Q. Who of the following attended all the three Round Table Conferences?
(a) B R Ambedkar
(b) M M Malaviya
(c) Vallabhbhai Patel
(d) None of the above
Ans: (a) B R Ambedkar
Explanation: The correct answer is (a) B R Ambedkar.
B R Ambedkar attended all three Round Table Conferences. The Round Table Conferences were a series of discussions and negotiations held in London between 1930 and 1932 to address constitutional reforms in British India. These conferences aimed to gather representatives from various sections of Indian society, including different political parties and communities, to discuss and deliberate on the future political structure of India.
B R Ambedkar, who was a prominent social reformer, jurist, and the architect of India’s Constitution, attended all three Round Table Conferences as a representative of the depressed classes (later known as Scheduled Castes). He advocated for the rights and welfare of the marginalized and oppressed communities, particularly the Dalits, and played a crucial role in shaping the discussions on social and political reforms during the conferences.
While M M Malaviya and Vallabhbhai Patel were important political figures during that time, they did not attend all three Round Table Conferences. However, they were involved in the Indian National Congress and participated in various political movements and negotiations leading up to India’s independence.
