उत्तर
Maharaja Hari Singh sought assistance from India because:
- In October 1947, armed tribesmen from Pakistan invaded Kashmir, creating chaos and threatening his rule.
- The state forces were unable to repel the invaders, and the situation became critical.
- To get military help from India, Hari Singh was advised to sign the Instrument of Accession, officially joining Kashmir with India.
Only after signing the accession did India send troops to defend Kashmir against the invasion.
