Ans: (b) Lahore Congress
Explanation: The resolution of Purna Swaraj was adopted at option (b) Lahore Congress.
The Lahore Congress, also known as the 1929 Congress session, was held in Lahore, Punjab, during December 1929. It was during this session that the Indian National Congress adopted the historic resolution of Purna Swaraj (Complete Independence) on December 31, 1929. The resolution declared the goal of the Indian independence movement to be complete self-rule and complete independence from British colonial rule. It marked a significant shift from the earlier demand for dominion status to a demand for complete sovereignty.
The Lahore Congress session is also famous for the unfurling of the Indian National Congress flag, designed by Pingali Venkayya, which came to be known as the “Swaraj Flag” or the “Congress Flag.” The resolution of Purna Swaraj set the stage for the subsequent civil disobedience movements and played a crucial role in India’s struggle for independence.
