Solution
The Simon Commission submitted its report on 27th May, 1930. The National leaders were not at all happy over the report. The Commission proposed only a limited transfer of power to the provinces and that too with so many restrictions. The major political parties totally rejected the
proposals made by the Commission. The nationalists wanted the immediate setting up of fully responsible Governments, both at the Centre and in the Provinces. This Commission’s report, in fact, became a turning point in India’s struggle for freedom. The Indians expressed their discontent by starting Civil Disobedience Movement, another weapon against the British imperialism, no less than the Non-Cooperation Movement. The Nehru Report was its reaction in which the Indians demanded Poorna Swaraj.
