Consider the following statements : 1. The 'Bombay Manifesto' signed in 1936 openly opposed the preaching of socialist ideals. 2. It evoked support from a large section of business community from all across India. Which of the statements given above is/are correct ?

The 'Bombay Manifesto' of 1936 was signed by 21 prominent Bombay-based businessmen (including Purshotamdas Thakurdas and A.D. Shroff) to oppose Jawaharlal Nehru's socialist rhetoric at the Lucknow session. While Statement 1 is correct, Statement 2 is incorrect because the manifesto did not have pan-India support. Leading capitalists like G.D. Birla (from Calcutta/Delhi) refused to sign, preferring a strategy of supporting the Congress's right-wing to influence policy from within rather than through open confrontation.
