Consider the following freedom fighters :
- 1.Barindra Kumar Ghosh
- 2.Jogesh Chandra Chatterjee
- 3.Rash Behari Bose
Who of the above was/were actively associated with the Ghadar Party ?
Show answer
Answer: D. Rash Behari Bose worked with the Ghadar Party to plan the February 1915 uprising in Punjab and among Indian soldiers. Barindra Kumar Ghosh was a leader of the Anushilan and Jugantar groups of Bengal (Alipore case). Jogesh Chandra Chatterjee was linked with Anushilan Samiti and later the Hindustan Republican Association. So 3 only.
Watch for: All three were revolutionaries, so students include Bengal revolutionaries in the Ghadar group too.
Why the other options are wrong
- A. Wrong because neither Barindra Ghosh nor Jogesh Chatterjee was a Ghadar leader.
- B. Wrong because Jogesh Chatterjee was with Anushilan and HRA, not Ghadar.
- C. Wrong because Barindra Ghosh was with Anushilan/Jugantar, not Ghadar.
