Maharaja was not dithering ! There was no obligation under Indian Independence Act 1947 any of the Indian Rulers to accede to either of the new dominions of the British Empire! Maharaja's position was quite unique unlike others as he was a Hindu Ruler with a majority of his subjects being Muslims. It was the Indian leaders who dithered in sending support to the Maharaja till he agreed to sign the Instrument of accession. soon they ditched him by sending him to oblivion to placate Abdulla.

Unfortunately, I gather that Maharajah Sir Hari Singh's lasting legacy was his ill-starred attempt to maintain J&K's independence during Partition without possessing the military means to enforce it as Pakistan sent in tribal subversives to loot and pillage, leading to the Mutiny of October, 1947. His fatal dithering before casting his lot with India has been blamed for leading to the first Indo-Pak war and J&K's traumatic division.
