the Union of India had been concealed until 2013 when the Sunderlal Committee Report was released to the public. The report indicated that a vast number of Muslims had been killed during and after the takeover, more than previously believed; tens of thousands more civilians died than troops in the small-scale war that annexed Hyderabad. The most prevalent information available was that during the Indian Army’s assault, Muslim denizens were caught in the crossfire.
The main doubt concerning the research question was: what exactly happened and who was responsible for this undocumented, rumoured mayhem that occurred before, during and after the integration of the Princely State of Hyderabad. Along with the Sunderlal Report the event was investigated by collating a large number of literary sources, from online articles and historians’ books. With perseverance, a primary source was found who was willing to give an interview, providing a personal account. After reviewing over 100 sources including the Sunderlal Report, much was deduced about what actually occurred. All angles were considered and evaluated: political issues, social unrest, communism and the Partition of India-Pakistan.
Thus the conclusion reached, in accordance with the Sunderlal Report, was that Hyderabad’s incorporation into the Union of India was not bloodless at all, not a massacre, but the civil war, which followed saw loss on both sides as power shifted. Actions taken in the judicial system were not as fair as they were necessary, in order to maintain peace in the subcontinent at the time. Furthermore, the concealment of the report was ethically wrong but a necessary evil.

The aim of this experiment is to measure the difference in time taken for shape recognition, both congruent and incongruent. The hypothesis predicted that incongruent words would take longer to name than congruent ones based on previous research by Stroop (1935) in his experiment with colours. The Dependent Variable was the time taken in seconds and the Independent variable was the type of stimulus (shapes or words). A total of 20 participants picked using invitational and stratified sampling were given four lists (Tests 1, 2, 3 and 4) each of 100 stimuli. In the last two tests (3 and 4) there were shapes written as words enclosed in geometrical shapes, congruent in Test 3 and incongruent in Test 4.  The first two tests were just for reference as a control but the last two showed the effect between the times of congruent and incongruent shape stimuli. An ANOVA Test was used to see whether the mean times were influenced by chance or were really significant. The results showed that there was a large difference between the critical value and F, which supported the hypothesis that incongruent, would take longer than congruent. This supported the Automatic Word Recognition Hypothesis.
