Answer

Exam answer

(b) The Congress and the Muslim League.

Explanation

The Lucknow Pact of 1916 was an agreement between the Indian National Congress and the All India Muslim League, negotiated largely by Tilak and Jinnah. The Congress accepted separate electorates for Muslims, and both bodies jointly demanded self-government. Option (c) is the trap and is half true of the same session: the Lucknow session of 1916 also REUNITED the Early and Assertive Nationalists after the Surat Split of 1907. But the PACT itself was between the Congress and the League.

In words

The Congress and the Muslim League.
