The Quit India Movement stemmed from the British refusal to grant immediate self-governance to India during World War II. The dissatisfaction among Indian leaders when Britain involved India in World War II without consulting them was also one of the major reasons behind this movement. Increasing wartime hardships, the threat of Japanese invasion, and Mahatma Gandhi’s belief that British rule endangered India were among other reasons for the movement.
