Answer: Option C

C
Explanation:
The Quit India movement began in August 1942, following the failure of the Cripps Mission, in March 1942.As major leaders, including Gandhiji, were quickly arrested, younger activists organized strikes and sabotage throughout the country. Socialist members of the Congress, such as Jayaprakash Narayan, Achyut Patwardhan and others, were particularly active in underground resistance.In several districts, such as Satara in the West and Medinipur in the East, "independent" governments have been proclaimed. "Quit India" was truly a mass movement, bringing hundreds of thousands of ordinary Indians into its sphere. It was especially energized by young people who, in very large numbers, left their colleges to go to prison.
