The correct option is A 1845
The weavers' revolt in Silesia took place in 1845. On 4 June, a large crowd of weavers marched in pairs to the mansion of one of the contractors demanding an increase in their wages. They destroyed his mansion and broke into the storehouse where all the cloth was stored. The contractor called the army, and in the tussle, eleven weavers were shot. There were many such protests by workers across Europe, owing to unemployment and poverty.
