For the Karachi session of Indian National Congress in 1931 presided over by Sardar Patel. Who drafted the Resolution Fundamental Rights and Economic Programme?
Explanation
The Karachi session of the Indian National Congress (March 1931) was presided over by Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel. At that session the Congress adopted a detailed “Resolution on Fundamental Rights and Economic Programme” which guaranteed basic civil and political rights and recommended measures such as nationalization of key industries, better labour conditions, agrarian reform and free primary education [1]. Historical summaries and reference compilations credit Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru with drafting this Karachi resolution on Fundamental Rights and the economic programme for the Congress that year. Hence the correct choice is Pandit Jawaharlal Nehru, who prepared the text that the 1931 Karachi session adopted.
