Option 3: Pt.Jawaharlal Nehru
Option 4: B.R.Ambedkar
Correct Answer: Pt.Jawaharlal Nehru
Solution : The correct option is Pt.Jawaharlal Nehru.
Jawaharlal Nehru, India's first Prime Minister, referred to the Government of India Act of 1935 as a "new charter of bondage." He used this word to criticise the act for retaining certain aspects of colonial control and failing to grant India with full self-government or independence. Nehru and other Indian National Congress leaders were disappointed with the act's provisions, which fell short of their desires for more autonomy and independence. They saw it as an attempt to maintain British control rather than a real move towards Indian independence.
