In which of the following sessions of Muslim League, M. A. Jinnah putforth his 14 point proposal?

1927
1928
1929
1930

The correct answer is (b), 1928.

The 14 Points were a political demand for Muslim self-determination in British India. They were presented by the All-India Muslim League under the leadership of Muhammad Ali Jinnah at the annual session of the League in Lahore on 23 March 1928. The 14 Points were a response to the failure of the Nehru Report, which had been drafted by the Indian National Congress and proposed a system of government for India that would have given Hindus a majority of seats in the central legislature.

The 14 Points demanded that Muslims be given a separate electorate, that they be guaranteed representation in all government bodies, that they be allowed to establish their own educational institutions, and that they be given control over their own religious affairs. The 14 Points also demanded that Muslims be given a greater share of government jobs and that they be allowed to form their own provinces.

The 14 Points were rejected by the Indian National Congress, and they led to a growing rift between the Hindus and Muslims in India. The 14 Points were one of the factors that led to the partition of India in 1947.

The other options are incorrect because they are not the years in which the 14 Points were presented.
