Who is remembered as a major leader of the Ahom revolt?

Gomdhar Konwar

The Ahom revolt was an early nineteenth-century resistance in Assam against the attempt of the British East India Company to extend its control after the Burmese conflicts. Gomdhar Konwar is remembered as one of its principal leaders. He and his supporters opposed the loss of Ahom political authority and local independence. Therefore, the correct answer is option A, Gomdhar Konwar. The other names belong to different periods, movements, or regions and do not match this revolt.

The key to the question is matching the leader with Assam and the Ahom resistance. Gomdhar Konwar was connected with the rebellion that began in 1828, when opposition grew against British interference. Mahatma Gandhi led mass movements in the twentieth century, Bal Gangadhar Tilak was a major nationalist leader in western India, and Khan Abdul Ghaffar Khan led movements in the North-West Frontier region. Thus option A is the historically appropriate match, and the supplied answer is correct.
