Your answer:  ·  Correct: B
Explanation

Jawaharlal Nehru was the president of the All‑India States’ Peoples’ Conference in 1939: he presided over the annual session of the All India States People’s Conference held at Ludhiana on 15–16 February 1939 [1]. Contemporary accounts and histories note the Ludhiana meeting of the AISPC in 1939 as a significant platform for states‑peoples’ movements, with Nehru playing a leading role in guiding its deliberations and linking it to broader Congress politics of the time [2]. Therefore among the given options, Jawaharlal Nehru (option 2) is the correct answer.
