In _________, BR Ambedkar negotiated the Poona Pact with Mahatma Gandhi.
1932
The correct answer is 1932.
The Poona Pact was signed on 24 September 1932 at Yerwada Central Jail, Poona, between Dr. B. R. Ambedkar (representing the Depressed Classes) and Mahatma Gandhi. It was negotiated after Gandhi's fast-unto-death against the Communal Award of British Prime Minister Ramsay MacDonald, which had provided separate electorates for the Depressed Classes.
The pact replaced separate electorates with a system of reserved seats within the general (Hindu) electorate, increasing the number of reserved seats for the Depressed Classes from 71 to 148 in the provincial legislatures.
