Show answer
Answer: C. The Second Round Table Conference was held in London from September to December 1931, with Gandhi attending. The Quit India Movement was launched in August 1942. The Royal Indian Navy mutiny broke out in Bombay in February 1946. So the order is 3-2-1.
Watch for: Watch for placing the RIN mutiny earlier; it was one of the last events before independence.
Why the other options are wrong
- A. Wrong because the RIN mutiny (1946) came last, not first.
- B. Wrong because the Second RTC (1931) came before both.
- D. Wrong because Quit India (1942) came before the RIN mutiny (1946).
