Understanding the MCQ: Identifying Wrongly Matched Historical Pairs

This question asks us to identify the pair that is incorrectly matched from the given options. Each option lists a historical association or event along with a name. We need to evaluate the historical accuracy of these pairings to find the one that is wrong.

Analyzing the Options

• Option 1: Comrades Association : P. Sundaraiah

  • The Comrades Association was established in Calcutta around 1931 by students, mainly from Presidency College, and was associated with the broader student and nationalist movements of Bengal.
  • P. Sundaraiah (Paturi Sundarayya) was a significant leader of the Communist Party of India (CPI) and later the Communist Party of India (Marxist) (CPI(M)), primarily active in Andhra Pradesh. He was deeply involved in the Telangana uprising and peasant movements.
  • Historical records do not link P. Sundaraiah directly to the leadership or founding of the Comrades Association in Calcutta. Therefore, this match appears to be incorrect.

• Option 2: All Hyderabad Students Union : Burugula Narsinga Rao

  • The All Hyderabad Students Union was an important organization during the pre-independence era in the Hyderabad State.
  • Burugula Narsinga Rao was a notable political activist and leader associated with various movements in Hyderabad, including student activism and later the Communist Party. He was indeed involved in student politics in Hyderabad.
  • This match is considered historically plausible and generally accepted as correct in the context of student movements in Hyderabad.

• Option 3: Attack on British Residency : Turrebaz Khan

  • The Attack on the British Residency in Hyderabad was a significant event during the Indian Mutiny of 1857.
  • Turrebaz Khan was a key figure and a brave soldier who actively participated in and led the attack against the British Residency in Hyderabad during the 1857 uprising.
  • This match is historically accurate and considered correct.

• Option 4: Nizam's Subjects League : Sir Nizamat Jung

  • The Nizam's Subjects League was a political organization that represented the interests of the subjects within the Nizam's Dominion (Hyderabad State).
  • Sir Nizamat Jung was a prominent official and statesman in the Hyderabad State, known for his administrative reforms and involvement in political affairs. He was associated with such organizations representing the state's subjects.
  • This match is considered historically correct.

Conclusion: The Incorrect Match

Based on the historical context and associations of the individuals and organizations mentioned:

• The Comrades Association is linked to student activities in Bengal, not to P. Sundaraiah, who was a prominent communist leader from Andhra Pradesh.
• The other options represent historically accurate pairings.

Therefore, the wrongly matched pair is Comrades Association : P. Sundaraiah.
