Answer
The Congress leaders demanded that India must be declared free or at least have effective power before it could actively support Britain during the Second World War. Lord Linlithgow, the Viceroy, could not give any such assurance.
The British government tried to put the religious minorities and Princes against the Congress. The Congress, therefore, asked its ministries to resign.
