Q. When Congress leaders condemned the Montagu- Chelmsford Report, many moderates left the party to form the:

(a) Swarajya party

 (b) Indian Freedom Party

(c) Independence Federation of India

(d) Indian Liberal Federation

Ans: (a) Swarajya party

Explanation: The correct answer is (a) Swarajya party.

When Congress leaders condemned the Montagu-Chelmsford Report, which was a proposed constitutional reform for India in 1918, many moderates within the Indian National Congress disagreed with the party’s position. These moderates, led by C.R. Das and Motilal Nehru, decided to form a new political party called the Swarajya Party in 1923.

The Swarajya Party was established with the aim of advocating for more radical and immediate self-rule or “swaraj” for India. It sought to challenge the colonial administration through constitutional means and pressure the British government for faster political reforms.
