Several intermediaries facilitated the negotiations between the Congress leadership (represented by Gandhi) and the British government. Sir Tej Bahadur Sapru and M. R. Jayakar, prominent Liberal leaders, were instrumental in bridging the gap and persuading both sides to come to the negotiating table.
