The Wavell Plan was first introduced at the Shimla Conference in

The Wavell Plan was presented by Viceroy Lord Wavell in 1945 during the Shimla Conference. The proposal aimed to include Indian leaders from both the Congress and the Muslim League in an expanded Executive Council with equal representation for Hindus and Muslims.

Although unsuccessful it showed the growing pressure for Indian self governance and became part of the constitutional journey toward partition. Therefore the correct year was 1945 which matches option C.
