46 Cabinet Mission to India
The Cabinet Mission of 1946 came to Indiaaimed to discuss the transfer of power from the British government to the Indian leadership, with the aim of preserving India's unity and granting it independence. Formulated at the initiative of Clement Attlee, the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom, the mission had Lord Pethick-Lawrence, the Secretary of State for India, Sir Stafford Cripps, President of the Board of Trade, and A. V. Alexander, the First Lord of the Admiralty. Lord Wavell, the Viceroy of India, did not participate in every step but was present.
Background
PlanEdit
The mission made its own proposals, after inconclusive dialogue with the Indian leadership,[8] seeing that the Congress opposed Jinnah's demand for a Pakistan comprising six full provinces.[9] The mission proposed a complicated system for India with three tiers:[10] the provinces, provincial groupings and the centre.[11] The centre's power was to be confined to foreign affairs, defence,[12] currency[13] and communications.[14] The provinces would keep all the other powers and were allowed to establish three groups.[15] The plan's main characteristic was the grouping of provinces
