The early leaders in indian nationalism came primarily from which class a.urban elites educated in the west b.labor leaders c. landed peasants...

The closest answer to the question would be
A, Urban elites educated in the
west
, although this might not be entirely true. Most of India’s nationalistic
leaders were educated but not all of them got their education in the west. Some of the
notable national leaders include:


Bal Gangadhar Tilak, who
was also known as the Father of Indian unrest by the British. Tilak was a strong
supporter of self rule. He was born in a Chitpavan Brahmin family considered by other
Brahmins as a lower caste. He studied and graduated from Deccan College in Pune,
India.


Mohandas Mahatma Gandhi, known for his non-violent
and civil disobedience activities that helped his country achieve independence, Mahatma,
was born in a merchant caste family and studied law at the Inner Temple in
London.


Abul Kalam Azad, born in a family of scholars and
soldiers in Mecca, was a determined student who mastered six languages. He strongly
opposed British rule in India.


Ghaffar Khan, born to a
prosperous family in Peshawar Valley, he attended the British run Edward’s mission
school. He founded the Khudai Khidmatgar, which was a group of people who came together
to non-violently oppose British rule and oppression.


Other
nationalistic leaders include; Dr. Rajendra Prasad (first President of the Republic of
India), C. Rajagopalachari, K.B. Hedgewar and Jawaharlal Nehru (first Prime Minister of
India).
