The three key figures from the Indian National Congress who helped broker this agreement through negotiations with the British were:
- Tej Bahadur Sapru
- M R Jayakar
- V S Srinivasa Sastri
Purshottam Das Tandon was NOT among one of the three Indian leaders who persuaded the INC and British to arrive at the Gandhi-Irwin Pact of 1931.
