Correct Answer:

1942

Explanation:

The correct answer is Option 4- 1942

The Quit India Movement was started in 1942.

It was a civil disobedience movement launched in India in August 1942 during World War II with the aim of forcing the British Raj to leave India.

The movement was led by Mahatma Gandhi and the Indian National Congress (INC).

On August 8, 1942, the INC passed the Quit India Resolution, which called for the immediate withdrawal of British rule from India.

The British government responded by arresting Gandhi and other INC leaders.

Despite the arrests, the Quit India Movement spread rapidly across India.
