    Solution

    The Cabinet Mission was sent to India in March 1946, following the formation of a new Labour government in Britain. The mission was tasked with negotiating the terms of India’s independence and proposing a plan for the future constitution of India. The mission's key members included Lord Pethick-Lawrence, Sir Stafford Cripps, and A.V. Alexander. Its proposals were eventually rejected by the Congress, but the plan provided a framework for the later partition and independence of India in 1947.
