Answer: B
The idea was first put forward by M.N. Roy.
Manabendra Nath Roy, a pioneer of the communist movement in India, proposed in 1934 that India's constitution should be framed by a Constituent Assembly elected by the people. The Indian National Congress formally adopted the demand in 1935, and the Constituent Assembly was eventually set up under the Cabinet Mission Plan of 1946.
Rajendra Prasad later became the President of the Constituent Assembly, B.R. Ambedkar chaired its Drafting Committee, and Jawaharlal Nehru moved its Objectives Resolution, but none of them originated the idea.
