The Communal Award was made by the British prime minister Ramsay MacDonald on 16 August 1932 and it extended separate electorate. The Communal Award also known as MacDonald Award was announced after Round Table Conference (1930–32) and extended the separate electorate to depressed Classes (now known as the Scheduled Caste) and other minorities.[1] The separate electorate was introduced in [Indian council Act 1909] for Muslims[2] and extended to Sikhs, Indian Christians, Anglo-Indians and Europeans by Government of India Act 1919.[3]

The separate electorate was now available to the Forward Caste, Muslims, Buddhists, Sikhs, Indian Christians, Anglo-Indians, Europeans and Depressed Classes (now known as the Scheduled Caste) etc. The principle of weightage was also applied.[4] Sir Samuel Hoare asked for clarification of the ninth and last paragraph that applied directly to the Depressed Classes. The Award favoured the minorities over the Hindus causing consternation and eliciting anger from Gandhi.[5] From the fastness of Yervada Jail he made contact with the Cabinet in London declaring on 4 January 1933 an open fast until death.
