Show answer and solution

Answer: (A) Separate electorates for the depressed classes

After the Communal Award gave separate electorates to the depressed classes, Gandhi began a fast unto death in Yerwada jail. The Poona Pact replaced separate electorates by reserved seats in the general electorate, with more seats than the award had given. The other options concern unrelated events.
