1942 मध्ये डॉक्टर बाबासाहेब आंबेडकर यांना कोणाच्या शिफारसीवरून व्हाइसरॉयच्या कार्यकारी मंडळात घेण्यात आले ?

The correct answer is Option A (Sir Roger Lumley).

Key Points:
• Dr. B. R. Ambedkar's Induction into Viceroy's Council (July 1942):
• In July 1942, Viceroy Lord Linlithgow expanded the Viceroy's Executive Council to include distinguished Indian non-officials.
• Sir Roger Lumley, the Governor of Bombay Presidency (1937–1943), strongly recommended Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar's name to Viceroy Linlithgow and the British Cabinet, highlighting his unmatched legal acumen, administrative capability, and leadership of the working class and depressed classes.
• Consequently, Dr. Ambedkar was appointed as the Member for Labour (Labour Minister) in the Viceroy's Executive Council (1942–1946).
• During this tenure, he pioneered major labor welfare legislation, establishing the 8-hour workday, Employees' State Insurance (ESI), Dearness Allowance, and river valley development policies (such as the Damodar Valley Corporation).
• Key Takeaway: Dr. Babasaheb Ambedkar was appointed to the Viceroy's Executive Council as Labour Member in 1942 on the recommendation of Sir Roger Lumley.
