The correct option is C 1876
The Indian Association was formed in Bengal in 1876 by Surendranath Banerjea and Ananda Mohan Bose. It was a nationalist political group in India that favoured local self-government and tenant rights, and when the Bengal Tenancy Act was finally passed in 1885, it demanded representative government. The association gradually lost ground after the Indian National Congress was founded in 1885.
