Show answer & explanation

Correct answer: A

Explanation

The correct answer is option 1 i.e. Lahore.

  • The Indian National Congress passed the Purna Swaraj resolution in the Lahore session.
  • Jawaharlal Nehru, a key figure in India's fight for freedom, presided over the Indian National Congress's annual session held in Lahore in December 1929. During this session, the historic declaration of Purna Swaraj (complete independence) was adopted, marking a pivotal milestone in India’s journey toward liberation from British rule.
  • The Lahore session of 1929 was a turning point in the Indian independence movement, as it clearly outlined the demand for complete independence, moving away from the earlier demand for Dominion Status.
