A
Purna Swaraj
💡 Explanation:
26 January 1930 was declared as 'Purna Swaraj' (Complete Independence) Day by the Indian National Congress under Jawaharlal Nehru's presidency. When India became a republic on 26 January 1950, this date was chosen to honor the memory of that independence declaration. The Dandi March (1930), Non-Cooperation (1920-22), and Quit India (1942) were different movements.
