View question detailsOption A is correct because the Lucknow Pact of 1916 combined cooperation with a significant constitutional compromise. The Indian National Congress and the All-India Muslim League reached agreement and presented a more united demand for political reforms, which was an important step toward broader anti-colonial cooperation. At the same time, Congress accepted separate electorates for Muslims, meaning that community-based representation remained part of the arrangement.
