Solution

The correct option is A First World War
The Home Rule League organization was established in 1915-16 during WW I, by Bal Gangadhar Tilak and Annie Besant. Many Indian revolutionaries supported the Britishers but Tilak and Besant considered this an opportunity to achieve independence from the British. Thus, they decided to organize a national alliance of leagues across India, specifically to demand Home Rule or self-government.
