Answer: (A) Indian Constitutional Reforms

The Simon Commission was appointed by the British government in 1927 under John Simon to review the working of the Government of India Act, 1919 and suggest future constitutional measures. It consisted of seven British MPs, with no Indian members — a fact that triggered nationwide protests with the slogan 'Simon Go Back.'
