The correct option is B Bal Gangadhar Tilak
In 1895, Bal Gangadhar Tilak presented the ‘Swaraj Bill’ to the British government. The bill asked for the right to freedom of thought and expression and equality under law. Annie Besant’s ‘Commonwealth of India’ Bill proposed in 1925 reiterated Tilak’s demands.
