Question

why did the people protest against Simon commission ? please answer it fast

Answer 1

From global people point of opinion...

The Simon Commission was opposed essentially because it did not have any Indian representation in the assemblage. The government Of Britain had appointed this Commission on November 1927. The goal of the Simon Commission was to give an account of how the Indian constitution was working.

It was an ‘all-white’ commission,that is to say,no representation of any Indian in the ‘Simon Seven’.Reasons being to avoid any ‘bias’ and ‘incompetency’.Naturally,protests started.


Secondly,at that time,Indians were all ‘charged-up’ and they wanted nothing less than complete freedom from the British yoke but Simon Commission again talked about ‘dominion-status’.So,ultimately,it was boycotted.
