Answer 1

The correct option is A 1 and 2 only

Explanation:

At the end of December 1929, Congress held its annual session in the town of Lahore. The meeting was significant in two respects: the election of Jawaharlal Nehru as President, the passing of the leadership baton to the younger generation; and the proclamation of a commitment to "Purna Swaraj" or complete independence. Now the pace of politics has picked up again. On 26 January 1930, "Independence Day" was celebrated, the national flag was raised in different venues and patriotic songs were sung.
