A Correct answer
Explanation

The Simon Commission, arriving in 1928 with no Indian members, triggered nationwide protests marked by the first all-India hartal on October 30. The Chaura Chauri incident (1922) led to Gandhi suspending Non-Cooperation, the 1919 Act provoked protests but no nationwide hartal, and Poorna Swaraj (1929) led to Civil Disobedience later.
