The correct option is C Statement I only
With the withdrawal of the Non-Cooperation movement, various congressmen like Motilal Nehru and C.R. Das called for the withdrawal of boycott of legislative assemblies. They planned to re-enter the legislative assemblies and cause hindrance, which would strengthen the freedom movement. Thus, they founded the Swaraj Party and contested election. The Party won 42 seats out of 101 available seats. However, the numbers weren't enough to cause disruptions to the legislation passed by the British.
