What is the correct sequence of the following events ? I. Tilak’s Home Rule League II. Kamagatamaru Incident III. Mahatma Gandhi’s arrival in India Select the correct answer using the codes given below : Codes :
Explanation
The Komagata Maru episode occurred in 1914, when the ship was turned away from Vancouver and later faced repression on return, marking it as the earliest event among the three [1]. Mahatma Gandhi returned to India in January 1915 after his South Africa sojourn, placing his arrival after the Komagata Maru incident [2]. Bal Gangadhar Tilak’s Home Rule League was formed in 1916 (Tilak’s organization in April 1916, alongside Annie Besant’s September 1916 initiative), making this the latest event [3]. Therefore the chronological order is II (Komagata Maru, 1914) → III (Gandhi’s arrival, Jan 1915) → I (Tilak’s Home Rule League, 1916).
