The correct answer is Jawaharlal Nehru .
The President of the Indian National Congress when the resolution of ‘Purna Swaraj’ was passed was Jawaharlal Nehru. The resolution was passed on December 31, 1929, at the Lahore session of the Indian National Congress, and it declared the Congress’s demand for complete independence or ‘Purna Swaraj’ from British rule. The resolution also called for the observance of January 26, 1930, as ‘Independence Day’ and for the launch of a nationwide Civil Disobedience Movement to achieve independence. Nehru, who was a prominent leader of the Congress at the time, played a crucial role in drafting and presenting the resolution at the session.
