Answer

The entry of Japan in Second World War was a cause of great worry for Britain, USA and China. The war had come to the border of India and the efficient defence of India needed the fullest cooperation of the people of the country. The British Prime Minister, Mr. Churchill was still not showing any eagerness to reach an agreement with Indian leaders. Then came the pressure of the President of USA. The result was that Sir Stafford Cripps, a member of the British War Cabinet, was sent to India to solve the Indian problem.
