(c) Neville Chamberlain<\/p>\n\n\n\n
(d) Winston Churchill<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Ans: (d) Winston Churchill<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The correct answer is (d) Winston Churchill.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Explanation:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Winston Churchill, who served as the Prime Minister of the United Kingdom from 1940 to 1945 and again from 1951 to 1955, sent the Cripps Mission to India.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The Cripps Mission, officially known as the Cabinet Mission, was dispatched to India in March 1942 during World War II. The mission was led by Sir Stafford Cripps, a prominent British politician, and aimed to negotiate a political settlement between the Indian National Congress and the British government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The mission proposed the creation of a framework for a future independent Indian state and offered certain provisions for self-government. However, it fell short of meeting the demands of the Indian National Congress for immediate independence and self-rule.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Winston Churchill, as the Prime Minister at the time, authorized the sending of the Cripps Mission to India. However, the mission ultimately failed to achieve a consensus between the Congress and the British government, leading to further tensions and struggles in the Indian independence movement.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
