Quit India Movement
The failure of the Cripps Mission and the effects of World War II created widespread

discontentment in India. This led Gandhiji to launch a movement calling for complete

withdrawal of the British from India. The Congress Working Committee, in its meeting in

Wardha on 14 July 1942, passed the historic ‘Quit India’ resolution demanding the

immediate transfer of power to Indians and quit India. On 8 August 1942 in Bombay, the

All India Congress Committee endorsed the resolution which called for a non-violent mass

struggle on the widest possible scale throughout the country. It was on this occasion that

Gandhiji delivered the famous ‘Do or Die’ speech. The call for ‘Quit India’ almost

brought the state machinery to a standstill in large parts of the country as people

voluntarily threw themselves into the thick of the movement. People observed hartals, and

demonstrations and processions were accompanied by national songs and slogans. The

movement was truly a mass movement which brought into its ambit thousands of

ordinary people, namely students, workers and peasants. It also saw the active

participation of leaders, namely, Jayprakash Narayan, Aruna Asaf Ali and Ram Manohar

Lohia and many women such as Matangini Hazra in Bengal, Kanaklata Barua in Assam

and Rama Devi in Odisha.
