Show answer and solution

Answer: (A) 1 only

Only statement 1 is correct. The Pact of March 1931 suspended civil disobedience, released non-violent political prisoners and led Gandhi to represent the Congress at the Second Round Table Conference in London. Statement 2 is wrong because the Pact followed the Dandi March (March 1930) and the Civil Disobedience Movement by almost a year.
