Explanation:

On 27 August 1947, B. Pocker Bahadur from Madras made a powerful plea for continuing separate electorates.

Hansa Mehta of Bombay demanded justice for women, not reserved seats, or separate electorates.

When Swami Vivekananda campaigned for a reform of Hinduism, he wanted religions to become more just. When Jyotiba Phule in Maharashtra pointed to the suffering of the depressed castes, or Communists and Socialists organised workers and peasants, they were demanding economic and social justice. The national movement against a government that was seen as oppressive and illegitimate was inevitably a struggle for democracy and justice, for citizens’ rights and equality.

Sir A. Ramaswamy Mudaliar from Mysore said during the debate on 21 August 1947: Let us not lay the flattering unction to our soul that we are better patriots if we propose a strong Centre and that those who advocate a more vigorous examination of these resources are people with not enough of national spirit or patriotism.
