The correct answer is option 4, Wardha. In 1937, an educational conference was held in Wardha which endorsed Gandhi`s proposals for `basic education` through the vernacular medium. Wardha is a city located in the state of Maharashtra, India. Gandhi believed in the importance of education in the mother tongue or vernacular language of the students, rather than using a foreign or unfamiliar language. He proposed a model of education that aimed to develop the mind, body, and spirit of the individual and make them self-reliant. This conference in Wardha played a significant role in shaping the educational policies in India and promoting vernacular medium education. It reflected the larger movement for national integration and the use of indigenous languages in education.
