Solution

The correct option is A 1928
After a bloodless revolution in Britain, the control was in the hands of the House of Commons which represented the middle class. The Parliamentary form of government grew in stages in England. Initially, only people with land and property had the right to vote in parliamentary elections. This was gradually extended to different sections of the population. By 1928 CE, all adults were granted the right to vote in Britain.
