  1. AIndra Narain Dwivedi
  2. BGauri Shankar Misra
  3. CJawaharlal NehruCorrect
  4. DMadan Mohan Malviya

Explanation

The correct answer is C because the Uttar Pradesh Kisan Sabha was established in February 1918 by Gauri Shankar Misra and Indra Narain Dwivedi with the active support and guidance of Madan Mohan Malviya. While Jawaharlal Nehru became deeply involved in the peasant movements of Oudh and the activities of the Kisan Sabha later in 1920, he was not among the original founders or primary associates during its initial formation in 1918. Therefore, Indra Narain Dwivedi, Gauri Shankar Misra, and Madan Mohan Malviya are directly credited with its inception, making Jawaharlal Nehru the correct choice for the person not associated with its formation.
