Indian National Congress
The Nehru Report was submitted in August 1928 as the final document of a committee appointed by the All Parties Conference convened at Bombay and Delhi to draft a constitution for India. The committee was chaired by Motilal Nehru, with Jawaharlal Nehru as secretary, and included Tej Bahadur Sapru, Subhas Chandra Bose, M. S. Aney, Mangal Singh, Ali Imam, Shuaib Qureshi and G. R. Pradhan. It was a direct Indian response to the challenge thrown down by Lord Birkenhead, Secretary of State, who taunted Indians to produce an agreed constitution, and to the all-white Simon Commission appointed in 1927, which the Congress and a section of the Muslim League had boycotted. The Report represented the first serious attempt by Indians themselves to frame the principles of a self-governing constitution.
