In 1939, when World War II began, the British Government in India declared India at war with Germany without consulting the Indian National Congress. This unilateral move angered the Congress, which held ministries in several provinces under the Government of India Act 1935. In protest over being excluded from the decision, all Congress ministries resigned, creating a major political crisis in colonial India.
