Answer 1

Correct Answer - Option 3 : Both A and B

The Correct answer is Both A and B.

• The sudden suspension of the Non-Cooperation Movement broke the high hopes raised earlier by the promise of swaraj.
• Many young people began to question the very basic strategy of the national leadership and its emphasis on non-violence and began to look for alternatives.
• Many were drawn to the idea that violent methods alone would free India. Thus, the Revolutionary movement again became attractive.
• Thus nearly all the major new leaders of the revolutionary terrorist politics, for example, Jogesh Chandra Chatterjea, Surya Sen, Jatin Das, Chandrashekhar Azad, Bhagat Singh, Sukhdev, Shiv Varma, Bhagwati Charan Vohra and Jaidev Kapur, had been enthusiastic participants in the nonviolent Non-Cooperation Movement. Hence statement A is correct.
• The revolutionaries in northern India were the first to emerge out.
• They recognized the leadership of Ramprasad Bismil, Jogesh Chatterjea
• Sachindranath Sanyal's Bandi Jiwan served as a textbook for the revolutionary movement. Hence statement B is correct.
