CORRECTION in the incorrect statements:
Statement (B): In 1939, Congress Ministries joined the Government.
Correction: In 1935 a new Government of India Act promised some form of representative government. Two years later, in an election held on the basis of a restricted franchise, the Congress won a comprehensive victory. Now eight out of 11 provinces had a Congress “Prime Minister”, working under the supervision of a British Governor. In September 1939, two years after the Congress ministries assumed office, the Second World War broke out. Mahatma Gandhi and Jawaharlal Nehru had both been strongly critical of Hitler and the Nazis. Accordingly, they promised Congress support to the war effort if the British, in return, promised to grant India independence once hostilities ended. The offer was refused. In protest, the Congress ministries resigned in October 1939.
Statement (D): In 1929, Civil Disobedience Movement started with the breaking of the salt law from Bardoli.
Correction: In 1930, Civil Disobedience Movement started with the breaking of the salt law in Dandi Coast in Gujarat.
Statement (E): Quit India Movement began in 1941.
Correction: Quit India Movement began in 1942 not 1941. |
