Result
Your answer: —  Â·  Correct: B

Explanation

Bal Gangadhar Tilak, despite being a towering figure in the Indian National Movement and a leader of the Extremist faction, never presided over a session of the Indian National Congress (INC). While he was a key influence, circumstances such as his imprisonment or political shifts prevented his presidency.

  • Lala Lajpat Rai presided over the Special Session of the INC in Calcutta in 1920.
  • Gopal Krishna Gokhale presided over the Benaras Session in 1905.
  • Subhash Chandra Bose presided over the Haripura Session in 1938 and was re-elected for the Tripuri Session in 1939 (though he resigned later due to differences with the Congress Working Committee).
