The correct answer is West Bengal.
The Forward Bloc was formed by Subhas Chandra Bose on May 3, 1939, after he resigned from the presidency of the Indian National Congress. The party’s formation and early activities were primarily centered in Bengal, which was Subhas Chandra Bose’s home state and a major political hub. While the founding happened in 1939, its organization and activities continued into 1940 from its base in Bengal.
