Explanation

The matching for the political ideas and their respective thinkers is as follows:

  • A-3 (Immanuel Kant): Kant's moral philosophy emphasizes that human beings possess intrinsic dignity and must be treated as ends in themselves, distinct from objects that have only a relative value or price.
  • B-4 (Mahatma Gandhi): In his seminal work Hind Swaraj, Gandhi defined Swaraj as self-rule or self-mastery, asserting that true independence is achieved only when individuals learn to rule themselves.
  • C-2 (Subhas Chandra Bose): Bose advocated for complete freedom, which included emancipation from political bondage as well as social and economic justice through the equal distribution of wealth.
  • D-1 (Aung San Suu Kyi): Her famous essay Freedom from Fear highlights that real freedom is freedom from fear, which is necessary to resist corruption and tyranny.

The correct sequence is 3-4-2-1.
