A. Purna Swaraj✓ Correct Answer
B. Dominion Status
C. Separate Electorates
D. Provincial Autonomy
💡 Solution & Explanation
The Lahore session adopted the historic Purna Swaraj or complete independence resolution on the banks of the Ravi river, hoisting the tricolor flag on January 26, 1930. Dominion status had been the prior objective of the Nehru Report, which younger leaders successfully replaced with complete sovereignty. Separate electorates had already been embedded in earlier constitutional acts, while provincial autonomy was introduced later under the Government of India Act 1935.
