D)

Correct Answer :   1942

The Quit India Movement was launched on August 8, 1942, during the All India Congress Committee session in Bombay (now Mumbai).

This event was pivotal in India's fight for independence from British rule.

The movement, led by Mahatma Gandhi, demanded the immediate withdrawal of British forces from India and was marked by Gandhi's famous "Do or Die" speech.

The date and year of this launch are significant, as they marked the beginning of a large-scale civil disobedience movement against British colonialism.
