Solution
The correct option is B Important positions
Women participated in protest marches, manufactured salt, and picketed foreign cloth and liquor shops. Many went to jail. Moved by Gandhiji's call, they began to see service to the nation as a sacred duty of women. Yet, this increased public role did not necessarily mean any radical change in the way the position of women was visualised. The Congress was reluctant to allow women to hold any position of authority within the organisation. It was keen only on their symbolic presence.
