Question of The Day03-06-2023

_____ was executed at Lahore in November 1915 for his role in the Ghadar Conspiracy in February 1915.

Answer

Correct Answer : a ) Kartar Singh Sarabha

Explanation :

The Ghadar Mutiny, also called the Ghadar Conspiracy, was a plan to launch an all-India mutiny in the British Indian Army in February 1915 to end British rule in India.

It was formulated to initiate a pan-India rebellion against the British during World War I. The mutiny was planned to start in Punjab, followed by mutinies in Bengal and other parts of India. But, due to coordinate intelligence and police response, the plan was crushed before it started.

The conspiracy was followed by First Lahore Conspiracy Trial and Benaras Conspiracy Trial under which death sentences were awarded to a number of revolutionaries.

Kartar Singh Sarabha was an Indian revolutionary and was 15 when he became a member of the Ghadar Party.

In November 1915, at the Central Jail, Lahore, he was hanged at the age of 19 for his role in the movement.

Hence, (a) is the correct answer.
