About this test

Simon Commission and Nehru Report Quiz Level 2: Modern Indian History Practice

Level 2 builds your ability to link causes, people and outcomes in the national movement, from the withdrawal of Non-Cooperation to the Lahore call for complete independence. It is an Aptitude360 Modern Indian History quiz on the Swarajists, the Simon Commission protests, the Nehru Report ultimatum, the HSRA and the Lahore Congress. Each question has a worked explanation.

What this Level 2 Modern History set tests

  • Aims of the Swaraj Party and its plan to enter the councils set up under the Government of India Act
  • The all-British Simon Commission, the 'Go back Simon' protests and the death of Lala Lajpat Rai
  • The Nehru Report and the one-year ultimatum to the British at the Calcutta session
  • Lord Irwin's vague offer of dominion status and a Round Table Conference
  • HSRA aims, the Saunders killing and the purpose stated in the Assembly bomb leaflet
  • Effect of the worldwide Depression on agricultural prices and peasants, and the Bardoli Satyagraha

Question types and concepts to prepare

  • Chronological ordering of events from the Simon Commission announcement to the executions of Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev and Rajguru
  • Match-the-list items pairing Congress sessions with their presidents and events with years
  • Odd-one-out and 'which event did not happen in this year' questions on the period
  • Why the choice of Jawaharlal Nehru as Lahore president signalled a younger, radical leadership

How to revise the Swaraj Party to Purna Swaraj years

  • Make a year-wise timeline and test yourself on sequences, not just single facts
  • Note who moved or opposed key resolutions, not only who presided
  • Contrast what each document or body demanded: council entry, dominion status or complete independence

Who Level 2 is meant for

It suits general awareness aspirants who already know the basic facts of this phase and want practice with the statement-based, matching and sequence formats used in competitive papers.

FAQs about Swaraj Party, Simon Commission, Nehru Report and Purna Swaraj – GK Quiz with Answers – Level 2

What was the main aim of the Swaraj Party?
The Swaraj Party wanted to contest elections to the provincial councils set up under the Government of India Act 1919. Its members planned to oppose British policies from within these councils.
What was the ultimatum given at the 1928 Calcutta Congress session?
The Calcutta session gave the British government one year to accept the dominion status proposed in the Nehru Report. If it refused, the Congress would demand complete independence.
Why was the Simon Commission boycotted in India?
The Simon Commission, appointed to review the working of the constitutional reforms, had no Indian member. Indians saw this as an insult and greeted it with the slogan 'Go back Simon'.
Why did Bhagat Singh throw a bomb in the Central Legislative Assembly?
Bhagat Singh and B.K. Dutt threw the bomb on 8 April 1929. Their leaflet said the aim was to make the deaf hear, not to kill anyone.
