Correct Answer: A
Solution :
[a] Vande Mataram Movement: Student of collages in Hyderabad city organized a protest strike against the authorities refusing to let them sing Vande Mataram in their hostel prayer room. This strike rapidly spread to other parts of the state and many of the students who were compelled from the Hyderabad colleges left the State and continued their studies in Nagpur University in the Congress-ruled Central Provinces where they were given shelter by a hospitable Vice-Chancellor. This movement was extremely significant because it created a young and militant cadre that involved in activities as well as the leadership of the movement in later years.
