18 Why is the failure of the Cripps Mission considered a turning point in the Indian freedom movement?
0 reads0 helpful★ – (0)
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: A. It reduced chances of wartime compromise and formed the background to Quit India
Explanation: Direct answer: Option A is correct. The Cripps Mission came in 1942 during the Second World War to discuss India’s constitutional and political future, but its proposals did not satisfy Indian leaders. It did not provide the immediate, clear transfer of power that many Indians wanted, and important disagreements remained over the timing and structure of self-government. Its failure reduced confidence in a wartime settlement with the British government and increased political frustration. This helped create the background for the Quit India Movement, launched later in 1942. Option A correctly describes this historical significance. Option B is wrong because India did not become fully independent in 1942; independence came in 1947. Option C is wrong because the mission did not hand India to Japan. Option D is wrong because the United Nations was established after the war, in 1945, and was not created by the Cripps Mission. Exam cue: Cripps Mission failure in 1942 preceded Quit India in 1942; do not confuse it with independence in 1947.
