The decade of the 1940s proved
unremittingly hard for the British. Their grip
over the colonies was tremendously crippled
and the mighty imperial power had to come
to a compromise with Asian nationalism.
The early years of the 1940s convinced them
to seek cooperation of the Indian
communities on the war issue. This resulted
in the dispatch of the Cripps Mission to the
Subcontinent. Historians like R. J. Moore
see this move as a response to US pressure
in the context of rapid Japanese advances in
the Asian war theatre. The reality was more
complex than this. Cripps found that his
efforts in 1942 were hampered by the
tension in the Muslim-Sikh relationship in
the Punjab. This province was central to the
imperial war efforts because of the
recruitment to the Indian Army. This article
looks into the circumstances and working as
well as the impacts of the Cripps Proposals
on the Muslim-Sikh relations in the British
Punjab.
