What was the main reason for the boycott of the Simon Commission by the Indians?

Question

Accepted Answer

The Simon Commission was boycotted because it did not have any Indian members in it. The commission was set up in response to the nationalist movement to look into the functioning of the constitutional system in India and suggest changes, but the complete exclusion of Indians enraged the local population, leading to slogans like 'Go Back Simon'.
