Attempt This Question
Not attemptedCorrect Answer: (b) attainment of Poorna Swaraj was adopted as the goal of the Congress
The Lahore session of the Indian National Congress in December 1929, presided over by Jawaharlal Nehru, passed the historic ‘Purna Swaraj’ resolution declaring complete independence as the Congress goal. It did not start the Non-cooperation Movement (1920) nor decide participation in the later Round Table Conferences. Hence option (b) is correct.
