Explanation:

In March 1946 the British Cabinet sent a three member mission to Delhi to examine the League’s  demand and to suggest a suitable political framework for a free India. The Cabinet Mission toured the  country for three months and recommended a loose three-tier confederation. India was to remain  united. It was to have a weak central government controlling only foreign affairs, defence and  communications with the existing provincial assemblies being grouped into three sections while  electing the constituent assembly: Section A for the Hindu majority provinces, and Sections B and C  for the Muslim-majority provinces of the north-west and the north-east (including Assam) respectively.  The sections or groups of provinces would comprise various regional units. They would have the  power to set up intermediate-level executives and legislatures of their own.
