Question : Which was the main cause for starting of the Quit India Movement in 1942 ?
Option 1: Severe unrest among the people
Option 2: Report of Simon Commission
Option 3: Failure of the Cripps Mission
Option 4: British involved in the World War II
Correct Answer: Failure of the Cripps Mission
Solution : The correct option is Failure of the Cripps Mission.
The failure of the Cripps Mission was a crucial factor in sparking the Quit India Movement. The mission's proposals fell short of Indian nationalist expectations, particularly in terms of providing a concrete plan for immediate independence. This dissatisfaction led to the adoption of the Quit India Resolution by the All India Congress Committee, under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi, on August 8, 1942. This resolution called for the immediate withdrawal of British colonial rule from India, which in turn led to widespread civil disobedience and nonviolent resistance across the country.
