Solution

The correct option is A Ramsay Mcdonald
On August 16, 1932, the British Prime Minister McDonald announced the Communal Award. It declared the depressed classes to be minorities, and entitled them to separate electorates. Mahatma Gandhi objected to this provision which in his view separated them from the whole Hindu community.
