Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: A
Explanation
The correct answer is option 1 i.e. 1935.
The Government of India Act of 1935 proposed the establishment of an All India Federation, also known as the Federation of India. This Act was the most comprehensive legislation enacted by the British Parliament for India. It aimed to bring together British Indian provinces and princely states under a single federation. However, the federation never came into effect because many princely states did not agree to join. Despite this, the Act laid the foundation for India’s federal structure post-independence.
