Who was the viceroy of India when second round table conference was held?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 3
The correct answer is Option (3) → Lord Willingdon
The Second Round Table Conference met in London from September to December 1931, after the Gandhi-Irwin Pact; Gandhiji attended it as the sole representative of the Congress. By then Lord Willingdon had taken over as Viceroy (April 1931 to 1936) from Lord Irwin, and on Gandhiji’s return the Civil Disobedience Movement was resumed and the government cracked down on it.
