The major achievement of Congress Ministries were : 

1. Reduction of the salaries of the ministers, 

2. Welfare scheme for the tribals, 

3. Jail reforms and, 

4. Declaration of Fundamental rights. 

Although the Congress formed ministries in different provinces, they actually failed to introduce land reforms. The Marxist writers highlight that the zamindars and landlords had influence on the Congress. Naturally, the Congress ministries did not want to alienate this class. On the other hand, in UP, most of the talukdars were Muslims and land reform would affect their interests and they might side with the league. Congress required the cooperation of all the sections including the landed aristocracy. Though the people had great expectations, the Congress ministries were not destined to rule for long. The Congress ministries resigned in November 1939, on the war issue.
