Answer 1

The Correct Option is A

Concept: Chronological questions require arranging historical events according to their dates of occurrence.

Step 1: Determine the year of each event.

• Hunter Commission -- 1882.

• Simon Commission -- 1927.

• Cripps Mission -- 1942.

• Cabinet Mission -- 1946.

Step 2: Arrange them from earliest to latest. \[ 1882 \rightarrow 1927 \rightarrow 1942 \rightarrow 1946 \] \[ \text{Hunter} \rightarrow \text{Simon} \rightarrow \text{Cripps} \rightarrow \text{Cabinet} \]

Step 3: Match with the options. \[ iv \rightarrow i \rightarrow ii \rightarrow iii \] This corresponds to Option (A). Therefore, Option (A) is correct.
