<P> Following the Government of India Act, 1935, British India introduced major constitutional reforms, with a loose federal structure for India and provincial autonomy . In the provincial elections of February 1937, the Indian National Congress emerged with clear majority in most provinces of British India and formed provincial governments . The Andhra Mahasabha passed a resolution in favour of responsible government and the parallel organisations of Maharastrha Parishad and Karnataka Parishad were formed in their respective regions . The Nizam appointed a fresh Constitutional Reforms Committee in September 1937 . However, the gagging orders of the 1920s remained curtailing the freedom of press and restrictions on public speeches and meetings . In response, a' Hyderabad People's Convention' was created, with a working committee of 23 leading Hindus and 5 Muslims . The convention ratified a report, which was submitted to the Constitutional Reforms Committee in January 1938 . However, four of the five Muslim members of the working committee refused to sign the report, reducing its potential impact . </P> <P> In February 1938, the Indian National Congress passed the Haripura resolution declaring that the princely states are "an integral part of India," and that it stood for "the same political, social and economic freedom in the States as in the rest of India ." </P> <P> Encouraged by this, the standing committee of the People's Convention proposed to form a Hyderabad State Congress and an enthusiastic drive to enroll members was begun . By July 1938, the committee claimed to have enrolled 1200 primary members and declared that elections would soon be held for the office - bearers . It called upon both Hindus and Muslims of the state to "shed mutual distrust" and join the "cause of responsible government under the aegis of the Ashaf Jahi dynasty ." The Nizam responded by passing a new Public Safety Act on 6 September 1938, three days before the scheduled elections, and issued an order that the Hyderabad State Congress would be deemed unlawful . </P> <P> Negotiations with the Nizam's government to lift the ban ended in failure . The Hyderabad issue was widely discussed in the newspapers in British India . P.M. Bapat, a leader of the Indian National Congress from Pune, declared that he would launch a satyagraha (civil disobedience movement) in Hyderbad . Hindu communal organisations Arya Samaj and Hindu Mahasabha, which had branches in the State, planned to launch their own satyagrahas on the matter of Hindu civil rights . The Arya Samaj leaders hoped to capitalise on the communal tensions that had been on the boil since early 1938 . Perhaps in a bid not to be outdone, the activists of the Hyderabad State Congress formed a' Committee of Action' and initiated a satyagraha on 24 October 1938 . Members of the organisation were fielded, who openly declared they belonged to the Hyderabad State Congress and courted arrest . The Arya Samaj - Hindu Mahasabha combine also launched their own satyagraha on the same day . </P>
