Solution

The correct option is B 1960
The anger within the native Africans and the coloured called for an armed struggle. Nelson Mandela helped to organise a paramilitary subgroup of the African National Congress (ANC) in 1960. The paramilitary group’s activities were detected by the government. Nelson Mandela, along with seven other members, was arrested in 1963 and tried for treason.
