Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The Indian National Congress, under the leadership of Mahatma Gandhi and Jawaharlal Nehru, insisted that independence was the price England should pay for Indian support during World War II. They launched the Quit India Movement in 1942 to demand immediate self-rule, which ultimately led to India's independence in 1947. The Congress did not provide troops to support Franco in the Spanish Civil War, support the Hitler-Stalin Non-Aggression Pact, or defer aspirations for independence until after the formation of the United Nations.
