Question

How did the Provincial Groups form in the Cabinet Mission Plan?

Accepted Answer

Cabinet Mission Plan 1946:

In 1945, the Labor party came into power in Britain. Noticing the increasing political restlessness in India, the British Prime Minister, Lord Atlee sent a Cabinet Mission to India. This mission had two basic purposes.

The first purpose was to determine the Constitutional Status of India and the form of the Government.

The second purpose was to bridge the gap between the Muslims and the Hindus and try to convince the Muslims to live in United India. But the General Elections proved that it was quite impossible. The Commission consisted of three Ministers:

Sir Stafford Cripps
A.V. Alexander
Lord Pethick Lawrence

Since all the members to the British cabinet, it was called Cabinet Mission.
