Solution

The correct option is A Lucknow Session

Explanation:

  • After a separation of around a decade, Moderates and extremists rejoined the Lucknow session of the congress held under the presidency of Ambika Charan Majumdar in 1916. What facilitated the rejoining was the realization in both the camps that the split had helped none and rather it hampered the cause of the movement. The death of certain moderate leaders like Gopal Krishna Gokhale and Perozshah Mehta who were very rigid also helped in bringing closer both the camps.
