Separate Electorate was NOT a recommendation of the Nehru Report.

The Nehru Report (1928) advocated for Joint Electorates with reservation of seats for minorities in proportion to the population, wherever they were in a minority. It was a key demand of the Indian National Congress to move away from communal electorates introduced by the British. The report explicitly rejected the principle of separate electorates.

The Nehru Report recommended Dominion Status for India within the British Commonwealth. It proposed a federal system with a strong centre and a responsible government. It also included provisions for Fundamental Rights and Universal Adult Suffrage. The report was significant as it was the first attempt by Indians to draft their own constitution. However, it was not accepted by all political factions, particularly Muslim League leaders like Jinnah who put forth his ‘Fourteen Points’ in response, advocating for separate electorates among other demands.
