A
leaders of Swadeshi and Boycott Movement
B
members of the Interim Government in 1946
C
members of the Drafting Committee in the Constituent Assembly
D
officers of the Indian National Army
Correct Answer
Explanation
Shah Nawaz Khan, Prem Kumar Sehgal, and Gurbaksh Singh Dhillon were senior officers of the Indian National Army (INA) who became national icons during the famous Red Fort Trials of 1945. This question tests the core concept of the post-World War II nationalist upsurge and the legal-political impact of the INA trials on the Indian independence movement. While they were contemporaries of the 1946 Interim Government (Option B), they were the soldiers being defended by the Congress legal team rather than members of the government itself.
