Cevap

August Offer (1940) matches with the first explicit recognition of Dominion Status; Cripps Mission (1942) matches with proposing an Indian-led Constituent Assembly post-WWII; Cabinet Mission (1946) matches with the three-tier administrative setup and grouping of provinces; Mountbatten Plan (1947) matches with the procedure for partitioning British India into two dominions.
Each constitutional event correctly aligns with its historic provision: the August Offer (1940) introduced Dominion Status as an official objective, the Cripps Mission (1942) promised a post-war Indian-made constitution, the Cabinet Mission (1946) established a three-tier provincial grouping plan, and the Mountbatten Plan (1947) outlined the partition of India.
