The Government of India Act 1935 proposed which major reform?
Establishment of federal government
The Government of India Act, 1935 provided for an All India Federation made up of the British Indian provinces and the princely states, with powers divided between the Centre and the units through three lists.
The federation never came into being because the princely states did not join, but the Act's federal scheme influenced the Indian Constitution.
Separate electorates had been introduced earlier by the Indian Councils Act of 1909, zamindari was abolished after Independence, and the Act did not grant full independence.
Hence, Establishment of federal government.
