This made it hard for people to understand what the British were fighting for. The British war aims were not clear. This was a big failure.The reason is that the Congress ministries resigned. They did this after the British government did something. The British government refused to clarify its war aims. It also did not give assurances about Indias freedom. This happened after something occurred. India got involved in World War II without wanting to.
