Solution
The correct option is A Lord Dufferin
The British Government was not opposed to the formation of Congress. In the beginning,
Lord Dufferin encouraged Mr. Hume to form this national organization. In 1886, he
invited the Congress Members to a garden party in Calcutta. The British thought the
Congress would confine itself to academic discussion of their demands. But later, their attitude towards Congress changed due to increased criticism.
