III. Anushilan Samiti | (C) Vikram Damodar Savarkar
IV. Kuka Movement | (D) Aurobindo Ghosh

Result
Your answer:  ·  Correct: A
Explanation

The correct answer is Option 1 (I-A, II-C, III-D, IV-B) based on the following historical associations:

  • Chittagong Armoury Raid (I-A): Led by Surya Sen in 1930, Kalpana Dutt was a prominent female revolutionary associated with this group who participated in the resistance against British rule.
  • Abhinav Bharat (II-C): This secret revolutionary society was founded by Vinayak Damodar (V.D.) Savarkar and his brother in 1904, evolving from the earlier "Mitra Mela."
  • Anushilan Samiti (III-D): One of the earliest revolutionary organizations in Bengal, its prominent leaders and ideologues included Aurobindo Ghosh and his brother Barindra Kumar Ghosh.
  • Kuka Movement (IV-B): This was a socio-religious movement within Sikhism that turned into a political campaign against the British. Guru Ram Singh was its most influential leader, advocating for non-cooperation and boycots.

Other options are incorrect as they misalign these leaders with their respective movements, such as incorrectly pairing Guru Ram Singh with the Anushilan Samiti in Option 2 or Savarkar with the Armoury Raid in Option 3.
