Answer

(R) is the reason for (A).

Explanation — Since the Second Round Table Conference was a failure and the British government refused to concede the immediate grant of dominion status, Gandhiji returned to India disappointed. Paired up with the fact that Viceroy Willingham refused an interview demand put up by Gandhiji during the Great Depression of 1930s, the Civil Disobedience Movement was renewed by Mahatma Gandhi.
