 Cabinet Mission Plan 1946 

Q. Explain why was cabinet Mission sent to India and how it helped in Independence. 

       British had won the second

 World War in 1945 but their hold on the Sub-Continent was constantly reducing. They tried to achieve the cooperation of Indian politicians to help them rule the country but all in vain. Indians believed that if they were not going to cooperate with the British government British would have to leave India as their controlling resources had worn out during the second World War.

 The belief of Indians proved correct when British declared in Cabinate Mission that they were going to divide India in to three parts like the  Hindu majority territories,  the western Muslim provinces and separate Bengal and Assam giving these under Indians  control locally. Center was to be ruled by Indian Union. It still did not mention that there would be separate Muslim country Pakistan which was a matter of concern for Muslims.
