Who among the following was the President of the Lucknow session of the Indian National Congress in 1916? 

Correct option is B

·  The Lucknow session of the Indian National Congress in 1916 was presided over by Ambika Charan Majumdar, a senior Congress leader and lawyer from Bengal.

·  This session is historically significant because it marked the reunion of the two factions of the Congress — the Moderates and the Extremists — after their split in 1907.

·  Additionally, this session saw the Lucknow Pact being signed between the Congress and the All India Muslim League, led by Bal Gangadhar Tilak and Muhammad Ali Jinnah, respectively. The pact was a landmark in Hindu-Muslim unity and in the fight for self-governance.

• Bishan Narayan Dhar: Presided over the 1911 Calcutta session of the Indian National Congress but not the Lucknow session of 1916.
