| Summary/Abstract |
In the absence of direct diplomatic links with India because it was part of the British Empire, President Roosevelt of the United States found means to monitor the political situation there when the Cripps Mission to India of March-April 1942, which offered a small measure of reform, ended in failure as predicted. His 'emissaries' in India, Louis Fischer and Edgar Snow amongst others, uncovered a very different version of the failure of the Cripps Mission. Their articles, published from September 1942 onwards, let their American readers and Churchill's information bureaux know that British propaganda had been shown up for what it really was-a bid to retain British control of India.

| Summary/Abstract |
This paper studies the years 1940–42 in Bengal with a view to analysing the social fuel that made the Quit India Movement possible in the province. War-time colonial policies created multiple disruptions and intrusions in the lives of the people of Bengal, building up anxieties and mass discontent. Coupled with widespread rumours, this profoundly reconfigured the image of the colonial state. This paper attempts to tap into the psyche of colonised minds in Bengal in the early stages of the war, which began to question British invincibility in the face of serious reverses in Southeast Asia. When a potent mix of mass discontentment and rumour was combined with ‘revolutionary’ political activism in the countryside, it acted as an explosive catalyst, animating the Quit India Movement.
