In Bihar, at which place was the session of the Indian National Congress held in the year 1922?

Correct answer: (c) Gaya

Explanation

After being released from jail in 1922, Chittaranjan Das was declared the elected President of the Congress conference at Gaya. After the end of the Non-Cooperation Movement, Deshbandhu, through the council-entry programme (that is, non-cooperation from within the councils), tried to give a new direction to Indian politics. However, leaders like C. Rajagopalachari, Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, Dr. Rajendra Prasad, S. Srinivasa Iyengar, etc., opposed the policy of entering the councils. In this session, a resolution not to enter the councils was passed; as a result, Chittaranjan Das resigned. After this, he founded the Swaraj Party from within the Congress.
