The correct answer is Option 1 - 1938 Subhas Chandra Bose was elected President of the Haripura Congress Session in 1938. The Haripura Congress Session was the 51st session of the Indian National Congress. It was held in Haripura, Gujarat, from February 19 to 22, 1938. Subhas Chandra Bose was unanimously elected President of the Congress at this session. Bose's presidency of the Indian National Congress was marked by his advocacy for a more radical approach to the Indian independence movement. He was a strong supporter of mass mobilization and civil disobedience. He also supported the formation of an independent Indian army. Bose's presidency was also marked by his differences with Mahatma Gandhi over the direction of the Indian independence movement. Gandhi was a proponent of non-violent resistance, while Bose was more supportive of armed struggle. These differences led to Bose's resignation from the presidency of the Indian National Congress in 1939. |
