CRIPPS PROPOSAL
YEAR 1942
PM: Churchill
Indian support for the World War II.
Indian nationalists had agreed to support the Allied on a condition that substantial power was transferred immediately and complete independence would be given after the war.
Main proposals of the mission
An Indian Union with a dominion status would be set up; it would be free to decide its relations with the Commonwealth and free to participate in the United Nations and other international bodies.
The British government would accept the new constitution subject to two conditions: (i) any province not willing to join the Union could have a separate constitution and form a separate Union, and (ii) the new constitution-making body and the British government would negotiate a treaty to effect the transfer of power and to safeguard racial and religious minorities.
In the meantime, defence of India would remain in British hands and the Governor-General’s powers would remain intact.
