What was the main reason for the protest against the Simon Commission in 1928?
1928 में साइमन कमीशन के खिलाफ विरोध का मुख्य कारण क्या था?
Detailed Solution & Logic
Lack of Indian representation / भारतीय प्रतिनिधित्व की कमी
🟢 Explanation
The Simon Commission was appointed by the British government in 1927 to review constitutional reforms in India.
However, the commission had no Indian members, which angered Indian leaders and the public. Indians believed that decisions about India should include Indian participation.
As a result, widespread protests were organized across the country with the slogan “Simon Go Back.”
🟢 व्याख्या
साइमन कमीशन की स्थापना 1927 में ब्रिटिश सरकार ने भारत में संवैधानिक सुधारों की समीक्षा के लिए की थी।
लेकिन इस आयोग में एक भी भारतीय सदस्य शामिल नहीं था, जिससे भारतीय नेताओं और जनता में भारी असंतोष फैल गया। लोगों का मानना था कि भारत से जुड़े निर्णयों में भारतीयों की भागीदारी आवश्यक है।
इसी कारण पूरे देश में “Simon Go Back” के नारे के साथ विरोध प्रदर्शन हुए।
