Correct Answer: Swatantra


Solution : The correct answer is Swatantra.

The Swatantra Party, active from 1959 to 1974, was an Indian political party championing classical liberal ideals. It was initiated by C. Rajagopalachari as a response to what he perceived, as the socialist and statist direction of the dominant Indian National Congress led by Jawaharlal Nehru. Rajagopalachari, a former Governor-General of India and recipient of the Bharat Ratna established the Swatantra Party to advocate for liberal principles. N. G. Ranga, a prominent figure, served as a founding member and president of the Swatantra Party for several years.
