The incorrect statement regarding the Simon Commission is that the members were all Americans.
All the members of the Simon Commission were British. The new conservative government in England had established a Statutory Commission under Sir John Simon. Created in response to the nationalist movement, this committee reviewed the workings of the constitutional system in British India and projected certain changes. The problem was that the committee did not have any Indian members; they were all British. Once the Simon Commission arrived in India in 1928, it was greeted with the slogan "Go Back, Simon". All the parties, the Indian National Congress, and the Muslim League participated in the protests.
