The correct option is C WC Banerji
Indian National Congress was formed on December 28, 1885, by British civil servant Allan Octavian Hume. It was formed when 72 delegates from all the presidencies and provinces of India met at Bombay from 28 to 30 December 1885. WC Banerjee presided this session. It was set up to bring together a group of educated individuals on a common platform to influence policymaking.
