In what year did Mukherjee resign from Nehru's cabinet?

  • 1930

  • 1945

  • 1950

  • 1960

Answer

Mukherjee resigned in 1950 due to disagreements over the Hindu Code Bill, which sought to reform Hindu personal laws related to marriage, inheritance, and adoption. He believed the bill was too radical and impinged upon traditional Hindu customs and values. His resignation led to a split in the Congress party and contributed to the rise of the Hindu nationalist movement in India.
