Hint: Let us know about the history of Subhas Chandra Bose. Subhas had a brilliant career at Kolkata University. He went to England after completing his studies in India he passed Indian civil service examination; his national instinct prevented him from working for British crown. Therefore he resigned.

Complete answer:
Factors that lead to the formation of forward bloc included re-election of Subhash Chandra Bose as Congress president. Gandhiji was against it. Subhas Chandra Bose had socialist beliefs and revolutionary ideas. He was disqualified to be a member of any Congress Committee for three years. He announced that his left wing party would function within the Congress. Immediate objective of the forward bloc was liberation of India with the support of workers', peasants and all radical organizations. After ten month of independence this bloc would work for the establishment of socialist party. Following measures were suggested by Subhash Chandra Bose
a new monetary and credit system, several kinds of benefits for workers, right to work was declared as fundamental right of citizens, abolition of landlordism such as the zamindari system.

Hence, the correct answer is option (A).

Note:His national instinct prevented him from working for British crown. Therefore he resigned, he was a great leader, he was imprisoned ten times and spent eight years in prison. adventurous life was his major attraction. He was not in love with Gandhi though he was considered to be a political realist he was a man of action who believed in aggressive fighting for Swaraj. later on he took charge of INA and became its supreme commander.
