The Simon Commission, appointed by the British government in 1927, had a significant impact on the Indian freedom movement. The commission was formed to review and recommend constitutional reforms for India. However, it consisted entirely of British members, and no Indian representative was included. This exclusion of Indian voices led to widespread protests and opposition from the Indian National Congress and other political parties. The Congress called for a boycott of the commission and organized demonstrations across the country. The rejection of the commission highlighted the growing demand for self-governance and the need for Indians to have a say in the political future of their country.
