In which of the following years was VD Savarkar sent to Andaman Jail by the British?
1911
Correct answer: 1911
Vinayak Damodar Savarkar was arrested in London in March 1910 in connection with the Nashik Conspiracy Case (linked to the assassination of Collector A.M.T. Jackson) and deported to India.
He was tried in 1910–11 and awarded two life sentences (totalling 50 years of transportation). Following the verdict, he was transported to the Cellular Jail in the Andaman Islands ("Kala Pani") in July 1911, where he was incarcerated until 1921 before being moved to Ratnagiri Jail on the mainland.
Hence, the year Savarkar was sent to the Andaman Jail by the British is 1911.
