The correct answer is All I, II and III.

Let us analyze each statement step-by-step to understand why they are all correct regarding Sir Tej Bahadur Sapru:

Statement I: He helped Annie Besant to build up the Central Hindu College at Banaras.
Sir Tej Bahadur Sapru was a prominent Indian lawyer, political leader, and educationist. He was closely associated with Dr. Annie Besant and played a vital role in supporting her educational endeavours, specifically in the establishment and development of the Central Hindu College at Banaras (Varanasi), which later became the nucleus of the Banaras Hindu University (BHU) in 1916. Thus, Statement I is correct.

Statement II: He entered politics during the Home Rule movement.
Tej Bahadur Sapru began his political journey actively during the Home Rule League movement (launched by Annie Besant and Bal Gangadhar Tilak around 1916). He joined the All India Home Rule League, advocating for self-government within the British Empire. This marked a key phase of his entry into mainstream Indian nationalist politics. Thus, Statement II is correct.

Statement III: He participated in the Round Table Conferences held between 1930 and 1932 in London.
Sapru was a highly respected Liberal leader who believed in dialogue and constitutional methods. He, along with other Liberal leaders like M. R. Jayakar, played an instrumental role as a mediator between the Indian National Congress and the British Government. He participated in all three Round Table Conferences (held in London in 1930, 1931, and 1932), representing the Indian Liberals and pushing for constitutional reforms leading to dominion status. Thus, Statement III is correct.

Since all three statements are historically accurate, the correct option is All I, II and III.
