The British attempted to appease the moderates in colonial India as a strategy to maintain stability and prevent the rise of more radical movements that could threaten their control. By addressing some of the demands of moderate leaders, they aimed to create a divide between more extreme factions and the moderate nationalists, thereby weakening the overall nationalist movement. This approach was also intended to project an image of responsiveness and reform, helping to legitimize British rule in the eyes of both Indian leaders and the international community.
