Answer 1

Hint: On 12 November 1921, when a Telugu lawyer, Allampalli Venkata Rao started speaking in Telugu on a resolution, the crowd who spoke English, Marathi, and Urdu yelled at him. This brought about the development of the Andhra Jana Sangham. Later on, it was renamed Andhra Mahasabha to advance the Telugu Language in 1930.This helped a lot in advancing the telugu language and had enormous impact.

Complete answer:
In Viveka Vardhini College of Hyderabad the meeting was held for passing the resolution.

Hence, the correct answer is option (C).

Additional information:Andhra Jana Sangham was mainly driven by Hanumantha Rao, Suravaram Pratapareddy, Lakshmana Rao, etc. Within a short period, more than 40 branches were set up throughout the Telugu speaking region. Its regular conferences were being held after the establishment of its branches. The Nizam government had an unfriendly attitude towards it and consequently forced a few limitations on it. The Andhra Mahila Mahasabha was held simultaneously. In 1946, the communist-led the Andhra Mahasabha held its session at Khammam. It was presided over by Ravi Narayan Reddy. On third December 1946, the communist party was banned in India and hence, the Andhra Mahasabha was shut down permanently.

Note: In its conferences, resolutions were passed to demand certain reforms in the administration, reforms in educational infrastructure, and social reforms against the government. it turned into a stage to speak more loudly of everyday citizens under certain initiatives. Later on, after the death of the last Nizam king, Usman Ali Khan, the Telangana peasants' rebellion and demonstrations were also seen under the banner of Andhra Mahasabha.
