Indian Freedom Movement

Correct answer: C. 1930

Explanation: The direct answer is C, 1930. The Civil Disobedience Movement began in 1930 when Mahatma Gandhi started the Salt March from Sabarmati Ashram to Dandi. At Dandi, he broke the colonial salt law, showing civil disobedience: peacefully refusing to obey an unjust law. Option A, 1920, is associated mainly with the beginning of the Non-Cooperation Movement. Option B, 1928, was important for constitutional and nationalist developments, but it was not the starting year of the Civil Disobedience Movement. Option C, 1930, is correct because the Dandi March and Salt Satyagraha began in that year. Option D, 1942, is the year of the Quit India Movement. The useful sequence is Non-Cooperation in 1920, Civil Disobedience in 1930, and Quit India in 1942. Memory cue: Salt March equals 1930.

Explanation: The slogan “Delhi Chalo” was associated with the Indian National Army, also called the Azad Hind Fauj. Subhas Chandra Bose used this call to inspire the army and its supporters to march toward Delhi and end British rule in India. The slogan expressed determination, military action, and the hope of establishing an independent Indian government. The INA fought alongside Japan in the eastern theatre during the Second World War, but the slogan is remembered mainly as part of Netaji’s leadership and the freedom struggle.

Among the options, the British Indian Army served the colonial government, while the Maratha and Sikh armies belong to earlier historical contexts and were not associated with this slogan. The Indian National Army is the only suitable answer. Therefore option A is correct. For revision, connect Netaji Subhas Chandra Bose, Azad Hind Fauj, and “Delhi Chalo” as one group.

Correct answer: A. Ali Brothers

Explanation: The direct answer is A, Ali Brothers. Muhammad Ali and Shaukat Ali were brothers and important leaders associated with the Khilafat Movement. Their names are often studied with the Non-Cooperation Movement because Mahatma Gandhi supported cooperation with the Khilafat cause for a period. Option A is correct because the pair was commonly called the Ali Brothers. Option B, Lal Bal Pal, refers to Lala Lajpat Rai, Bal Gangadhar Tilak and Bipin Chandra Pal, three nationalist leaders. Option C, Trimurti, is a general term for a three-part group and does not identify these two brothers. Option D, Sardar Dal, is not the established name for Muhammad Ali and Shaukat Ali. Do not confuse their title with the name of their movement: Ali Brothers were linked especially with Khilafat.

Correct answer: A. Bipin Chandra Pal

Explanation: “Lal-Bal-Pal” is a collective name for three prominent leaders of the assertive nationalist or Extremist group in the Indian freedom movement: Lala Lajpat Rai, Bal Gangadhar Tilak, and Bipin Chandra Pal. In this expression, “Lal” refers to Lala Lajpat Rai, “Bal” refers to Bal Gangadhar Tilak, and “Pal” refers to Bipin Chandra Pal. They supported stronger political action, self-reliance, and opposition to policies of colonial rule, especially during the Swadeshi period.

The question asks who is represented by “Pal.” Option A, Bipin Chandra Pal, matches the final part of the three-name expression. Bal Gangadhar Tilak is “Bal,” and Lala Lajpat Rai is “Lal,” so options B and C represent the other two leaders. Motilal Nehru was not one of this trio. Therefore option A is correct. The order can be remembered directly as Lal–Lajpat Rai, Bal–Tilak, and Pal–Bipin Chandra Pal.
