The correct matching of the nationalist publications with their respective founders/editors is as follows: Kudi Arasu was a Tamil weekly journal founded by E.V. Ramaswami Naicker (Periyar) in 1925 to promote the Self-Respect Movement. Kisan Bulletin was the periodical associated with the All India Kisan Sabha, which was started under the leadership of Indulal Yagnik . The Bombay Chronicle was an English-language newspaper started in 1910 by Sir Pherozeshah Mehta, a prominent lawyer and nationalist leader. Bhawani Mandir was a revolutionary pamphlet written by Aurobindo Ghosh in 1905, which invoked the goddess Bhawani to inspire the youth toward the cause of national independence. Therefore, the correct sequence is A-4, B-3, C-2, D-1, which corresponds to option 1.
