Hint: Russia is an industrial place and at the time of Alexander II of Russia the condition of labor classes was horrific. The capitalists were treated as slaves and laborers had to face exploitation. Thus Russia saw a phase of the Industrial revolution.

Complete step by step answer:
At the time of Alexander II of Russia, the New Peasant working class emerged in Russia's industrialization cities. The working conditions in these cities were horrific, the employer getting employment only for the short term after they resume their agriculture work at home or be unemployed. And the abusive power of capitalism makes employers work long hours on low wages with a lack of safety and precautions, and Russia becomes more corrupt than ever before, making the working class strike.
A Russian Orthodox priest Georgy Apollonovich Gapon, was a popular working-class leader before the Russian revolution of 1905. A group of workers led by the radical priest Georgy Apollonovich Gapon on January 22, 1905, to make their demand marched to the winter Palace in St. Petersburg. Over the next decade, the internal tension of Russia continued to build. As the ignorance of the regime and unwillingness to change its ways, radical socialists groups like Lening's Bolsheviks become stronger. The situation came that it stretched to the point of demand of World War I.

So, the correct answer is Option B.

Note: That day is called Bloody Sunday because approximately 200 people were killed on that day by the rifle and Cossack charges. Bloody Sunday is spleen as one of the main factors cause of the 1905 REVOLUTION.
