What was the reaction of the Congress to the Cabinet Mission proposals?

The Congress accepted the Cabinet Mission Plan with reservations.

1. It only accepted that part of the scheme which dealt with the Constitution-making.
2. It considered the Constituent Assembly as a sovereign body for drafting the Constitution. It regarded the grouping of the Provinces as optional and not compulsory.
3. The Congress rejected the scheme of Interim Government because of its limited status and powers and also because the Congress was given parity with the Muslim League in the formation of the Provisional Government.
