Correct Answer:
D. None
Explanation:
Regarding the Congress Socialist Party (CSP) and the statements given:
CSP advocated the boycott of British goods and evasion of taxes as part of their anti-colonial and socialist struggles.
It did not advocate the establishment of the dictatorship of the proletariat, as the party supported democratic socialism rather than a Marxist-Leninist dictatorship.
It did not support separate electorates for minorities and oppressed classes; rather, it aimed to transcend communal divisions through class solidarity and opposed communal separations.
Therefore, statements 1 is correct, while 2 and 3 are incorrect.
Hence, the correct answer is (d) None of the statements (as per the given options and the correctness of statements). The correct interpretation is that only statement 1 is correct, but since the options do not present that alone, and 2 and 3 are wrong, (d) None fits best.
