Correct Answer:

Jawaharlal Nehru

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option 2- Jawaharlal Nehru

Jawaharlal Nehru was the president of the Indian National Congress in 1929 when the party demanded complete independence.

The Lahore session of the Indian National Congress in 1929 was a watershed moment in the Indian independence movement. At this session, the party passed the Purna Swaraj resolution, which demanded complete independence for India. The resolution was moved by Jawaharlal Nehru and passed unanimously by the party.

The Purna Swaraj resolution was a bold and decisive step by the Indian National Congress. It marked the party's commitment to complete independence and its rejection of any form of compromise with the British government. The resolution also inspired and mobilized the Indian people to fight for their freedom.

Jawaharlal Nehru was a key figure in the passage of the Purna Swaraj resolution. He was a young and dynamic leader who was committed to the cause of Indian independence. He was also a powerful orator and writer who was able to articulate the aspirations of the Indian people.

The Purna Swaraj resolution was a major turning point in the Indian independence movement. It paved the way for the launch of the Civil Disobedience Movement in 1930, which marked the beginning of the final phase of the Indian struggle for freedom.
