Answer 2

Answer:

Option D – India should be given Dominion status.

Explanation:

Sir Stafford Cripps (1889 – 1952) was a British, Labour party politician, who was appointed by the British government to broker a deal with Indian politicians and political parties in 1942. The deal put forward by the them was India’s support for the British, during the World War II. In return, it would enable elections and Dominion status once the war was over.

But this attempt, known as the Cripps Mission, was a total failure as the Indians did not agree to it.
