Who among the following founded the Swaraj Party in 1923 ?
C.R. Das and Motilal Nehru
After the Non-Cooperation Movement was withdrawn in 1922, the Congress split over whether to enter the legislative councils created under the Montagu-Chelmsford Reforms.
Chittaranjan Das and Motilal Nehru led the 'pro-changers', who wanted to contest the council elections and obstruct the government from within; they formed the Congress-Khilafat Swarajya Party, known as the Swaraj Party, on 1 January 1923, with Das as president and Motilal Nehru as secretary.
C. Rajagopalachari, Rajendra Prasad and Vallabhbhai Patel were 'no-changers' who opposed council entry and stayed with Gandhi's constructive programme, while Jawaharlal Nehru and Subhas Chandra Bose were not the founders of the party.
C.R. Das and Motilal Nehru option is correct.
