Answer:
According to the 1935 Government of India Act, British India's provincial elections were held in 1937.
Explanation:
According to the 1935 Government of India Act, British India's provincial elections were held in 1937. In 8 of the 11 provinces where elections were held, the Indian National Congress won.
Under the guidelines of the 1935 Government of India Act, provincial elections were held in 1937. Within the Congress, the Left-wing opposed running in the provincial elections. They claimed that participating in the elections would weaken their position and would require them to work with the oppressive government.
A post-election appointment would entail "responsibility without power."
Taking office would eliminate the movement's revolutionary nature.
