Solution

The correct option is C Pattabhi Sitaramayya
In 1939, Bose put forward his name for presidentship of the Tripuri session. Mahatma Gandhi, on the other hand, put candidature of Pattabhi Sitaramayya. But the popularity of Bose shattered the hope of Gandhi and became the President. But Bose couldn't preside over the session as result of his illness.
