A
Analyse the functioning of constitutional system in India
💡 Explanation:
In November 1927, the British appointed Simon commission to investigate the need for further constitutional reforms. The Commission composed of seven British members of Parliament. It had no Indian members. This was seen as a violation of the principle of self-determination and a deliberate insult to the self-respect of the Indians.
