Single correct option

The Poona Pact of 1932 was signed between Mahatma Gandhi and
  1. A. Muhammad Ali Jinnah
  2. B. B. R. Ambedkar
  3. C. Lord Irwin
  4. D. Jawaharlal Nehru
Show answer and solution

Answer: (B) B. R. Ambedkar

After Ramsay MacDonald's Communal Award gave separate electorates to the Depressed Classes, Gandhi began a fast unto death in Yerwada jail; the Poona Pact with Ambedkar replaced separate electorates with reserved seats within general electorates. The Gandhi-Irwin Pact (1931) is a different agreement, and Jinnah and Nehru were not parties.
