All India Kisan Sabha is a peasant front working for the rights of the farmers and the anti-feudal movement in India. The peasant movement intensified and spread across the rest of India. The formation of the Congress Socialist Party (CSP) in 1934 helped the Communists to work together with the INC, however temporarily. Then in April 1935, noted peasant leaders N. G. Ranga and E. M. S. Namboodiripad, then secretary and joint secretary respectively of South Indian Federation of Peasants and Agricultural Labour suggested the formation of an all-India farmers body. Soon all these radical developments culminated in the formation of the AIKS at the Lucknow session of the Indian National Congress on 11 April 1936. Swami Sahajanand, the militant founder of the Bihar Provincial Kisan Sabha (1929), was elected the President, and N. G. Ranga, the pioneer of the Kisan movement in Andhra and a renowned scholar of the agrarian problem, the General Secretary. The first session was greeted in person by Jawaharlal Nehru. Other participants included Ram Manohar Lohia, Sohan Singh Josh, Indulal Yagnik, Jayaprakash Narayan, Mohanlal Gautam, Kamal Sarkar, Sudhin Pramanik and Ahmed Din. The Conference resolved to bring out a Kisan Manifesto and a periodic bulletin edited by Indulal Yagnik. A Kisan Manifesto was finalized at the All-India Kisan Committee session in Bombay and formally presented to the Congress Working Committee to be incorporated into its forthcoming manifesto for the 1937 elections. From the above, it is clear that the first session was not greeted in person by Mahatma Gandhi. Thus, option 1 is correct.
