Explanation

The Gandhi-Irwin Pact (March 1931) was signed just before the scheduled execution of Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev, and Rajguru (March 23, 1931). Revolutionaries and younger leaders like Bose and Nehru opposed the pact because they felt Gandhi should have pressed for commutation of their death sentences as part of the agreement. Jallianwala Bagh (1919), Simon Commission (1928-29), and Communal Representation were separate issues not directly tied to the timing of this pact.
