Gandhi Plan for Interim Indian Government in War Talks
A New York contact presents a plan to form an interim Indian government. Executive power would rest with the viceroy and a council of fifteen, with five seats for the all-India Congress and five for the Moslem League, plus proportional representation guarantees and postwar constitutional framing. The plan requires United Nations guarantees or a Churchill pledge, and allows Indians to focus on supporting the Allied war effort.
