The Poona Pact of 1932 was for:

A. Muslims
B. Sikhs
C. Achhoots/Untouchables
D. Brahman
Correct Answer: C. Achhoots/Untouchables

The correct answer is Achhoots/Untouchables. The Poona Pact, signed in 1932, was an agreement between Mahatma Gandhi and B.R. Ambedkar concerning the electoral representation of the 'Depressed Classes' (also known as Achhoots or Untouchables) in British India. It replaced the separate electorates for the Depressed Classes, as proposed by the British Communal Award, with reserved seats within the general electorate in provincial legislatures. This ensured their representation while maintaining a unified Hindu electorate.

  • The pact was not primarily for Muslims or Sikhs, who had their own separate electoral arrangements.
  • Brahman refers to a specific caste and was not the focus of this pact, which aimed to uplift the marginalized.
