B. Motilal Nehru

C. Vallabhbhai Patel.

(a) B and C only

(b) A and B only

(c) A, B and C

(d) C only

Ans: (b) A and B only

Explanation: The Swaraj Party was founded by (b) Motilal Nehru and (a) C. R. Das.

The Swaraj Party was a political party established in 1923 within the Indian National Congress. It emerged as a result of a split within the Congress over its response to the government reforms proposed by the British.

Motilal Nehru, a prominent lawyer and father of Jawaharlal Nehru, and C. R. Das, a lawyer and freedom fighter, were the key figures in founding the Swaraj Party. They formed the party to advocate for full self-government or swaraj within the framework of the existing colonial structure.

The Swaraj Party aimed to actively participate in the legislative councils established under the Government of India Act 1919 and work towards advancing nationalist causes within the limited autonomy provided by the reforms.

Vallabhbhai Patel, who later became one of the prominent leaders of the Indian National Congress and the first Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Home Affairs of independent India, was not directly involved in the formation of the Swaraj Party.

Therefore, the correct option is (b) A and B only, as the Swaraj Party was founded by Motilal Nehru and C. R. Das.
