Question

(A): The Cripps Mission proposed that India would be given a Dominion Status after the end of the Second World War.

(R): The Cripps Mission failed to fulfil its promise after the Second World War.

विकल्प

• (R) contradicts (A).

• (R) is the reason for (A).

• (A) is true but (R) is false.

• (A) and (R) are independent of each other.

Answer 1

(A) is true but (R) is false.

Explanation:

The Cripps Mission (April 1942) did propose that India be granted Dominion status after the Second World War. However, the Reason’s wording is incorrect: the Mission’s proposals were rejected by Indian parties and the Mission failed in 1942 itself, so it did not have a promise that was simply “left unfulfilled after the Second World War.” In short, A is correct about the proposal, but R’s claim is false/misleading.
