Answer 1

The British government constituted a Statutory Commission under Sir John Simon. The commission was made to look into the functioning of the constitutional system in India and suggest changes. But since all the members in the commission were British , the Indian leaders opposed the commission. The Simon Commission arrived in India in 1928. It was greeted with the slogan ‘Go back Simon'.

Answer 2

✴✴Simon Commission✴✴
--------------------------------------------------
The Simon Commission was an attempt by the British Government to stave off more radical constitutional reform in its governance of India. For a number of years, successive British governments had gradually reformed the administration of India to give the indigenous population a greater say in how they were governed. The Seven British MPs Who made the Simon Commission were sent to India to check on the progress of the constitutional reform program instigated by the Government of India Act 1919.


▶The Main problem with the Simon Commission was that there were no Indians serving on it. Furthermore, most Indians wanted an end to British rule.
They didn't want what they considered little more than constitutional window-dressing. But as the remit of the Simon Commission was necessarily narrow—an end to British rule was simply not on its agenda--it was inevitable that nationalist sentiments in India would look upon its work as simply a delaying tactic to postpone the necessary measures needed to give India its full independence.
