Complete answer:
One of the main aims of Indians included putting forward their demands of the Poorna Swaraj or Complete Independence in the round table conference. They also aimed towards increasing their Nationalism through protesting against Britishers. On the other hand, the Britishers aimed a division between Indians by using their policy of “ Divide And Rule”. The First Round Table Conference was held in 1930 and was inaugurated by King George V on November 12, 1930, in London. The chairperson of the conference was The British Prime Minister, Ramsay MacDonald.
