Reason and Assertion type : Assertion [A] : Indian National Congress Party dubbed Sir. Pitti Theagaraya as an Anti-National. Reason [R] : He issued the Non-Brahmin Manifesto.
Both [A] and [R] are true; and [R] is the correct explanation of [A]
Sir P. Theagaraya Chetty, along with Dr. T.M. Nair, founded the South Indian Liberal Federation (Justice Party) in 1916-17.
In December 1916 he issued the Non-Brahmin Manifesto, which criticised Brahmin dominance in the public services and politics and was cool towards the Home Rule agitation and the Congress.
Because the manifesto opposed the Congress-led nationalist demands and favoured loyalty to British rule, Congress leaders branded Theagaraya and his associates as anti-national. Thus the Reason directly explains the Assertion.
Hence, Both [A] and [R] are true; and [R] is the correct explanation of [A].
