Solution
The Wavell Plan was drawn up in June 1945 by the then Viceroy of India, Lord Wavell. Among the different provisions in the plan, one provision stated that in central and provincial legislatures, Muslims, Dalits and minorities should be given proper representation and there should be an equal number of Hindu and Muslim members in Viceroy’s Executive Council. Barrister Jinnah was of the opinion that the Muslim League should have the right to suggest the names of Muslim representatives to the Viceroy's Executive Council and this was opposed by the Congress, which stated that it would give the Muslim League too much independence. This caused the failure of the Wavell Plan.
