Detailed Solution

The above statement is false.
The First World War transformed India's political and economic landscape and encouraged the country's growth of the National Movement. Many peasants forced to fight in the British Army throughout the war realised that British colonial power was exploiting people in Asia and Africa. They returned and resolved to defy British rule in India. The British government imposed massive levies on both individuals and businesses. The typical person began to face tremendous challenges due to the significant price rises caused by the spike in demand for war materials and the cost of the military. The British government also increased defence spending dramatically. Businesses reaped significant financial benefits from the conflict.
Hence the correct statement would be that the First World War did not create a new social and political situation.
