Matching Social Reformers and Movements

This question requires matching prominent Indian social reformers and environmental activists from List - I with their significant contributions or associated movements/organizations listed in List - II.

Individual Movement Associations

Let's analyze each individual from List - I and identify their corresponding entry in List - II:

  • Sunder Lal Bahuguna (List - I: A) was a renowned Gandhian environmentalist and the leader of the Chipko Movement. The Chipko Movement was a non-violent protest in which villagers, mainly women, hugged trees to prevent them from being felled. This directly corresponds to List - II: II. Chipko Movement.
  • Medha Patkar (List - I: B) is a prominent social activist and leader known for her work with the Narmada Bachao Aandolan. This movement protested against the Narmada River dam projects. This matches with List - II: IV. Narmada Bachao Aandolan.
  • Jyotiba Phule (List - I: C) was a prominent social reformer from Maharashtra who championed the cause of the lower castes and women's education. He founded the Satya Shodak Samaj, an organization dedicated to social justice and equality. This corresponds to List - II: I. Satya Shodak Samaj.
  • Devendra Nath Tagore (List - I: D) was a key figure in the Bengal Renaissance and a leader of the Brahmo Samaj. He founded the Tattvabodhni Sabha, which aimed to promote the teachings of the Upanishads and reform Hinduism. This matches with List - II: III. Tattvabodhni Sabha.

  • A - II (Sunder Lal Bahuguna - Chipko Movement)
