Solution
In the Second Round Table Conference, many socially backwards depressed classes demanded separate electorates. Apart from them, separate electorates were also demanded by the Indian Christians, Muslims and Anglo Indians. The question of granting of dominion status receded into the background. As the government refused to give dominion status to India, Gandhi returned to India and restarted the Civil Disobedience Movement in India.
