Simon Go Back”: 75 Years On
Routine scholarship sometimes fails to capture the thrill of critical moments.The “Simon Go Back” agitation of 1928 is a case in point. It was the first all-Indiastruggle after the non-cooperation movement of the early twenties. In
November1927 the British appointed the “Indian Statutory Commission”, headed by JohnSimon. Britain had been unwilling to make a commitment on India’sConstitutional advance. The people had had enough and were irked by theCommission, its exclusively British composition and the manner of its appointment.The Commission was to inquire into the “ working of the system of Government,the growth of education and the development of representative institutions andmatters connected therewith” . The terms of reference were provocative: it was toreport on “whether and to what extent it is desirable to establish the principle of Responsible Government or to extend , modify
or restrict
the degree of ResponsibleGovernment”.

Answer:
I was a Movement held by the Indians
Explanation:
In November 1927, British Government announced the appointment of a Royal Commission headed by Sir John Simon, to report on the working of the constitutional reforms of 1919, and on the possibilities of further advance towards self-government. The commission included representatives of the British political parties, but no Indian. And thus, Indians started a movement, by showing black flag to him and saying "Simon, Go BACK!"
