The Quit India Resolution

The Quit India Resolution was a statement made by the Indian National Congress in 1942, demanding an end to British rule in India. Led by Mahatma Gandhi, it called for immediate independence and urged Indians to non-violently resist British authority. The resolution marked a decisive step in the freedom movement, emphasizing the urgency for Indians to unite and pursue self-rule. It also led to widespread protests and was a turning point that accelerated India’s path toward independence, which was eventually achieved in 1947.
