Who was the President of the Congress Party at the time of Nehru's demise?

K. Kamraj

The correct answer is Option (3) → K. Kamraj

At the time of Jawaharlal Nehru’s death on 27 May 1964, the President of the Indian National Congress was K. Kamaraj.

"The ease with which the succession after Nehru took place proved all the critics wrong. When Nehru passed away, K. Kamraj, the president of the Congress party consulted party leaders and Congress members of Parliament and found that there was a consensus in favour of Lal Bahadur Shastri. He was unanimously chosen as the leader of the Congress parliamentary party and thus became the country’s next Prime Minister. Shastri was a non-controversial leader from Uttar Pradesh who had been a Minister in Nehru’s cabinet for many years. Nehru had come to depend a lot on him in his last year. ".
