In 1920 at which session of the Congress, the Linguistic Principle was recognized as the basis of the re-organisation of Indian National Congress Party itself? |
Nagpur Karachi Lahore Delhi |
Nagpur |
The correct answer is Option (1) → Nagpur During colonial rule, the state boundaries were drawn either on administrative convenience or simply coincided with the territories annexed by the British government or the territories ruled by the princely powers. Our national movement had rejected these divisions as artificial and had promised the linguistic principle as the basis of formation of states. In fact after the Nagpur session of Congress in 1920 the principle was recognised as the basis of the reorganisation of the Indian National Congress party itself. Many Provincial Congress Committees were created by linguistic zones, which did not follow the administrative divisions of British India. |
