Why was the Simon Commission, sent by the British government to look into the working of the constitutional system in India, greeted with the slogan ‘Go back, Simon’?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 4
The correct answer is Option (4) → It did not have a single Indian member
The Statutory Commission under Sir John Simon was to decide India's constitutional future, yet all its members were British. So both the Congress and the Muslim League boycotted it when it arrived in 1928.
