Explanation

The August Offer of 1940 was the first official British proposal for a Constituent Assembly to draft India's constitution. Viceroy Linlithgow announced that after WWII, a representative body would frame India's constitution. The Cripps Mission (1942) expanded this but failed. August Offer was the first authoritative British commitment.
