B. Jawaharlal Nehru✓ Correct Answer
C. Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel

💡 Solution & Explanation

Jawaharlal Nehru introduced the historic Objectives Resolution in the Constituent Assembly in December 1946, laying down the fundamental principles and philosophical framework that eventually evolved into the Preamble of the Indian Constitution. Other prominent leaders like Dr. B. R. Ambedkar chaired the Drafting Committee rather than moving this initial foundational resolution. The Constituent Assembly took nearly three years to finalize the constitution text.
