Question 7. Congress Ministries resigned in _________ (a) Oct. 1937 (b) Sept. 1938 (c) Sept 1940 (d) Oct. 1939
Correct option is D) All Congress ministries resigned in October 1939. When World War II started in 1939 , the British were fighting against the Axis Powers. The Viceroy of India annouced India's involvement without consulting its representative political leaders. Congress asked for transfer of power in repayment of their cooperation in war , which the British government denied. As a result , Congress ministries resigned. Thus came to an end the nightmarish rule which had terrorized Muslim community beyond imagination. Quaid - i - Azam asked the Muslims to observe it as a 'Day of Deliverance' with peace and without any harmful intent towards any other nation.
