Simon Commission
Simon Commission
Simon Commission: In 1927, the British (Lord Birkenhead was the Secretary of State) decided to appoint a commission to recommend further Constitutional reforms. The Indian protest was on the grounds that the commission headed by Sir John Simon was an "all white" commission Lord Birkenhead constantly talked of the inability of Indians to arrive at any consensus and that the British did not find any one from among the Indians fit enough to serve in a body that would make recommendation about India's political future. The commission's arrival in India led to a powerful protest movement in which nationalist enthusiasm and unity reached new heights. On 3rd February, the commission was greeted with hartals and black flag demonstrations. They could not carry with on with their coalition partners because of conflicting ideas.
The Indian Statutory Commission also known as Simon Commission, was a group of seven Members of Parliament under the chairmanship of Sir John Simon. The commission arrived in British India in 1928 to study constitutional reform in Britain's largest and most important possession. One of its members was the future leader of the Labour Party Clement Attlee, who became committed to self-government for India.
At the time of introducing of Montagu-Chelmsford Reforms in 1919, the British Government declared that a commission would be sent to India after ten years to examine the effects and operations of the constitutional reforms and to suggest more reforms for India.
