Looking back to 1942, when the Congress rejected the "Cripps Plan", Rajaji came up with his "CR-Plan". He advised the Congress to accept the formation of Pakistan but was violently opposed by the party. Some historians think that if only the Congress had only accepted the CR-Plan, the trauma of Partition in 1947 could well have been avoided. Do you agree?
The CR-Plan anticipated in acute detail what actually happened later in 1947. In a way he paved the way for talks if not a solution. Rajagopalachari largely engineered the Gandhi-Jinnah Talks of 1944. It gave Jinnah much publicity, much propaganda of his cause, much force and increased the chances of formation of Pakistan

Rajaji's formula, in March 1944, accepted plebiscite on Partition in areas "wherein the Muslim population is in absolute majority." On September 24, 1944 Gandhi himself offered Jinnah his plan for "two sovereign independent States" with a Treaty of Separation on defence, foreign affairs, etc

At the Allahabad meeting of the Congress Working Committee (July 1942) Rajaji came out with the bold suggestion that the party accept the principle of partition as the basis for an understanding with the Muslim League.
`CR Formula' for Partition
The `C.R. Formula' which formed the basis of the 1944 Gandhi-Jinnah talks, relied on the premise implicit in the formula itself, of a treaty of separation which would provide for the efficient and satisfactory administration for a difficult phase of transition.
