Match the List – I with List – II and choose the correct answer :List – I (Organization) List – II (Headquarter) I. Swadeshi Sevak Home a. Vancouver II. United India House b. Seattle III. Yugantar Ashram c. San Francisco IV. INA or Azad Hind Fauj d. Rangoon
I – a, II – b, III – c, IV – d
The correct matching is I – a, II – b, III – c, IV – d, option 4 — the straight one-to-one order.
| Organisation | Headquarters | What it was |
|---|---|---|
| Swadeshi Sevak Home | Vancouver | Founded by Guru Dutt Kumar in 1909 among the Indian, largely Punjabi, immigrants of British Columbia; it published Swadesh Sewak and organised against the discriminatory immigration laws of Canada |
| United India House | Seattle | Set up in 1910 by Taraknath Das and G. D. Kumar as a centre for Indian students and workers on the American Pacific coast |
| Yugantar Ashram | San Francisco | Headquarters of the Ghadar Party, founded in 1913 with Sohan Singh Bhakna as president and Lala Har Dayal as secretary; the weekly Ghadar was printed there in Urdu, Punjabi and other languages |
| INA or Azad Hind Fauj | Rangoon | Formed in South-East Asia in 1942 and revived under Subhas Chandra Bose in 1943; the Provisional Government of Azad Hind moved its headquarters from Singapore to Rangoon in Burma in January 1944 for the campaign towards Imphal and Kohima |
How to reason it out. Three of the four organisations belong to the revolutionary movement among Indians on the west coast of North America in the years before the First World War, and the fourth belongs to the Second World War in South-East Asia. Fixing IV with Rangoon at once eliminates options 1 and 2, both of which pair the INA with a North American city. Between the remaining two, the Ghadar Party’s Yugantar Ashram at San Francisco is the best-known fact of the group, and it appears as III – c only in option 4.
Why these bodies matter. They show that the Indian revolutionary movement was international from an early stage. The Ghadar Party in particular sent hundreds of its members back to India in 1914-15 to raise a mutiny in the army, a plan that was betrayed and crushed in the Lahore Conspiracy Case, but its literature and its veterans influenced Indian politics for decades afterwards.
Hence, the answer is I – a, II – b, III – c, IV – d.
