What to Focus On

  • The national movement faced a vacuum after the suspension of Non-Cooperation.
  • Two different approaches emerged inside Congress.
  • Communal tensions and scattered revolutionary activities shaped the atmosphere.

  • Simon Commission was appointed in November 1927.
  • It had no Indian members and was therefore boycotted.
  • Congress decided to boycott it at Madras in 1927.

  • The Nehru Report was drafted after the Lucknow All-Parties Conference in August 1928.
  • Motilal Nehru headed the committee.
  • The report demanded Dominion Status, not complete independence.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

The Nehru Report demanded complete independence for India.

The Simon Commission was boycotted mainly because of its recommendations.

The Pro-Changers and No-Changers had the same strategy.
